Duncan finished the game +17 over his 33 minutes even though they lost by 5 points.
In the 15 minutes he was on the bench, the Thunder outscored them by 23 points.
Duncan was +18 in the previous home game and lead the Spurs in that stat the last home game.
Maybe it's not so much that Duncan is the key guy when he's on the floor -- it's just that his replacements all suck? I don't know, I don't watch.
