Then it must really be over for lebron.....

Lebron lead team vs Duncan led team in finals matchups

Lebron 1 ring
Duncan 2 rings

[TaLvsCuaL]

Born in 1976 and still being a excellent player. Who cares about stats

[FKAri]

Luckiest superstar of his generation :applause:

[kennethgriffin]

but hes still a defensive anchor and the real leader of sanantonio right

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Should have retired three seasons ago. He's done.

[Springsteen]

but hes still a defensive anchor and the real leader of sanantonio right

Yes, yes he is. :applause:

[Kargo]

Luckiest superstar of all time :applause:

:cheers:

[rmt]

Should have retired three seasons ago. He's done.

And not garner 1 ring, 2 All-Star, 1 All-NBA 1st team, 1 All-NBA 3rd team, 2 All-Defensive teams?

[kennethgriffin]

Yes, yes he is. :applause:

Duncan has 0 rebounds "still an anchor and leader"

imagine if Kobe had 0 points playing a full game.

Well Kobe is 2 years younger and is 10x worse player right now

[ImKobe]

Well Kobe is 2 years younger and is 10x worse player right now

Kobe has more mileage on his legs

for what it's worth, Kobe's been a decent defender and playmaker this year

[kennethgriffin]

i think kobes a better player still but hes trapped in a worse body


give kobe duncans achilles tendon and he averages 25+ppg immediately

Not sure how that is an accomplishment considering Davis has averaged about 65 games a year for his career. And will not play more than 70 games this year.

[LikeMike]

Luckiest superstar of his generation :applause:

If you establish a culture of consistency, you earned it, it isn't luck.

Kobe was lucky by being handed multiple HOFs, but he scared them away.

[Smoke117]

meltdown. When you gotta go after old man to raise up kobrick...pathetic.

[Smoke117]

Exactly. I think Tim Duncan is overrated...he was never close to as good as David Robinson prime to prime, peak to peak...but that is just absurd to hate him now.

[RoseCity07]

I see Wesley Matthews went 0-8 from three tonight. That has to be the first time he hasn't made a 3 with more that many attempts.

[AirFederer]

Well that`s unfortunate but he was never one to play for stats. Probably means nothing to him next to that they lost the game

[Hittin_Shots]

Duncan has 0 rebounds "still an anchor and leader"

imagine if Kobe had 0 points playing a full game.

But 0/20 looks worse than no rebounds.

[HighFlyer23]

Most overrated player of the generation

Realistically 15-20 all time

[DaOldLion]

look at all of these excuses, and people seriously wonder why other posters ask why Duncan's missteps are all shoved under the rug??

[HighFlyer23]

Duncan is a system player whose success can be attributed to the franchise he plays for

He was a role player in some of the championship runs

[Hittin_Shots]

look at all of these excuses, and people seriously wonder why other posters ask why Duncan's missteps are all shoved under the rug??

Duncan's missteps? The fact it took 20 years for him to go reboundless playing less than 20mins in the game sounds like a positive to me.

[Shih508]

Kobe has more mileage on his legs

for what it's worth, Kobe's been a decent defender and playmaker this year

How does Kobe have more mileage? Duncan has played more NBA games and playoff games than Kobe while also played 4 year college basketball.

Kobe's longevity is just like his scoring ability - Very overrated.

[bigkingsfan]

8.7 boards and 1.8 blks in 27 mins before this game, basically his career pace per 40 mins.

[Mr. Jabbar]

i think kobes a better player still but hes trapped in a worse body

this. these idiots never realize kobe went through achilles tear

[DaOldLion]

Duncan hasn't played 40 mpg for the regular season in 14 years

[Springsteen]

Duncan hasn't played 40 mpg for the regular season in 14 years

Because he knows how to lead the team without being on the floor at all times and not chuck up shots at his point in his career, unlike some players.

[bigkingsfan]

The point is that he still rebounds at a similar rate. Just the reduced minutes.

[DaOldLion]

Because he knows how to lead the team without being on the floor at all times and not chuck up shots at his point in his career, unlike some players.

nice to see how insecure Duncan fans can be at the challenge of anything, I couldn't care less about the "some players" you're referring to. And glad to know we are propping up players for being good while on the bench. Must be tough playing with the DPOY/FMVP who averages 21/8 alongside LMA and being the 2nd best PF on the team..

Anywayz there is no point in using "per 40mpg" like that poster was when the player you're referencing hasn't played 40mpg in 14 years.

[Mr. Jabbar]

damn :lol

[rmt]

Sounds like its the Kobe stans who are insecure. Rest up Timmy - save yourself for the playoffs - one more run.

[T_L_P]

2nd best PF to Aldridge? Duncan is averaging 11/9/3/2 on .595 TS% and playing very good defense, while Aldridge is averaging 15/9/2 on .495 TS%.

Duncan is 3rd in team PER, 2nd in Win Shares, 3rd in WS/48 and 3rd in Box +/-. How many other 40 year old can say they were one of the two or three best players on a contender?

Kobe isn't even one of the two or three best players at 36 on a tanking team. :oldlol:

[Dresta]

Duncan hasn't played 40 mpg for the regular season in 14 years
Well that's pretty irrelevant considering no one has played that many regular season minutes in like 5 years, when Monta Ellis did it. Guys entering the league post 2010 will probably never play 40mpg in the regular season a single time in their entire careers.

[SexSymbol]

Because he knows how to lead the team without being on the floor at all times and not chuck up shots at his point in his career, unlike some players.
Because he can't physically, and his team is great enough to compensate his absence on the court

[pastis]

Because he can't physically, and his team is great enough to compensate his absence on the court

this. so duncan can save his energy for the playoffs. and this at least since 2006. other have to carry scrub to playoffs and are exhausted at the beginning of the PO.

dont hate on spurs or duncan for that. praise the spurs and pop:applause:

When Duncan retires you will probably become the 3ball of him...aka never shutting the **** up about a retired player in the past nobody cares to discuss.

:lol That is the biggest insult you can give someone. He better reject b4 he gets the 3ball curse.:lol

[gcvbcat]

duncan can't grab a rebound & kobe can't shoot a 3. **** this, basketball is boring. **** it.

we need nude basketball refs now.

women should be sex slaves.

[dhsilv]

Exactly. I think Tim Duncan is overrated...he was never close to as good as David Robinson prime to prime, peak to peak...but that is just absurd to hate him now.

Depends on if you count the playoffs in that analysis. Regular season Robinson is the most dominate center since wilt, shaq included.

[Dr Hawk]

Because he knows how to lead the team without being on the floor at all times and not chuck up shots at his point in his career, unlike some players.

No, because he knows he is in a stacked team with the GOAT coach and there is no need to play a lot of minutes to get the W

[dhsilv]

this. these idiots never realize kobe went through achilles tear

Not getting hurt is part of being one of the all time greats. Bird would be even higher on people's list with 5 more back pain free years. Just didn't happen Tmac and Grant Hill never get hurt where do they rank all time?

[dhsilv]

Duncan certainly COULD have played more minutes most of those years. It just wasn't needed and now it is paying off with him still being the in league and playing well years later than most people thought he would be. Duncan was willing to listen to pop when he was told he wanted to save his minutes. That is something a LOT of players struggle with and many would have fought it.

Duncan being coachable and willing to listen to others is a big part of the culture he's created for the spurs and why they've been so successful.

[T_L_P]

When Duncan retires you will probably become the 3ball of him...aka never shutting the **** up about a retired player in the past nobody cares to discuss.

I honestly don't think I've made a Duncan-related thread in like 6 months.

Stop it.

the totals mean jack shit when Duncan has played considerably more games.

the totals mean jack shit when Duncan has played considerably more games.

So old Duncan has played more gmes than young Davis

[Springsteen]

Because he can't physically, and his team is great enough to compensate his absence on the court

Compensating =/= Winning titles

You really think the Spurs would've beat the Heat without Duncan?

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/d/duncati01/on-off/2016/

The team is better in almost every statistic when he's on the floor this season. And it's been that way since he got here.
