    Default Better Player: Hakeem or Duncan

    I've always been firmly in the Hakeem camp. Obviously Timmy is more accomplished but this is about who the better player is.

    At peak Hakeem.
    Longevity its Duncan.

    Overall its tough because one spent half his career as a PF.

    Hakeem and its not close. Peak Hakeem is easily a Top 5 GOAT. Duncan also played more C than PF yet he is considered a PF! He was 6´11 ft and got outplayed by broken down old fat Barkley most times.

    Owning Shaq isn't what I'd call weak

    You're underestimating how dominant Shaq was as soon as he entered the league.

    Duncan is more experienced and more technical, but I think he will be better. Although both are quite professional.

    If you just go by peak, I agree with you.
    But you can't deny Duncan's positive effect on a franchise. Never missing the playoffs. Thats mighty impressive.

    Look at the Spurs now.

    Hard to say tbh. Hakeem has a better peak but duncan has better longevity. Plus Hakeem was known to be difficult and not the greatest teammate early on in his career and duncan was great leader from jump.

    Hakeem was probably the better player but duncan had the better career so gotta with duncan overall
