Nice!
I don’t do veiled shots. I throw unrecoverable left hooks at jokic…. When I take a shot at him. What i said was a fact….and that goes for any championship team. 2 rings solidifies you. This has nothing to do with “your boy”

Look at em…..blind hating . I didn’t know anything about their history going all the way back to college but just by the OP. I already knew what time it was. I don’t tip ppl off when I read em though, cause they start trying to hide it. Tip for everyone
“He was a solid player” he tries to catch himself lol but he just can’t help himself “playing on one team your whole career changes everything”. “You know his teammate was really the man on that college team”…. lol hating azz. Man went on a 4 min rant blind hating…envy is terrible fellas…and ya can’t even see it
He was the one who was the #1 recruit in highschool. Timmy was a nobody coming out of highschool. And he had to sit and watch as this guy beat him in college, become the #1 pick, and then pass him as the greatest pf of all time… n he at to sit there and witness it….. he hates him

Re: I'm listening to Rasheed Wallace talk KG vs Duncan...
Yikes.
Yea that’s why you never should take anything seriously that clearly passionate ex-players have to say. Isiah Thomas has very recently gotten over Jordan. And the only reason he got over hating on Bird was because of Jordan.
People have their biases and just because they played against everyone doesn’t mean they’re objective.
Although.. it’s laughable now to compare KG to Duncan I guess but in the 03-04 range when both were at the absolute peak of their powers it was very tough to pick who was better. Probably would have gone with Duncan myself, as many would have, but it was a razor thin margin.

Re: I'm listening to Rasheed Wallace talk KG vs Duncan...
Yes, Duncan was a nobody coming out of high school because he was just LEARNING the game (after switching from swimming).
Rasheed:
I don't know if he would have been able to carry a team early on the way that KG did. KG was everything for that team. Tim Duncan didn't become that until he was seasoned and that was when he got the likes/lights? to play with Manu ... he got to grow into it... to carry his team. In the prime - from the door - I would say KG.

I’d be more interested in his feelings on how they had to be guarded and approached than the hot take aspects.
He has a lot of weird things to say and unexpected preferences in the clips I’ve seen.
Yea, I was about to say this. Robinson led the team in scoring in 1998, so maybe he meant Duncan's rookie year? And like you mentioned, 3/4 of the games, Robinson had more FGA. So it's possible Sheed is just thinking of the first year. But anyone who watched '99 onward knew who the ball was going to.

Yea not to mention Duncan beat KG in the playoffs in '99. '99 was actually a historic run. The Spurs went 15-2 against their opponents. The only better performance up until that time might have been the '83 Sixers, and that was a manufactured team due to Moses joining them.
