+1. Duncan is more impactfull defensively, but Bird isnt slouch there either. Pretty much everywhere else Bird has a clear advantage. TD is great scorer, Bird is GOAT-like. TD is clutch, Bird is GOAT-like clutch, TD is a good passer, Bird is GOAT-passer in his position, etc.

Re: Tim Duncan vs Larry Bird
There needs to be more discussion and in-depth analysis than the cliche "it's not close".
This a question I actually wanted to see more talk about too.

It's a very interesting question. I actually have a lot to say on this topic, but I'm really busy for the next week and a half (not that my opinion is particularly important, but I think this is definitely a comparison worthy of discussion). If this thread is still active at that point I'll post my thoughts (perhaps I'll bump it anyway).

I could give you a ton of reasons, but winning 4 titles and winning 50 or more games 14 consecutive years (never been done before...previous high was 12)...all while playing with by far the least amount of help any superstar to win that amount has had...I'll take Duncan.
I can't even imagine what the results would have been like if Duncan had played on teams even close to as talented as Bird's Celtics.

Re: Tim Duncan vs Larry Bird
bird easily. bird is a legend he could do anything on the court. only thing duncan can do is play defense the rest of his game is average at best.

And I can't imagine what what the results would have been like if Bird had played in a 29-30-team joke of the league with more than 70% pure garbage teams.
This goes both ways.
