Dwight Howard ties Tim Duncan



Yep, Howard is 10 years younger but still can't beat old Death 'n' Taxes.



Both have 91 doubles-doubles in games won over the past three season, regular season & playoffs combined.



This is amazing, in this time period, Tim went from age 35 to age 38, and barely plays 30 minutes a game. "Superman" went from age 26 to 28, dead center in a typical player's physical and statistical prime.



Here are the Facts;

The 'games won' is a stupid addition as Howard has been on some much worse teams

That is a big deal. Howard can jack up his stats in lost games, while Duncan builds up a big lead and then sits out. Lost of players put up nice stats with crap teams. 'Member RJ? Abdur-Raheem? The list goes on.

"double doubles in games won"? no need to cherrypick obscure stats to prove Duncan is better than Howard.

He's certainly not as overrated as he used to be. He's a good player, but everyone knows now that he's Larry Holmes and not Muhammad Ali.
