Michael Jordan Completely Dismisses Tim Duncan

[Koolaid_Man]

If Timmy is truly the measuring stick then how in the fuck do you explain this MJ diss by omission..4 titles this decade for Timmy, MVP's, etc etc...but no mention from MJ...when MJ is thinking about who the best player is, who he deems a worthy opponent he simply spells it out..no if's and's or but's about it...

and for his loyalties Kobe rewards him with this:

Maybe because ever since Kobe came into the NBA they compared him to Jordan and because they play the same position.

I think Tim Duncan was/is an amazing player, with a relatively unique skillset. That said, he'll never be remembered by fans at large as true "icon" the way that Kobe is, or Shaq is, or any other number of "larger-than-life" players.

He's a historic defender, but I don't think anyone was afraid to try and score on him. He's a great scorer, but I don't think anyone was afraid of defending him. Some players evoke that "Oh crap, he's on fire!" feeling, but I don't think I've ever gotten that about Duncan.

Duncan made a ton of plays where you would get pissed off at your team for trying to challenge him. He often seemed to always be in the right spot to alter a shot, which is underrated.

Tim Duncan is the best player of the last decade. I don't even know why this is a question.

When you look at how much he has accomplished, his stats, his accolades, his championship rings, his status as the most team-oriented superstar the league has ever seen... Tim Duncan is the greatest player of his generation.

Who the fuck cares what Jordan thinks? He drafted Kwame Brown. Great judge of talent there.

truth be told MJ uttered the first name on his brain...he just threw Tim there so he wouldn't have to field questions afterward....but even if he did mention Timmy as gesture of good will MJ has on more than one occasion recently said Kobe was his guy and the best player in the league and if MJ's word isn't enough for you hatas then check out the comments on Kobe Vol 1-3...there's no debating that...:toast

and one more thing...the greatest player would never ever let a single player own him this much over their careers as Kobe has owned Tim...don't beleive me check this out..there is no way in hell Kobe is supposed to be partaking in a dunk fest over Duncan to such a degree...

[Rummpd]

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/187016-michael-jordan-is-not-the-greatest-player-in-nba-history

"Kareem, a six-time MVP, a six-time NBA champion, the all-time leader in points, a 19-time all-star, and possibly the greatest passing big man and one of the greatest interior defenders of all-time, is the greatest player in NBA history"

Apples to oranges but if I am starting a team I would pick Kareem Abdul Jabbar over Jordan any day as it is so much easier find perimeter scoring etc.

To me it impossible to truly assess the greatest ever but no one can every argue that Jordan had a shot as impossible to guard as that of Kareem or was as consistently as great over the years Kareem was. Put the MVPs and titles together and Kareem's case is as valid as Jordan's but it is a fun arguement that Jordan now always considered the GOAT when there are a handful of other players who can make a similar case.

Bob May the Boston Columnist said on ESPN that Larry Bird was once asked if Jordan was the greatest basketball player he ever saw and responded curtly: "one of two"

How honestly do you pick between the true legends?

[Zelophehad]

Every book you read about Kareem says he had the same weakness; he couldn't deal real well with physical play, and Moses was about as physical as they come. Its well known that Moses owned his ass. I'm not sure what "tapes" Blessings watched but its common knowledge.



How honestly do you pick between the true legends?

If they ever got dick slapped in a one on one matchup regularly versus a certain player, they aren't the greatest ever. Thats a good place to start.

You're a parrot that has apparently never seen either play.

Jordan was dick slapped so bad by a young Kobe he refused to guard him the rest of the game to avoid further embarrassment. Let's apply that to your NBA 'book-learned' logic.

You're a parrot that has apparently never seen either play.

The basketball analysis of a random fan who thinks Andrew Bynum is a dominant center versus David Halberstam, Roland Lazenby, and Pete Newell :lol Who all say Kareem was soft and needed to play next to an enforcer like Kermit Washington or else he would get bullied.

Poor Kareem :cry :cry He gets picked on. :cry :cry

Please stop picking on me, mean centers. :cry :cry

I can't believe your bringing up one game, when Jordan bested Kobe one on one regularly in his second threepeat days. Schooled him for the whole world to see in the All-Star game as well.

You would be a lot more frightened by a Duncan led team if he was wearing purple and gold his whole career, because the media would tell you to be... that's all it is.

Even small market teams had players I've been worried about/scared of. But I don't think anyone who went against Duncan was intimdated by him. Frustrated? Sure. But not intimidated.

Again, this takes nothing away from TD's play. The man is great, and like I said, is almost always in the right position. I just don't think he's the type of person you see where you say, "Oh crap, that guy is going to block everything" like, say Ben Wallace, Mutumbo, etc etc. TD just doesn't look physically imposing.

Everytime I watched Duncan play, for the most part, it wasn't alot of "Wow" moves. It's mostly just great play, good footwork, good hands, etc etc. He wears a player down mentally. But I don't think his "highlight reel" is half as full as other superstars.

What does Wilt Chamberlain think? Lets ask him..

Oh wait..

No way in hell I would ever get into an argument debating the greatness of Kareem Abdul Jabbar. The dude should replace Jerry West on the NBA logo.

No ones arguing Kareem wasn't great; he's a top 5-6 player in history. I just don't think he can be the GOAT because Moses used to kick his piss flaps in on a regular basis from 1977 on.


You're a parrot that has apparently never seen either play.

Jordan was dick slapped so bad by a young Kobe he refused to guard him the rest of the game to avoid further embarrassment. Let's apply that to your NBA 'book-learned' logic.

I don't know how I missed this nugget. So during Jordan's second three-peat Kobe had one good meaningless regular season game (in which Jordan still outplayed him: http://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/199712170CHI.html) during which the 34 year old Jordan passed him off to Pippen who was an all-time great defender, in 20 point LA loss only laker fan remembers, meanwhile in the 1981 playoff series between the Rockets and Lakers, Moses got 38 and 23 in a close game one win including 17 second half rebounds and the lakers had Jim Chones guarding him because the 34 year old Kareem didn't want none of that. And in the clinching game when Moses put up a 20/20 the Lakers had Jim landsberger guard him in the fourth quarter.

So if 35 year old Jordan supposedly didn't want to guard 20 year old Kobe in some meaningless regular season Bulls blowwout (even though we all know Jordan owned Kobe on the reg during those second three-peat days) and that means Jordan should be indicted somehow, then what the fuck does that say about 34 year old Kareem who wouldn't guard Moses IN GAMES THAT FUCKING MATTERED, IN A 3 GAME SERIES HIS TEAM FUCKING LOST, IN WHICH MOSES PUT UP 94 POINTS AND 54 REBOUNDS.

At least Kobe was competitive enough to take Rondo when no one else could guard him. Kareem just ignored Moses and hoped he would go away just like he did in his book.

I love the debate about the old days. It's better than the constant suckling at the media teat that goes on most of the time with the Lebron and Kobe banter.

[DJB]

bullshit..that nigga know Kobe is the truth...:lol

The truth that couldn't win a title without a legit big. :rolleyes

MJ only acknowledges that because Kobe's a 2-guard, dummy.

Shaq couldn't win without a 2 gaurd and MJ couldnt do it without Pip...

Fact is post ShaKobe numbers are:

Kobe 2
Shaq 1

[DMC]

Kobe has ONE season MVP... ONE. He didn't win a title that year. Jordan has 5.

Jordan 5

Kobe 1

He didn't get one while playing with Shaq.

That's because he's not the man in the relationship.

Multiple MVP winners

Ur a clown............ PERIOD.

[Mr.Robinson]

Even small market teams had players I've been worried about/scared of. But I don't think anyone who went against Duncan was intimdated by him. Frustrated? Sure. But not intimidated.

Again, this takes nothing away from TD's play. The man is great, and like I said, is almost always in the right position. I just don't think he's the type of person you see where you say, "Oh crap, that guy is going to block everything" like, say Ben Wallace, Mutumbo, etc etc. TD just doesn't look physically imposing.

Everytime I watched Duncan play, for the most part, it wasn't alot of "Wow" moves. It's mostly just great play, good footwork, good hands, etc etc. He wears a player down mentally. But I don't think his "highlight reel" is half as full as other superstars.

21/20/10/8 in the finals, son. Only Shaq has put up a game like that.Duncan doesn't scream or play dirty so he isn't intimidating...lol
please go. Duncan was strong as fuck. One of tue few players who can guard Shaq one on one. Please go.

[Mr.Robinson]

Jordan recently called Kobe Bryant a top ten guard. Why are you guys so easy to troll? Top ten guard not player. Top ten guard. LOL

[alchemist]

stupid fuck.
