The Greatest Power Forward - Lebron James or Tim Duncan

[Koolaid_Man]

I say Lebron....he's repeated once and is more of a force than Timmy..I bet his stats are better than Timmys as well.

Like anybody gives a shit what you say.

It's not about what I say..it's about facts...Lebron is a way better PF and overall player than Timmy....Timmy was a better shot blocker though...other than that I dont see how you can make the case for Timmy....if I'm taking a 4...I would be compelled to take James over Timmy....unfortunately....

Well, they've met in 3 finals. You do the math.

LeBron James is a small forward, not a power forward.

He can play the 3 or the 4 but his natural position is the 4..just like Timmy can play the 4 or 5 with his natural position being the 4...ok retard Tampa dude?

From a statistics standpoint, Duncan is better defensively (96 DRtg, 4 DBPM, consistent DWS of around 5 to 7 a season, where Lebron had 102, 1.9, and 4 to 6 a season).

Offensively, Lebron is better with 112 ORTG, 7.3 OBPM, OWS of 10 to 14 a season, where Duncan was 110, 1.5, and 6 to 10 a season.

That said, Duncan is way past his prime, and his numbers, especially on offense, were dragged down considerably. Lebron is approaching the end of his prime, but his offensive numbers are just so far ahead from everybody else that even if he goes back to average in his offensive output the next 7 years, he'd still be ahead of Duncan in that department.

Lebron is no doubt, a statistical monster, but Duncan is right up there. The only thing going for Duncan right now is longevity and his ability to adapt to the changes in the game.

That said, Lebron is naturally a SF, he would be bullied as a PF if he plays there full time, especially if he was playing in the late 90s early 00s like Duncan did.

Lebron will definitely be in the Jordan, Duncan, Magic, Kareem tier if he has a strong Finals.

Ultimately, though, Lebron is a wing, and he is, by far, the best wing player since Jordan.

Kind of like how Tim Duncan is a center, not a power forward.

Lebron is a PF....he and Tammy share positions....Lebron is 10x the player that Tammy is....I didnt ask about conversations...this is a discussion about Lebron >Tammy

The Great Satan ain't no longer an efficient small forward. Son of a bitch lost just as much speed and quickless as hair over the past years tbh.
