Finally, you're a nut of you think jordan was better on defense than Duncan. Duncan is a big man who patrols the paint.

If jordan were around today, he would be stopped in his tracks by Duncan, if he's lucky enough to get by the pesky Bruce Bowen.

First of all dumbass, I never argued that Jordan was a better defensive player then Tim Duncan. Im arguing with what you said about Jordan being a ty defender

Second of all, Gary Payton is considered one of the greatest if not, THE greatest defensive point guard of all time. If Jordan got past him at ease, then Jordan would definitely get around by Bruce Bowen.

41 year old Michael Jordan vs Prime Bruce Bowen
Here are the stats of Jordan when he played against a prime Bowen back when Jordan was a wizard in 2002 and 2003.

Wizards vs Spurs January 15, 2002 Michael Jordan had Game high 23 points

Spurs vs Wizards December 21, 2002 Michael Jordan had Game high 24 points

Wizards vs Spurs December 31, 2002 Michael Jordan had 20 points

Lol at prime Bruce Bowen not being able to contain a 41 year old guard.

MJ was overrated. America is too American and fails at realizing that or seeing that meanwhile can admit to songs that were so bad and movies or random things of the sort. Jordan was great, just not the angelic wizard he is portrayed as.

TD and MJ are on the same level for sure.

BTW I hate the MJ commercial where he goes on about how great he is ruining the damn game. Ironic commercial lmao what a fool he is in person.

[bigbasic]

I've never seen another big man, with so much juice on the clutch... other than perhaps, Hakeem?

Notable clutch shots, one against the Lakers... if it just wasn't for that stupid lucky Derek Fisher shot...
And of course the recent one, game 1 vs. the Suns.

Bottomline : In tight grind-out games, it's always Mighty Duncan that stood up...
offensively and defensively...


All that said, his compe iveness can be compared with MJ,

Of course there's no comparison from a statistical perspective, eh?!

Tim has yet to win back-to-back rings.

MJ had TWO three-peats. He got his 1st 3peat, retired for 2 years, came back and got another 3-peat. If he hadn't retired, he would have 8 straight championships. An 8-peat. Reminds you of the Bill Russel era. That's how great MJ was. There was just no discussion. Opposing teams would enter MJ's arena and even THEY knew how much better MJ was.

When MJ retired, players were asked if they would like MJ to come back. Most players were like 'NO!!!!!!' Dan Majerle is famous for saying "Nooooo, please dont come back again. Give others a chance to win"

Duncan on the other hand wins one every few years. Tim is best PF ever, but not MJ. Tim didn't even win MVP Finals last year....

Jordan is the better all time player but if Tim gets one more ring repeat or not that makes 5 les he will have led the Spurs too. Jordan has 6 so for sure Tim is in the same breath as Jordan, not as good but in his league for sure.

Jordan's Bulls don't get blown out by 30 in a playoff game. Ever.

You guys are looking at it all wrong.

This is how the order goes.

It's not pointless. He was responding to the guy making fun of americans with stupid stereotypes. Even if it WAS a pointless post, which it wasn't, you made an even more pointless post wasting a post to tell him it was pointless. Just let it go and it dies.

However, he is sending a message to the guy making fun of all americans

[dbreiden83080]

Jordan's Bulls don't get blown out by 30 in a playoff game. Ever.

Jordans Bulls not only got blown out in the playoffs when he was winning but when he was losing he was getting spanked hard by Isiah and the Pistons.

[MiamiHeat]

Show proof or it didn't happen.

he posted the same thing twice. troll status.

also its a dumb stereotype.

Are you saying Jordan never got beat down by anyone in the playoffs??

[DazedAndConfused]

Duncan is probably one of the most consistent superstars to ever play in this league, that's what makes him so great.

But to compare him to Jordan.......anyone who has watched both of these guys in their primes knows what a stupid statement that is.

[MiamiHeat]

Are you saying Jordan never got beat down by anyone in the playoffs??

Still no proof of the 30 point beatdown?

I see. All talk you are

[Tacker]

Jordans Bulls not only got blown out in the playoffs when he was winning but when he was losing he was getting spanked hard by Isiah and the Pistons.

and the spurs were spanked by the bulls hence the Spurs never won a le when jordan was in town

Been watching the NBA for 5 min i see.

[MONTENEGRINO]

So did Jordan in 91 who was the only allstar on that Bulls team (pippen had bad season that year)

Yes, Scottie had bad season, but the way he played Magic Johnson in finals wasn't seen after that.

[sickdsm]

Jordan never had a teamate that was better than him coming off the bench to save his ass consistanty.

Nor a teamate win the finals MVP.

Duncan has a couple years where its debateable if he's even the best player on his team, lol. This is as rediculous as the Celtics/Bulls discussion.

I'm sure Justin Morneau would be a uva lot better than Babe ruth if they were in the same era but there not. Jordan became a man among boys. If it was more compe eve for him, Jordan could have won EASILY 8 in a row. Duncan has never been that much better than everyone else.

[MONTENEGRINO]

Nor a teamate win the finals MVP.

Who COULD take MVP beside Jordan? Even if Hakeem, sir Charles, Pip and Magic were in Bulls uniform at the same time as MJ, he easily would be MVP.
Hands down, there is no player in history of the league that could be compared to MJ.
