    Mike Bivens told David Stern that in the 80's and 90's the faces of the league was Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Michael Jordan. Bivens asked Stern who he thinks the BIG Three of today's league is and he said, Kobe, Shaq, KG. Didn't mention TD

    Duncan doesn't make the league the money that Kobe, Shaq, and KG do. As a Duncan fan I'm long used to it. It doesn't phase me anymore, Duncan's got the hardware. He'll go down as a top-ten ever player, nothing else matters.

    I think he meant from a revenue standpoint. And you can not argue that.

    could care less what stern says, he may not be the money-maker those guys are, but he gets the ultimate respect from peers and fans. TD could care less anyway

    LeBron disappointed Stern last year when even he couldn't make money because he couldn't handle the Spurs.

    I don't even agree with him. To me, it's Nash, Kobe, and LeBron.

    Garnett scores and rebounds at a higher rate than Timmy. That's why Stern rates him up there.

    KG does not bring in more revenue than Tom Duncan.

    Based on what? I didn't look stuff up but I would think KG's jersey sells better, I would think Boston's ticket sales and merchandising went through the roof this year. KG has commercials that actually air, that brings the league attention. Where is Duncan making more money than Garnett for the NBA?

    Oh, it's Tim, not Tom.

    KG may be a little hotter right now that he just joined the Celtics, but over a several year period Tom, er Tim Duncan is a more famous player.

    I believe the implication here is that you harbor a great yearning concerning acts of sexuality and Peja Stojakavic, specifically, that you desire to fellate him.

    I don't know if I agree that Duncan is more famous. He's got the hardware but KG has always had the personality. He's more accessible to fans. And I still think KG has made the league more money than Duncan.

    If that was intentional, then well done.

    I'm not sure that KG has any personality, but he's a bigger money maker for the league by far. That said, Kobe and LBJ are 1 and 1a in any discussion.
