DP: Who do you like in the Spurs-Suns series?
RM: San Antonio.
DP: The Spurs never go away. They’re the Freddy Krueger of the NBA. You turn around, and there they are again.
RM: And Phoenix has never beaten the San Antonio Spurs in a seven-game series.
DP: I think the Spurs should bring back Robert Horry just for this series.
RM: I don't think they're going to need Horry. [Manu] Ginobili is playing fantastic. Even though Tim Duncan struggled in that first-round series against the Mavs, I think they've found an emerging star in George Hill. I think DeJuan Blair is going to be huge in this series. It's the type of series he can thrive in because he's going to be going against smaller players. I see the Spurs winning this in six.
DP: Do you think Tim Duncan is one of the 10 best players of all time?
RM: No. But I would put him in the top 15, and that's saying a lot, obviously, but no, not 10.
DP: Because he's a power forward and didn't want to be listed as a center?
RM: He's a power forward. Now, if you would have asked me if he's the greatest power forward of all time ...
DP: OK, you can have Karl Malone, Kevin McHale, Tim Duncan, Larry Bird ... if you want to put Charles Barkley in there you can. So who you taking out of that group, if you can have first pick, starting a career?
RM: Kevin McHale.
DP: And then?
RM: Karl Malone.
DP: Wow, Malone over Duncan. You're taking Charles over Duncan too, aren't you?
RM: No, then I would go with Timmy. I love Charles, but in that company ... you said Charles is on tomorrow, you should ask him the same question, to rank himself amongst those four.

McHale.

And Duncan wasn't carried by one of the greatest Celtics teams to ever hit the hardwood.
What about the hate for Larry Bird?
Cheryl Miller is a girl????!?!
Not even Bill Simmons would take McHale over Duncan.
I think he ignored the mention of Bird in that group. Reggie knows that Larry was not a PF, a fact that apparently eludes national talk show host Dan Patrick.What about the hate for Larry Bird?
this is why he never won a championship.
Simmons has Duncan at 7th in his Hall of Fame Pyramid. He ranks McHale at 35th.
Tim Duncan would have absolutely obliterated Kevin McHale in their primes. Can you imagine Kevin trying to guard Tim on the block?
Just think about it. Larry Bird, Tim Duncan, and Parish on the same team. Frightening.
my favorite player as a kid continues to disappoint me when he opens his mouth to give his opinion. WHOMEVER stole my RM 31 jersey from the lockerroom 9th grade 95 can keep it. don't worry about returning it.

mchale over both timmy and malone ?
Putting McHale ahead of Karl Malone is stupid enough to begin with..full of fail..McHale is below Tim, Malone, Garnett, Barkley and probably Nowitzki IMO..
If you listen to Reggie Miller on TV, you should know enough about his "analysis"..
I mean let's put Horace Grant and Dennis Rodman ahead of Duncan too, why not?
Not even McHale would take himself over Duncan.
You can't blame a guy for giving his opinion but when you sound so retarted giving it then you might as well. Especially when it's Reggie Miller.
I'll never forget the night the Nuggets traded for AI and Reggie claimed the Nuggets had just leap-frogged the Suns and Mavericks.
"How the do they get these jobs?"
- Me
Hated him ever since KoMe elbowed Manu in the face & Reggie said Manu deserved it!
I wasn't much better regarding Denver. In 2005 I remember Denver finished the season something like 25-4 and was red hot since Karl took over as coach. After they went up 1-0 on San Antonio I premature ejaculated to the point where I was actually worried about whether or not Phoenix would be able to beat Denver.
In 2007, Denver finished the season 10-1, went up on San Antonio, and I made the same re ed assumption that upset was gonna happen. The high point of that season was when Dallas and San Antonio both lost the 1st game of their 1st round matchup, me and everyone I went to high school with were ready to plan a parade the next day
I disagree with Reggie, obviously, but I don't know that calling a player a top-15 player of All-Time and a top-3 player at his position is "hating" on him. If he said that he would put 50 players ahead of Tim Duncan and could name 10 better power forwards, then he might have been "hating" on Tim.
I believe who he placed before him is the part that caused this reaction. Some may be OK with people placing (wrongly of course) Malone or Barkley, even Garnett...
I'd rather hear his sisters opinion anyhow, she's the better basketball player.
Reggie Miller is "special."
Neither would Red Auerbach.
