I wouldn't have put Tim in the game, but to act like it's an outrage is a stretch..he's by far the best defensive player and rebounder on the best team in the NBA..does that outweigh Kevin Love's numbers on a horrible team?(also, one of the worst defensive bigs in the NBA)..it's debatable..
I would have put Aldridge in the game..
Fantastic argument
Great takes continued
Got damn, so many Duncan haters in this thread. WTF is up with you trolls/homers/dip s/etc...etc..? Duncan is still good and obviously other people agree with this. Get it through your ing skull. In the mean time...
not making one. Don't argue against homers remember?Fantastic argument
, Duncan shouldn't be above Lamar Odom .....
If you replaced Duncan with any of these players, the Spurs would be significantly worse..that's why I don't understand the outrage..
If you put Duncan on the Blazers instead of Aldridge, would they be better?..probably not..same with Love..however, the #1 team in the NBA is anchored by Duncan on D, which wouldn't be replaced by any of his All-Star compe ion, and he's the best passer of the bunch, which is another underrated key to the Spurs' offense..
The Spurs are #3 in the NBA from an offensive standpoint, they don't need any more offensive firepower..
I agree he shouldn't but I agree with chuck you could say the same about Pau ...
Pau's best has been better than Lamar's but Odom has brought it almost every night. No black swan speech necessary ...
I get what you're trying to say, but I don't think his D has been that great this year. Spurs seem to be getting by on their offense.
No. You can't. You are ok about talking typical sports talk but as soon as the conversation turns serious and someone puts out an argument that goes beyond "lol Spurs", you fold and scoff.
I am clearly one of the least homer people on the site. I always make argument for what I believe is true, even if it comes out unfavorably for my team.
I presented a factual argument and asked a simple question which you failed to answer because you can't.
It isn't homer when you present a reasonable case and use statistics to back up your claims.
Something you know nothing about.
This is very re ed. Very.
lol up your own ass
lol homer
lol mavs insider
like good argument bro way not to just scoff stupid things
So you don't agree that Duncan does everything better than Dirk besides score? You don't agree that Duncan's team has the number one record in the league, that he out rebounds, assists, steals and blocks Dirk and that the only thing Dirk does better is score?
You don't think that Tim's defense has been that good even though they are ranked top 7 in the league defensively and Tim leads the league in +/- defensively when he is on the court vs off of it?
Great arguments, and you are clearly not a homer
An we are back to your comfort zone
also, link to me being an insider or saying I was one?
Stop being a homer and then I might argue with you. I was talking to trainwreck.
I made my arguments, b*tch. Where are yours?like good argument bro way not to just scoff stupid things
Link to me being a homer, b*tch?
lol getting mad
And you're being a homer by arguing Duncan>Dirk when even some greys think otherwise.
You are being a DB.COMER because you have no ground to stand on and all you know how to do is "lol..."
Where did I argue Duncan>Dirk? Or did I say can someone please explain to me why Duncan on the All-Star team is some egregious thing, but Dirk is not when Duncan out performs Dirk in every area of the game (in less minutes) except for scoring?
To which you respond: "Uhhhhhhhh, I have no stats to back up my claim, but but but I don't think Tim has defended that well", to which I reply with statistical evidence that proves otherwise.
You are the one that literally knows about basketball. But hey, this forum welcomes DB.COMERS that don't bring to the table like yourself all the time.
Dirk is just >>> Duncan. Its really that simple. Manu is >> Duncan.
We could also say "OHH!! CHANDLER IS BETTER THAN DIRK BECUASE HE OUTPERFORMS HIM IN EVERY THING BUT THE SCORING!! IS SCORING ALL THAT MATTERS!???"
That is another stupid take I wouldn't respond too.
To be honest, I would have preferred Aldridge over TD, and TD getting in with Stern's vote. It would have been fairer and easier to defend ("Spurs should have at least 2 All Stars due to their record") when considered against the other stars left out there.
So free bricking for Durant and Anthony because Duncan and Dirk wont play more than 5min...and i think Gasol wont play much either
But he doesn't. Chandler doesn't. Chandler isn't the anchor of the team with the best record. Chandler doesn't lead the league in defensive +/- when he is off the court. Chandler doesn't out Rebound/Assist/Steal/Block/Defend/Win Dirk in less minutes.
So yes, if someone said something that stupid that was a bold faced lie, then your argument would hold water.
Saying Dirk is just >>> Duncan is a DB.COMER take. Present your argument.
Not only can you not present one, you again miss the damn point because you are either incapable of understanding it, or because you are really butthurt over a Spur making it.
For now the fourth time, I never argued Duncan>>>>Dirk. What I did ask (for the fourth time now) is for people to explain why Duncan on the All-Star team is some egregious, horrific sham and why Dirk is a no brainer when Tim anchor's the defense on the best team in the league record wise and out produces Dirk in every category (Defense/Rebounding/Assist/Steals/Blocks) except for points.
Especially when you take into consideration Tim doesn't have to score for the Spurs to win, but he anchors the defense? Why is that one stat and side of the ball so important and is winning not factored in?
