The risk of playing defense. Some will go through.
And let's not kid ourselves.
We all know the softest dude under the rim in the league, is Gasol.
this was inspired by my on going war with Luva...
I tried being as fair, unbiased, and objective about this as I possibly could...but I keep defaulting to one person...now we don't have evidence of this when it comes to Wilt, Bill, Kareem, Hakeem, Robinson to a degree, Shaq, Garnett, Gasol, Mikan, etc etc etc....but the one person we have actual prime evidence against is Tim Duncan...who would you say it is...
and I think Kobe actually contributes to at least 50% of this argument for Duncan because Duncan is the person that Kobe has dunked on the most in his career. I dunno what the Mamba has against Timmy but whatever it is...it's personal...
Here's my empirical evidence...there should be close to 50 dunks below...but many more out there...if you can provide further proof I'm all ears...
Sickest Evidence:

I will agree with Gasol being the softest - no issues from me there...but that's not my argument...Timmy has been dunked more than any big man that I know of...
Because Gasol is a nobody, few take care of him in YouTube. I'm sure Gasol has been dunked way more, as he is a known liability for any team he played for.
Thus, easy prey for dunks.
That would be Shawn Bradley sons!
Bradley FTW
if you go back to the OP's "original post"
lol weak troll is weak
tbh Shawn Bradley got dunked on by everybody...even people who couldn't dunk.
So really, he should have just taken stupid fouls to save himself from a bunch of YouTube snippets.
Any balla worth his salt would take that silly foul and give up an and-1 to avoid being in the picture when a player dunks.
I'm sure he'll be crying about this when he gives his Hall of Fame induction speech 5 years after he retires.
Stool_Aid doesn't know who Shawn Bradley is. He hasn't been watching basketball that long.
That Gasol is soft under the rim, thus a much easier prey for dunks than Duncan is a fact, K. As Gasol's value/importance in the league is really low, he doesn't have many haters, and apparently haters with enough time to make elaborate videos about being dunked; which is way harder than make videos about dunks, as they are harder to track down.
Which is not the case with Gasol, if anyone is willing to try:
You'll see 2 or 3 humilliating dunks on Gasol on nightly basis.
Hmmmm..... who's #2 in blocks (career) in the NBA right now among active players?
Bradley got dunked on because he was always in the way, Duncan always did because of defense. The reason other bigs don't get dunked on every time is because they usually won't try to contest it.
This thread inspired me look up who lead the league in missed shots over their career. Turns out it's John Havlicek, a Hall of Famer. Not really surprising, got to take 'em to make 'em, you miss 100% of the shots you don't shoot, etc, etc. Wasn't even looking for this year's numbers but Google threw that at me too. Any guesses?
^ Kobe Bryant
Too bad we don't have video of the 2339 shots that have been turned away, courtesy of Tim Duncan.
Don't be mad at kool - what to expect from a guy who thinks youtube is an official nba stat source...
Nice troll job
No one cares that he gets dunked on. He's unathletic. Spurs fans already know this.
LOL @ Dunks
This is what your trolling has degraded to? Trying to troll Spurs fans with Duncan being "the most dunked on big man in NBA history?"
Besides we all know that's Shawn Bradley, EASILY.

I think it was Theo Ratliff (back in his prime) that was quoted in SLAM magazine saying something to the effect of:
"You could stuff a guys shot in his face 5 times in a game and never hear anything said about it. But let him dunk once on you, and you're in a F'n poster and the highlight reel."
Kool wants Timmy on the Lakers so badly, imho.
