And KG is where compared to Duncan in terms of legacy?
KG is like the 20th best of his generation..
It's sad to see how much better KG right now then TD, pathetic almost. TD couldn't even pull out 1 20pt game in the playoffs while getting serious minutes, and don't talk about touches, when he gets the ball he gets bullied

Name ten.
boy you're dumb obviosuly.Who is KG playing against?Chris bush and joel Anothony?Seriously.2 bad defenders.Did you see what Pau did to KG last year?Duncan played against Marc Gasol and Randolph 2 huge bodies on a team that bangs a lot.His overall numbers are still better than KG
There are like 7 in the playoffs alone... 1 he is playing with..
Only 1 matters. Duncan>>>>KG and it isn't even close.
Check that
2 he is playing with..
Name 7 then.
You think Ray Allen and Paul Pierce's careers are better than KGs overall?
Ain't close how? Statistically speaking or ring-wise?
For most of his career, Duncan outweighed Garnett by at least 50 pounds. Garnett played a finesse game, and didn't spend every night getting beaten on by the biggest guy on the opposing team. It took a toll on Tim's knees. And when Tim played through some injuries, to help the team win, it took even more of a toll on his knees.
Duncan has just under 7,000 minutes in playoff games. Garnett has just under 4,000. That's A LOT more wear and tear.
Over the last several seasons, Garnett has had guys like Big Baby, Kendrick Perkins, Rasheed Wallace, and Leon Powe to help him out around the basket. And Paul Pierce and Ray Allen on the outside, to keep them from collapsing on him. If Duncan had more help over the years, he wouldn't have so much hard mileage.
Most of all... what's your ing point? There's no rule that says Boston can't take on one new fan. Go watch Garnett.
Yeah. Too bad Spurs only had Manu, Parker, D-Rob...
Blahhhhhhhhhh. Tim has played alot longer as far as mins go in the playoffs and went deeper almost every year until the last few.
Duncan
Shaq
Pierce
Kobe
Allen (Not far behind KG)
Wade
Lebron (Not totally his generation but have already had better careers than KG IMO
So there is 6 1/2 ..
KG was never much more than a jump-shooter who could not take Minnesota anywhere in a decade..
Pierce and Shaq
duh..
So you said there were 20, and so far, you've been able to name 3 that fit. Only four more! You can do this.
Sorry, I forgot Shaq for a moment. He hasn't played in awhile (barring tonight) after all.
Ummm... you're a Celtics fan, right? And I tipped my hat to the talent the team has. Take a chill pill.
D-Rob was at the end of his career, and was only there for the beginning of Tim's. Since then, the best help Tim has had inside was probably McDyess - who was also at the end of his career. Manu has spent a lot of time injured in the last several years, and Tony does most of his damage in the paint, which doesn't exactly pull defenders very far from Tim.
Tim took a lot more abuse over the years than Garnett. They played a different style game. That's no knock on Garnett, it's just the reason why Tim's knees are old, compared to Garnett's. That plus carrying an extra 50-60 pounds up and down the floor. Bigger body, more wear and tear. Surely this isn't the first time you've heard anyone discuss that?
Now take another chill pill.
I'm not saying that KG is better than TD. I'm just saying that Dbreiden's assertion that he's maybe in the Top 20 of his generation is laughable.
And I think TD has had at least as much help as KG has had, but your comment on different style games is true.
You guys are acting a fool. Without KG, Boston doesn't compete.
And give credit where it's due. KG has aged better than TD has.... doesn't mean he's better overall in terms of career ranking, but he's better right now.... he's meaner and more motivated too, es.
Shaq and TD are interchangeable.... then Kobe and Dirk.... then KG at 5 for the post-MJ era
Do you guys think KG could do that against Gasol/Randolph?
It still saddens me that TD looked so bad against those guys. Prime Timmy woulda ted all over 'em.
Tonight was one of a game for KG but lets not forget his relatively unimpressive Games 1 and 2, first game he had something like 6 points and 8 boards in 37 mins.
Also the Miami Heat frontcourt really don't compare to the physical widebodies the Grizz have who are also making things difficult for OKC bigs such as Perkins and Ibaka.
