What makes Duncan overrated

[DMC]

Can you honestly say TD and Brad's games aren't similar? Both have a lot of finesse in their games. As a result, Brad got his pushed in early and often during the brutal EC playoffs by the likes of the Bulls, Knicks or 6ers. TD would have been no different.

Thank you Colter Stevens, knower of parallel universes and other outcomes.

Why would we expect TD to dominate the Bad Boys when Brad couldn't?

Ask them. They are the ones calling TD the best PF to ever play the game.

DMC with the bads. Way to pick which part of my post you want to . In the '80s TD would be considered soft. In the 2000s he's on the endangered big man's list: protected status.

would he have been great against these guys in the '80s?

• bill laimbeer
• rick mahorn
• the worm
• charles oakley
• karl malone (in the 80's when he was allowed to be physical. Remember when he knocked out the admiral? I know you do! )
• charles barkley
• ewing
• moses malone
• artis gilmore (the a-train)
• even 50 year old kareem (just ask bird )
• bill cartwright

any of these guys would have more than put timid's in the dirt with that weak ass finesse . The '80s was no punk. Timid would not have been great in the '80s. Brad daughtery at best like i said.


Now malone doesn't have the hardware, but it is not because he wasn't great. His game was born in the rough and tumble '80s. He kicked ass and took names. He would have rang a couple of times in the '80s if not for "showtime" standing in his way. You guys call timmy d the goat? Well he didn't win until malone's 14th year in the league and even then it wasn't a slam dunk.

Rings matter, but you spur fans need to respect how the mailman delivered for over 20 years. Especially considering how the wheels fell off for timmy d after his 15th. We don't call him tired old bag for nothing around these parts.

Quality post and 100% truth in everything stated. 90% of NBA fans outside of Texas know the truth. Duncan is good, but far from great and ridiculously overrated. Mr. Opportunity is exactly right.

Ehhhh NO I live in VA and they see Tim as a legend here too, two of the biggest got haters on this board speak! BBALL players call TIM THE GOAT PF and they are not from TEXAS! Critics and writers as well! You guys must have been snuffed for an auto or he ed your wives! You two are clowns SONSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.......

I doubt if Jim ed someones ol lady. In fact, you can barely imagine him wanting to his ol lady. Which begs the question... is Jim Duncan gay? Kool pointed out that he has a tongue ring, which only s and dikes sport just to put themselves on notice to the world that they like sucking . He has tats in girly areas... Ankle, inner thigh, and the small of his back. You be the judge.

He could be gay.

[DMC]

But at least he's not sporting butterflies carrying a ring.

You sir are a moron...........................

This troll thread is laughingly stupid and re ed. Comparing one of the 10 greatest big men/players ever to Bill Cartwright and Brad Daugherty????????????



Tim Duncan is a multiple-time champion, league MVP, Finals MVP and nothing you trolls on this board changes that. When I hear Bill Russell and damn near every young big man in the game heap praise upon Duncan, then I understand his place in history. He's right there with Hakeem, Shaquille and just underneath Kareem, Wilt and Russell.

TBH, if Duncan actually got his wish and played PG, he would have averaged 75 ppg, 22 apg, 28 rpg, 11 bpg and 8 spg on 74 FG% shooting because he would have a 9 inch advantage against his average compe ion.

Would Kobe have been great against these guys in the '80s?

• Joe Dumars
• Sidney Moncrief
• Mitch Richmond
• Rolando Blackman
• Isiah Thomas (in the 80's when he was allowed to be physical. Remember when he gave Magic HIV? I know you do! )
• Clyde Drexler
• Michael Jordan
• Andrew Toney
• Michael Cooper
• Even 50 year old Dr. J (just ask Bird )
• Dennis Johnson

Any of these guys would have more than put Kobe in the dirt with that weak ballhog crap. The '80s was no punk. Kobe would not have been great in the '80s. Michael Ray Richardson at best like I said.


Now Michael Jordan didn't have hardware in the 80's, but it is not because he wasn't great. His game was born in the rough and tumble '80s. He kicked ass and took names. He would have rang a couple of times in the '80s if not for Magic and Bird standing in his way. You guys call Kobe the goat? Well he didn't win crap until Jordan's 14th year in the league and even then it wasn't a slam dunk.

Rings matter, but you Laker fans need to respect how his Airness delivered for over 15 years. Especially considering how the wheels fell off for Kobe after his 15th. We don't call him tired old bag for nothing around these parts.

Here is the most overrated legend of our times, Mr Fundamentals; or should I say Mr Opportunity. Duncan is a solid all around player there is no denying that, but for anyone who remembers the NBA beyond 2000 you know that Duncan is not as good as everyone says he is. For starters he is a center who was converted to power forward because the Spurs had David Robinson. Duncan stand at about seven feet, the modern power forward today averages about six foot eight inches, which means Duncan has a good four inches on them.

The rules of today’s game have also helped Duncan a lot. In a game were defense is all but abolished, a player with little offensive skills can look really good because they can’t be touched. If Duncan played in the early 90s, he would be nothing more than a sixth man defensive plug.
