LOL "Regular season doesn't count" argument
So? Malone is better scorer than Duncan. On the other hand, Duncan averages more RPG, APG, and BPG in the playoffs than that regular season stat padder.
Lol .463.
Maybe it would be better if you compared Malone to other shooting guards, since that's how he played in the real season.
LOL "Regular season doesn't count" argument
1999 * ... bogus "Tournament Style" exhibition season. most teams weren't developed, prepared, or trying
2007 - Parker and Manu won that le. Duncan was nothing more than a role player on their team.
BR Hornet you're a fine young man...![]()
lol duncan finished college, fell off at age 30 and still destroyed the field.
Way to kick your own ass.
I never realized Duncan played with a player as good as John Stockton in his prime.
Let's see, Robinson was getting up there in age and suffered two career altering injury when Duncan joined the Spurs.
Parker and Ginobili, as much as I love them, is nowhere close to as good as Stockton was in his prime. You are talking about the alltime leader in assist (and steals?), a deadly outside shooter and floor leader. You are talking about one of the best PG of all time (top 5 no doubt). Him alone is about as good as any supporting cast Duncan has ever had.
And then just writing off Jeff Hornacek as some nobody. They guy averaged 12 to 16 points every year playing in Utah, great shooter (that we all know is essential in complimenting a big man).
If course there is Jeff Malone, or the 3rd greatest Malone of all time, who managed to average about 20ppg playing in Utah.
Mark Eaton, as much as a defensive liability as he was, was a monster on D. You are talking a guy who once AVERGAED 5.6 blocks per game for the whole bloody season. 5.6! That number is about as incredible as Wilt's 50.4ppg season. The next highest BPG number for the whole season was 5bpg by some 7-7 freak named Manute Bol, and Eaton was 12% better! You are talking about a 2time DPoY.
Then there is Adrian Dantley, about one of the most efficient scorers in the history of the leaguea guy who can put up 30 points with ease, and he played 3 seasons with Malone.
Thurl Bailey, another 20 ppg scorer
There Dr. Dunkenstein, a high flying SG who can give you 15ppg. The list goes on and on.
But these facts would just fly over BR's head, because you just be trolling.
yeah i wished the same![]()
Spin it any way you want, it's still:
Duncan: 4
New Orleans: Katrina
Here's another one.
NBA all-time regular season games played
Karl malone, 4th most
Tim Duncan 74th most

Has BRButthurt brought up defense in this thread?
sons the truth bombs hurt don't they? typical Spur fan resulting to name calling and other insults such as wishing the hurricane hit New Orleans instead of accepting the pure facts. nothing I stated was false.
33rd in career points
22nd in career rebounds
yet this guy is the best PF of all time? explain
you done yet?
Also, didn't realize it but DAMN that Kobe is in 6th for points right now, I realize he has a couple of extra years on most dudes but DAMN.
lol sons some of you should be criminal defense attorneys by the way you attempt to spin everything around .... lame
even if Duncan played another 10 years in the NBA he still wouldn't reach Malone's numbers. Duncan had a nice little 8 year run putting up damn good numbers, but that's it. he fell off so young that he would never have a chance to put up top player of all time types of numbers. that's just the cold hard truth. how do you explain him putting up such lousy and pathetic numbers this past season at the tender, young age of only 34 whenever other "greats" at his position and any other were steady cruising and not falling off? .... oh that's right! now you spin it by saying "he played less minutes! if only he played regular minutes he would still put up Hakeem type numbers!" ... ignorance is bliss .... sons the minutes excuse is even more pathetic because it shows you just how out of shape and fallen off Duncan has become for not being able to play a respectable amount of minutes anymore.
The fact of the matter is that he showed up in the PO's when it counted and got 4 rings for his efforts, something Malone wouldn't know anything about.
Also he's ranked 21st in rebounds you lying little hoe.
EDIT: Also he's ranked 28th, not 33rd in points. Your credibility is no more.
son no he isn't. he is ranked 22nd all time

stop trying to make it look better. the facts are the facts. you can't just not count the ABA numbers to try and make him look better whenever you're arguing that he is the best PF ever.
ABA
Last time I checked that league is dead and has been for 40 or so years.

21st.
lol attempting to spin the facts
lol ignoring the fact that he is ranked 33rd in points and 22nd in rebounds
Maybe we should include euroleague too when comparing players. Doesn't matter if they got their stats in some barn in Germany, they count too!
Also
NEVER ACKNOWLEDGED HIS SON'S EXISTANCE
http://deadspin.com/384616/karl-malones-son-is-no-son-of-his
no son this is about American basketball the only country that counts. anyone who understands sports will count their numbers especially when one is trying to argue that a player is the best ever. how can you ignore them? you want to ignore what DR. J did?
lol some of you kids coming up are really entertaining to listen to. yea lets just ignore the facts of what other players have done in the past before you were even born so that it will push Timmy's ranking one spot closer at #21!!!!
