    Legit take...Listen there's maybe...maybe one or two top scorers at the guard position that I'd trade for a prime Manu and that's a prime Marbury or prime Michael Redd ...that's it...players like Mike Bibby, Jason Terry, Jason Richardson, Tony Parker, Baron Davis, Steve Francis are comparable to Manu...

    I'm taking the below Prime players over prime Manu 10/10 times:

    Kobe
    T-Mac
    Carter
    Kidd
    Wade
    Nash
    Iverson
    Melo
    Wade
    Lebron
    CP3
    Allen
    Pierce
    Rose
    Durant

    My criteria is simple CAN YOU LEAD A TEAM. Its basically how I make determinations on things. A player like Manu can look all-world when he's in a good system but honestly do you think if he was given the keys to his own team he could actually lead it? no...it's the same argument against Rondo...he's great with all that talent but like Manu cannot run the show if he's the MAN.

    Agreed. Manure couldn't lead his own team. If he had to he would play like .

    I just always thought that if you put a bunch of average players together they'd feed off each others avg mentality. Duncan with Kobe's 05 team is a disaster. Duncan can only thrive with moderate players around him. Kobe thrived even with a ty players...

    Are we talking about FIBA TD, or NBA TD?

    On playing against Manu Ginobili:
    We go way back. This is the first time playing him when he's representing his country. I love him as a basketball player. I think he's incredibly dangerous, incredibly skilled and I enjoy matching up with him.

    Is he one of your toughest individual matchups?
    Oh yeah. Myself and D-Wade and Manu … you're not going to find better two-guards than that.


    lol kool

    So we've established that neither Manu nor Tony are great players. Ergo Duncan >>>>>>> Kobe.
