Well, you just threw a softball there.
The only GOAT player to lose 2 FMVPs to a lesser player....
Well, you just threw a softball there.
yeah this is horrible, but it has longshot troll potential, tho... lets see where it goes.
Parker should win it.
Danny Green is by far the MVP of the series. No doubt
Well, it would be unprecedented. Russell would've won all of his, Magic and Kareem did lose one to Worthy, but worthy is also HOF so it won't count.
Green is on another level since he started hanging out with the poster in white pants tbh.
Danny Green winning the MVP award would be just as unlikely as the Spurs winning the series. Even if he's the best player of Spurs in this series and he truly deserves this award, Stern will make sure that the Heat win this series and the award is given to someone playing for Miami
Not even a 1 on the troll scale. Step your game up.
Nope.
Nupe sweating bullets now that Duncan is one win away from tying his precious Kirby.
Duncan has been the 2nd best player in the series and the 2nd best player for the Spurs in the playoffs at age 37..any knowledgeable fan already has him ahead of Vino, but winning this series would all over Kob', tbh..
Ummm, I'm riding with the Spurs. I already said I would rather Tim win than Lebron. Tim is a big man so him and kobe aren't comparable, but even if you do compare them, Kobe has beaten tim 4-1 in the playoffs, and is already voted player of the decade by the mutiple news media.
Kobe has more Records, les, and other Accolades than Duncan. Duncan has 1 more FMVP, and 1 more LMVP than Kobe. Thats it. Kobe is #4 all time in Points, and had a better year than duncan. So no, Duncan isn't higher than Kobe. Lets get serious man. Duncan couldn't even defend a championship. Kobe's done that 3 times.
4-2.
So Kobe and Tim played 1 on 1?
Anyhow, you're reaching with the premise of this thread. Duncan (or Leonard) has been the best overall Spurs' player in the Finals. I know Kirby fan is infatuated with scoring, so naturally their walnut sized brains will choose Green as their Finals MVP, but Duncan has many more responsibilities on the floor than to just be a spot up shooter like Green.
It won't hurt his legacy at all. He's 37 and may grab his 5th ring this week which puts him into VERY elite company.
The real question is, how will it hurt LeBron's legacy? He's at his peak.
lol Tony Parker close to having the same number of Finals MVPs as Kobe.
So Kobe Losing FMVP to a top 10 GOAT in Shaq hurts his Legacy, but Tim Losing FMVP to 2 role players, well Parker is most likely HOF, but Duncan was in his Prime when he lost to Parker. Discuss...
The real question is, how will it affect Kobe's legacy when a team with half the salary has the same number of rings vs Lebron getting b2b Finals MVPs which puts him even with Kobe. Lose/Lose
Shaq lost Finals MVP to Wade and you just called him a top 10 GOAT. That should answer your question.
The question you need to be asking is why the Lakers cannot get any contributions from their role players and why 128m a year gets you swept by a graveyard dead team.
we have a winner!
this is mind-blowing tbh
Pau Gasol's legacy took a hit when Bryant won those FMVPs, so I think OP has a solid point.
I know it ain't a popular opinion, but I have always had and will keep Duncan above Kobe even if he doesn't win this year. Kobe's 5 aren't equal to Duncan's 4, and Duncan's 5 will be > Kobe's 5 for the salary reason, Shaq reason, and FMVP reason.
Only on Spurstalk does a Media award like MVP put Lebron over Kobe....
Only on Spurstalk does Duncan who's never defended his championship get put over Kobe
Only on Spurstalk does 2 top 10 GOATS (Shaq and Kobe) hurts only ONE of them....
Only on Spurstalk does Duncan having less achievments and Records still put him over Kobe
Only on Spurstalk does Duncan playing with the Same coach and team his entire career put him over Kobe
Only on Spurstalk does Duncan who needed more HOF players to win Less Championships still put him over Kobe
Thread is the epitome of Duncan vs Kirby. Duncan would always rather win the team award where Kirby is all about the individual accolades. Duncan>>>>>>>>>>>Kirby for their overall respected careers!
Thats a Lie. Duncan wants that FMVP as badly as Kobe. Stop acting like you know Duncan's heart.
