Big Dave prime will win Timmy prime ?
Drob would whoop Tim Duncan one-on-one. But that's not Duncan's game, its his intangibles. Its his team player and being a team leader is what make him so great. Tim and Drob comparison actually shows that just athleticism isn't going to win you championship. Mental toughness and resolve do. I love Drob, but in this aspect, he is not on Duncan's playing field.
Different players. Admiral was face up, TD low post guru.
"This is the best fan-base because their so respectful, nobody hates LeBron or the Heat"
I get Skip was just kissing ass there, but holy could he be less wrong. Every Spurs fan I've met says like " LeBron! Wade! MIAMI! BUNCH OF FLOPPERS!!!" as if they don't realize the Spurs have two main floppers, one infamous for it (Manu) and one who looks hilarious anytime he does it (Tiago).
Lol DRob shouldn't be talking about going 1-on-1 with anyone after that catastrophe in 1995.
There was an interview back in 98 by Doc Rivers with both Tim and David on the couch and that's not exactly how it was playing out.
Well said tbh
Well Timmay has a better dribbling so I don't know if Dave would won that matchup
If Timmy got Drob down on the block it would be over. There's a reason they handed the offense over to Duncan when he arrived. But yes, Drob was faster and more athletic.

Timmy was kicking Dave's ass.
Drob conceded this as well. But he was talking about taken from the top of the key, like most one-on-one games are played. Drob was so quick and such great leaping ability, he just needed two dribbles and he was going by you for a dunk or layup.
DRob didn't go 1 on 1 in 1995.
Robinson's biggest weakness imo was he was so totally left handed.
Yet he still got by people, just like Avery.
Legend
In a game of 1 on 1, I'd put my money on the Admiral.
Skip was clearly playing the crowd on that one."This is the best fan-base because their so respectful, nobody hates LeBron or the Heat"
1 on 1 is harder against 3 defenders.
Yeah, I heard that too. My money is on Tim. David was a phenomenal athlete and could jump out of the arena but Tim was so much better fundamentally. David was faster, quicker, could jump higher and was a better defender but you gotta score points. No one can throw you an alley-oop when you are playing one on one.
LOL I doubt it.. If they play 10 times I take Tim 7-3..
I love it when users try to correct people who weren't really wrong in the first place.
there is still a huge San Antonio Heat following."This is the best fan-base because their so respectful, nobody hates LeBron or the Heat"
I wouldn't discredit Timmy's defense in his prime. I could see him getting a few blocks on Robinson if he tried to drive past him. Also, Timmy knows how to use his body so well, he would just find a way with the ball to put him in a position where he'll score. I think Timmy would win that matchup.
Robinson easily. People really forget how great a player he really was. He is under appreciated because he played in the Big Man era, there were at least two hall of fame centers that played when he did and I'm not even counting Shaq , that's not even factoring in Jordan. Robinson in his prime was like Blake Griffin crossed with Serge Ibaka in a 7'1" frame. Off the charts athletically, no way Timmy could keep up with him one on one.
Except I wasn't trying to correct you, of course. Just agreeing by saying it in a different way.
