    disagree. Can you imagine Green playing next to prime Evita, Duncan and MVParker????

    I would argue people have extremely short memory, tbh... Bowen took on prime Kobe, prime TMac, prime Ray Allen... damn the SG position used to be stacked back then... Prime Dirk was always a bad matchup for the Spurs... Pop used to even put Parker on him here or there, just trying to give him a different look.
    Yeah, Dirk has always been a tough MU for most teams.. I feel like Antonio McDyess and Splitter played him the best out of any Spur since 2003...

    in 2012, Green was desperately needed but couldnt hit a shot under pressure to save his life ... Im proud of how far hes come and its a testament to his mental strength but cmon dude.. hes lucky to have played with the Spurs who are so unselfish and team oriented on both sides of the floor. Danny can barely dribble the basketball up the court...

    and Bowen could?

    as I said, this Danny is shooting at historical levels. Paired with the prime big 3 would be a sight to see. IMO he will eventually have to come back down to earth(I think)

    Never pimped his ball handling skills. That is why I call him 1 trick pony. But he is playing as the greatest 1 trick pony in league history.

    I don't see how anyone could argue that Bowen was a better or equal offensive player to Green. That's absurd.

    To be honest, i watched nust about every game BB played in silver and black, and I pretty much disregard your opinion outright. I dont care what the numbers say or whether you think Im "talking out of my ass."
    Lol. You can't even remember the 2013 Finals correctly and yet I'm supposed to take your take on 2003-2007 seriously.

    A lot wrong with you using 2 guys playing together on defense compared with one guy? Lol yeah, its kinda strange.
    You're talking about one-one-one D. LnL didn't tag-team one guy. They took out multiple stars at the same time. It wasn't like they were working together for the most part. They are both just elite at what they do.

    No it is certainly not, Bruce won three les and made countless gutty plays on D throughout each run.
    Yes, it is. We're talking about individual D against the best scorers here. Six games was over 100 possessions, which is a MUCH bigger sample than a "gutty play".

    You dont think they helped eachother on D? Lol
    Not in the way you're implying. They checked their own guys Splitter helped LnL with Duncan as the anchor. Prime Tim helped Bowen. The biggest help LnL give each other is switching screens.

    And this allows you to compare their contributions simultaneously with Bruces how? You keep saying theres "alot wrong with this" but really, the comparison youre making is apples to oranges. For example you say if anything KLs d was the weak link, but then again that just sounds dumb when you think about who he was guarding. Good players are going to score, the best you can do is get in their head so they miss when it counts. Any vet will tell you this.
    Most of this paragraph is bad, but the bolded part is what I'm talking about. In Bowen's day, that type of mentality was a given if Dirk or Nash scored a bunch of points on efficient shooting, that was just what happened. At least they had to work for it. It doesn't work like that anymore. LnL hold their guys down. A stat line that would get Bowen praise is simply a day's work now.

    LOL, if only you were around in 2006, you might have known a lot of us HATED BB on Dirk... not for the reasons you assert, though
    Couldn't care less what you guys were thinking. Bowen didn't defend Dirk well. The very next year should have shown you how much better he could be checked.

    You are comparing two very different series. Warriors were able to overwhelm Dallas with speed and athleticism and Dallas were pretty stagnent on the offensve end.

    Green is more athletic than Bowen ever was. Green is able to do a lot more in that aspect. Bowen wouldn't come out of nowhere and block a ball away from a player committing a 3 point play. I've seen green in the little time he's been here steal more balls than I ever saw Bruce did. Not to mention you almost always see danny blocking a ball of the backboard in transition.

    There's always an excuse. The question I have is how much better did Dirk have to do for people to have not thought Bowen did a good job? 30 and 15?

    Jefferson and Anderson were on that team. Drafting another wing would have mafe no sense.
    Fair on Jefferson they wernt expecting to dump him so quickly probably. I wasn't expecting us to get Kawhi tbh

    "prime" Bowen was 2003-2008... That's what landed him 5 times in NBA All defense 1st team...

    I mean that Bowen was a of an athlete in his physical prime. He was old with the Spurs. So no, Green isn't more athletic than Bowen ever was.

    He was undrafted, clearly not supremely athletic or very good at all... It's a testament to his work ethic he was able to succeed despite all that...
