He's in purposeful denial. He can only take winning. He can't take losing.
I'm confident that KAJ would have DOMINATED any era. These new gimmicky defenses wouldn't stop him. He could shoot 15-20 footers, his sky hook goes out to that range too - ask Lurch, Parish, Eaton, Tree Rollins, etc.
His low post game? Top notch. Only players that are even close in terms of potency are Shaq, Wilt, and Prime Dream.
And I GUARANTEE you Manu wouldn't have taken his Olympic cookie.![]()

You and your crew think post season is the season to post. You've not seen it in years. Odd you never seem to mention that. What are you, the justice league?
You lost, dummy. What, we're not coming after you for it?
You're not going to sit there like Midst and not take it are you?
Let me get this straight... Duncan can lose his le as NBA champion 5 times + 1 given back and still have a legacy? WTF? Kobe didn't give any back and he was only stripped of the le 2 times.
And notice how I only mention championships as ' les' and not 'rings'. Duncan won't have any rings remaining by the time he sells them for some cash.
You lost first. You're not even in the playoffs so you didn't beat us. Let a Clipper fan talk . You've got no right to talk when your team hasn't even won a post season game in 3 ing years. Last time you saw us in the playoffs you got historically taken to the woodshed and swept the out, so bad you haven't recovered in 3 years.
Fine. I've had enough of this .
I'll be in the Reading Room.
Not sure you know how it works, since you're to ashamed to post under one user account and the Mavs have one ring since Jesus walked the planet, so just FYI... you don't lose les after you've won them.
could never defend anyway...couldn't defend his personal home life and wife, bank account, Americas's gold medal, or his NBA le....instead he let s come live with him and his wife...let dudes steal all kinds of money from him, brought home a bronze medal, found out he was getting cucked and instead of defending his property (wife) decided to hire a private investigator...already knowing full well he was getting cucked...and of course never defended a le and never had the desire to...
I disagree. You don't take a person from an era and move them forward while keeping the same training and understanding of the game. Without John Wooden teaching him, and instead probably playing under some gimmicky coach with some shoot first PG, Kareem wouldn't have developed a post game. He'd play for some AAU team and be monkey balling like Jordan.
Most of that he did before sweeping your team out of the league 3 years ago.
Quite possibly the dumbest post you ever made and that's saying something. So I guess Pop had nothing to do with Duncan'ts development? SMH
KAJ >>>>>>>>>DuncanPERIOD
Sp*rs won 3 more playoff games than we did. Let det sink in.![]()
Would you say he peaked during the 87 and 88 seasons?
Simple explanation: we were tanking. When y'all owners colluded to steal CP3, we went full tank mode, got under the salary cap, stopped giving out food stamps to RC Buford, now we are reloading.
Duncan is down 2-4 H2H vs. Kobe. No Kobe this year again. Prime opportunity to defend his le. Failed. For the 5th time. Your regrets are your own son.
And Kobe is down 1-2 to Nash (Steve Nash) and 0-1 against Dirk.

Considering he was 40 and 41 when he repeated during those years, no.
I won't even dignify that post with an appropriate response. Your deflecting and grasping at straws.
Kareem was a net negative player during the 88 run (a -1.4 BPM) and averaged 14 points, a pathetic 5 board per game, on a mediocre .464 shooting. He was essentially a role player by every measurement. Duncan has never been such. His stats are nearly always the best on the team, and at worst, 2nd best.
Magic and Worthy carried Kareem's lanky corpse to a le in '88.
What's the difference?
All head-to-head match ups, and Kirby's lost against players Tim and the Spurs have routinely dominated. You're also forgetting Shaq in your little equation.
That's just it, the Spurs are consistently great, never dominant. The '06 may have been the most dominant but they still lost.
Actually, the '99 Spurs were but its hard to figure how good they would have been over the course of a full season (I honestly don't think it would have mattered).
Calling out your stupidity isn't denial.
Prime Duncan made the All Star team with 13.8. You comparing him to 40 year old KAJ?![]()
Back then they didn't space out games like nowadays. West Coast vs East Coast series were over in about a week - unless it went 7. Hardly anytime to recover - especially for a 40 year old.
