For once ESPN giving TD love over Kobe.
Of course, in fairness, this all starts with Wade saying Kobe was the best of his era.
It obvious, but its taken ESPN a long time to admit it.
Heard this live last night....
Legs dropping truth bombs.
Wade throwing LBJ under the bus seems like the bigger story to me, tbh.
Duncan needs another ring to make it official.![]()
ESPN has actually been on this for a few years now, tbh..
Lebron has said Duncan is the greatest of his generation, maybe Wade was a little offended..
Exactly haha. They are way late.
I doubt Wade thinks that highly of himself. But with LBJ coming to town, he did sacrifice his year window in which he could win an MVP. He had played at an MVP level for the half season before he came.
There is no doubt Duncan is > Kobe
As an individual player and as a teammate. Seriously, i really wonder how many would rather play with Kobe the ballhog than Duncan the unselfish.
And of course If we win it all this year, his ring count will even be higher. Oh please Lord let us win this year!
Legs used to always be a Spurs backer, then started writing them off left and right when he thought they were done. Looks like he's drinking the juice again.
Kobe torpedoed his own legacy, demanding to be the highest paid player in the league when he was past his prime. That will always be with him, along with the Lakers being a terrible team with no financial flexibility. Duncan followed David Robinson's lead & is going out with grace, and winning.
Legler with undeniable facts.
Kobe had league collusion, refs and their whistles, and Pau Gasol on his side. He chased away Shaq, and chased away Pau, not to mention free agents and other teammates. Duncan had a good team and management, and has been nothing if not the model teammate. Unfortunately, people won't bring up how the NBA wanted to make Kobe into the next Michael Jordan, and shoved him into contention and past series a few times, but glad to see Duncan getting recognized. Not to take away from Kobe, he's a great player, but compared to Duncan his flaws shine.
Is there anyone outside of Los Angeles that even thinks this is an argument anymore?
I will say though, living in LA, this is a conversation you never want to get into. Laker fans are delusional. They're still having a Kobe/MJ argument.
Interesting how he changed his tune years later. I recall back in 2003 after the Spurs won it all and keep in mind, Duncan was league MVP and finals MVP they asked Legs if Tim was the best player in the game and he said "No Kobe is"..
Kobe has become a sad parody.
Hiring film crews to do ent his final games.
Desperately trying to hold on to the attention he once had.
He's the polar opposite of Duncan.
