If Duncan was playing and Kawhi wasn't, how would we look got?
Metrics, eye test and intangibles support his case..

You are a ty poster tbh. Makes no ing sense.![]()
Spurs were undefeated in the finals before cornrows became a Spur. Let that sink in daboom.
That's like replacing Kawhi with another Tony Parker type player on defense. Just not going to ing work.![]()
Duncan is the franchise and pop still riding his coattails at 40 years old smh.
Duncan 2016
Spurs got bounced by the 8th seed Grizz RIGHT BEFORE Kawhi arrived & swept them w/ Kawhi on the roster![]()
Which is why the phrase "Team Duncan" exists.
Trying to imply that Kiwi was a big reason why it happenedParker was healthy the second time, Duncan lost weight, and Blair got benched. That's the difference on why they murdered that scrub ass team
Based on the history of the team when Kawhi has been out with injury: Tim makes them a legit squad, Kawhi makes them elite.
Porky was plenty healthy, he was just busy getting locked up by Conley: http://www.48minutesof .com/on-th...of-tony-parker

Tony with the 24.5ppg, 3.5rpg, 9.5apg.... Compared to Kawhi's 11ppg and 7rpg lol.
Bottom line is.... Duncan has anchored an NBA best defense without Kawhi. If this is what a Kawhi anchored defense looks like....![]()
I'm not disagreeing with that. I'm saying take Kawhi or Tim out of the game and the team looks worse on defense. You can't take these games and outright say Duncan is our DPOY.
Great defensive bigs are move valuable than great perimeter defenders. The biggest reason why bigs are more valuable is that they can cover up defensive lapses by teammates more easily than perimeter defenders.
Kawhi has the lateral quickness of a PF, gets blown by all the time. Disgusting tbh. He's an elite help defender though.
Life after Tim is going to be grim:
Pop giving West that undeserved vet treatment and doesn't play boban how he should. Kinda like porker last year.![]()
^^^^
What you said is the truth.
We will need a rim protecting big to be a legit contending squad without Tim.
All the time?Kawhi's shut down players holding them to their worst FG% in the season.
If LMA and West are gonna be our rim protectors...Life after Tim is going to be grim:
This entire forum is infested with the stupid now.
Congratulations, you played yourself.
Change your avy, , get that ass play out of here..
He can recover pretty well, and has good reaction timing (IE the block he had on KD opening game) to make up for it, but yes, quick guards/wings get by him a decent amount of the time. So there isn't any confusion, I'm not saying he gets blown by like Tony or somebody, but he's no Scottie Pippen, , or Danny Green even(when he's locked in).
