Bucks: Tim Duncan is the third best player of all time..

[djohn2oo8]

Just the few cherry picked ones? Yes. He was indeed better than Duncan with those stats.

No, do those stats mean he was a better player? Stop dancing around the question.

[cobbler]

Look at amb go. They should call it ambchanging

He's an idiot. Talks in circles. Repeats over and over thinking his moronic comment will magically come true. It's comical to watch him get so frustrated and insecure. Entertainment at it's best!


Summarized...

KOD:He couldn't stop the 3peat.

AMB: Yes he did.

KOD: Are you stupid?

AMB: He stopped the 3peat TEAM on the 4peat. (Which is answering the previous question with a resounding YES)

Next he will reply with show me where I was wrong.

[ambchang]

What did I change? Even if I did, what is wrong with that? Things change, I get additional insights, and criteria change. You appear to be entrenched in your opinion without the ability to open up.

EDIT: I know what I changed, I used to think Hakeem's peak > Duncan's peak, but thanks to you, I can now say they are very similar, with either side having a case.

No, do those stats mean he was a better player? Stop dancing around the question.

No, not those stats alone.

piling on because you got your takes thrown back at your face.

This is an improvement, at least you are showing examples of what you thought was wrong, but DOK phrased his wording horribly. Duncan did stop the 3peat team, you are just too stupid to realize that my point was that DOK didn't phrase what he meant to have said clearly.

Haven't seen anything thrown in my face. Certainly not by a moron like yourself.

I absolutely love this! And you wonder why everyone, including Spurs fans are calling you an idiot almost daily here. Let me school you some more.

Here is KOD's quote...

Advanced stats should also show why Duncan couldn't stop the threepeat right?

It's worded just fine and grammatically correct. Nowhere in that post is the word team used. Lets look at "stop the threepeat". Three peat is the term used when a team accomplishes the goal of winning three les in a row. Got that? The Lakers had gone back to back. Let me make this easier of you. They were sitting on a two peat and attempting to three peat. Make sense? I'm guessing probably not but let's move forward regardless. Had he said "threepeat team" then you would be correct. He did not. He said the "threepeat". And no, Duncan nor his team stopped it. In fact, they caved to the Lakers 4-1 in the conference semi-finals thus allowing the Lakers to go forward (quite easily) and obtain the three peat.

Here's another fact for you that further validates KOD's comment and well, looks bad for your take. The Lakers went through the Spurs on their two peat also. So Duncan could have stopped both the back to back and the three peat. Failed at both to the tune of 1 win and 8 losses.

And you call me out for being stupid and KOD for not wording a perfect worded comment correctly? This is what you constantly do and everyone sees it. Even when shown to be the fool you try to spin it to give your idiotic comments some sort of validity and it only makes you look more foolish.

You sir, quite simply, are a dumb .

Nope, not worded correctly.

It should have been:
Advanced stats should also show why Duncan couldn't stop Shaq from completing a threepeat, right?

I recalled you as the only one who really goes out of his way in calling me stupid, but my memory is short, I rely on logic most of the time.

[Arcadian]

DOK

You mean KOD? Or are those the same person?

[cobbler]

you shouldn't insult people by calling them re s.

Perhaps you should follow your own advice before admonishing others? It was you who threw out the first re comment AMB. Again, you are looking like a fool.

every single one of your posts has been nothing but attacks

Have to call it as I see it AMB. See above.

admitting to being wrong and that is not being thrown back in your face

I admitted misunderstanding ONE post and acknowledged I was wrong. It's what mature people do when shown you weren't correct. Unlike your MO which is to constantly repeat that you are correct when you clearly are not. Talking in circles, it's comical.

Nope, not worded correctly.

Nope. It's worded just fine. Completing a three peat and thee peating are one in the same in this context. Yikes. Same ole MO AMB. No matter how much you try to spin this you cannot make it work. You were wrong!

I recalled you as the only one who really goes out of his way in calling me stupid, but my memory is short, I rely on logic most of the time.

I see your recollection is on par with your memory. Very short.

[cobbler]

Fixed. Thanks for pointing out the error.

[ambchang]

I don't really have a problem with it, just that you were the one getting all sensitive over it, but not following your own advice. I find your hypocrisy amusing.

Have to call it as I see it AMB. See above.

As Thread would say, can dish it but can't take it. You were the one crying about the insults, I never had a problem, it's just that you tried to put yourself on a higher ground, but failed miserably.

Wouldn't mind what you have shown.

Your logical failure of the top 10 list and the "I agree/we agree" issue. That's two by my count. So you are more mature than you give yourself credit for. But a better thing to do is not be wrong then accuse others at being wrong to begin with.

Disagree. Three-peat, by the way, isn't even a proper word. Riley came up with it after 88, and the proper usage of it is not set in stone. You just failed to realize it.

I see your recollection is on par with your memory. Very short.

Not entirely sure how you can use recollection and memory in this context without it being one and the same.

WOW. How can someone be so wrong on so many levels? Truly amazing! I do have to give you credit though for sticking to your comments no matter how absurd they are. But again, no matter how hard you try to spin them, you will never make your takes come true.

You lecture me on personal insults. You throw out personal insults on a large proportion of your responses.

You lecture me on repeating the same points over and over. You repeat the same points (incorrectly, I might add) over and over.

Two repeats in the same post and two personal insults in the same post.

Do you follow anything you "lecture" other people to do?

Or more precisely, do you NOT do anything you "lecture" other people not to do?

You're just another idiot. Proving it daily I might add. Yep "idiot" is definitely overrating with respect to you.

[da_suns_fan]

Spurs fan tries to turn every argument into a meta argument.

I dont care what his grammar was. It doesnt change the fact that Duncan never repeated.

And didnt peak as high as Shaq in any single advanced statistical category.

And lost to an eighth seed.

And won a bronze medal.

So no, he's definitely not the third best player of all time.

Not even close.

so who's the third best of all time? You find any single player who ever played, and I can give you blemishes that equal or exceed Duncan's.

No, not those stats alone.

So your advanced stats don't sway the argument.
