Kawhi Leonard is clearly on his way to become the 2nd best spur ever at worst..

These guys are good!

You cant descredit ability during era played. If anyone defended anyone today there would be 3 good players in the league. Its disgusting.

We can play this game with DRob too... if he had a prime Ginobili and Parker... DRob would've rang before TD's arrival. Except you don't extend that same courtesy to him and prefer to knock him down. I love that Kawhi is the face of the Spurs franchise. He's a greater player than most people give him credit for - always adding to his game. Relentless. Assassin-like.

The problem with player fans like you is that you love Kawhi more than you love the Spurs... and you actually would prefer that he leave the franchise.

But Duncan DIDN'T have a prime Dino and Parker in 2003 and 2005

I hate to break it to you, but D-Rob even in 2003 was better than any of the big men Duncan played with since. Which other big man next to Duncan ever pulled down 17 rebounds in a series clinching playoff win?

Also, Manu was a stud in 2005. He was great against the Nuggets, exceptional against the Sonics, was a wrecking ball against the Suns and was great against the Pistons (up to the point when Tayshaun Prince kneed him in the thigh - but came back strong for games 5, 6, and 7).

How quickly people forget.

Besides this isn't about Duncan... apalisoc_9 is attempting to give more prominence to Kawhi by using an argument which he himself has used in the past to discredit David Robinson. I'm simply calling him out on the inconsistency - on his cherry-picked logic.

Kawhi is great and perhaps can be legitimately better player than David Robinson was BUT he isn't there yet. Robinson is still top-5 all time player in career PER, bad back and all - and has one of the best career NET ratings (ORTG - DRTG), again spanning his entire career including the years he played with a herniated disc in his spinal column.

Parker was 1 dimensional in 2003.

In 2004 the lakers proved it to him after they started sagging off of him and denying him the paint. His lack of a jumpshot that series is one of the reasons we lost.

His hard work on that weakness made him a MUCH better player from that series on.

Now that's the face of a dude hating his life! He's going to be so grateful to play here. lol
