    One of those MVPs belongs to Tim. In 1999 Tim was the best player and he dominated Malone in their head to head matchups. The Spurs also finished with the same record. I still have no idea how Malone got that one over Tim. And Tim is a top 5 player of all-time, so yeah, he's clearly above Malone in any ranking.

    Karl Malone is overrated. He's not even the 2nd or 3rd best PF - those are Garnett and Nowitzki. One could even make a case for Barkley, Pet , and McHale over Malone.

    Duncan played the defensive end of the floor his whole career, and anchored one of the best historically great defensive units to ever hit the hardwood.

    there is only a debate because Duncan played center for many years ... ask who was the better player and its no debate at all

    Sadly, I've seen more people forgetting how dominant Tim was.

    I used to like this Canadian NBA writer on Twitter, he always said good stuff about Spurs but after his Shaq>Tim I unfollowed him...Also unfollowed 2 Falcons fans who had the same answer about top 3 players.

    Malone had two things going for him...

    longevity and scoring

    duncan matched longevity, and as for scoring, Stockton and even hornacek fed him with a silver spoon. He got so many open looks. His idea of defense was hacking. I would take Barkley and Michael over Malone any day... Garnett and nowitzki played more like small forwards. Barkley could post up, shoot the three, rebound, and pass

    Didn't even really play in those finals. And I can't count a bandwagon final.

    He played in four of the five games before quitting when the series became unwinnable. It was a fitting end to the career of such a chicken .

    Elvin Hayes and Duncan are the only classic scorer/rebounder/shot blocker power forwards of all time.

    Media didn't want to reward a second-year player in a strike shortened season. Sound logical? Maybe not; but that's how these elites operate.

    Of your 2 through 5, Malone is the only one I'd put in McHale's stratosphere.

    "Could be argued" He was instrumental without question. Even '14 he was probably the best Spur the first 2 games.

    He could've been a true top ten player if he had done the work; same with Shaq.

    Stupid debate.

    That's like a child in a sandbox debating whether to play with the cat in the sand or the toy in sight.
