Yet here you stand, naked and shivering in the cold wake of your team's demise, on the Spurs website contemplating a Cavs jersey.
You stupid ass, you. You & CN both. You have the vision of Helen Keller.
MVP & Finals MVP's are as you call them "popularity"
Kobe: 5 les + 2 Finals MVPs + 1 MVP + 4 All Star game MVP's = 12 Trophies
Duncan: 5 les + 3 Finals MVPs + 2 MVPs + 1 All Star game MVP = 11 Trophies
Ooops
Gawd would be top 3 dead or alive. The day is coming. 4 more months.
all star game MVP
You should probably add in a pic of a big mexican at the end of Tammies awards.
He was still the best or second best player for the Spurs, its not like he was ring chasing.
tee hee
I called you a Cavs fan and you denied it, then recanted and said you'd support them. You're a real piece of .
No they aren't. Leonard isn't popular, didn't even make the ASG, wad.
LOL noKobe: 5 les + 2 Finals MVPs + 1 MVP + 4 All Star game MVP's = 12 Trophies
Duncan: 5 les + 3 Finals MVPs + 2 MVPs + 1 All Star game MVP = 11 Trophies
And you forgot Rookie of the Year
Idiot
Lebron's 2012 championship shouldn't count as well.
Did you just try to make the argument that Duncan won the MVP because of "popularity"?
The Spurs that never got any mainstream recognition, never got any hype, were never even mentioned until the playoffs rolled around -- suddenly they're the spotlight of the NBA because it retrospectively serves your narrative? That is ing hilarious.
This is the same forum that had countless threads ing and moaning about Spurs ratings in the Finals because no one cared about them except hardcore basketball fans and the fans of the two teams in the finals.
Duncan is already Top 5 all-time and if he wins number 6, people are going to inevitably compare him to Jordan. However, Dad Killer would still be a little ahead of him in terms of overall career.
I don't even think it merits a comparison, honestly.
Although I DO think that every single le run, Duncan has been the best player on the team. He was clearly the best on 99/03/05 with absolutely no argument, and the 03 playoff run should stand on the pantheon of great playoff performances. His play was absolutely insane that entire playoffs, especially in the Finals. People talking about him shooting 41% against the Pistons when he was being doubled by the Wallaces who were one of the greatest frontcourt defensive combos in history, and Duncan still curbstomped them in the deciding game. His bum ankle that series was his good leg.
In 07, Duncan was better throughout the playoffs and then Parker had a monster Finals.
In 14, Duncan again was the most consistent Spur from series to series, Kawhi just woke up in the last 3 games and stole the show. But the playoff MVP for 2014 should still go to Duncan.
That said, he's got a ways to go before ascending to Jordan level. If he is the best Spurs player again this post-season and the Spurs get 6, you could easily make the argument that Duncan is a top 3 player in history, though, behind Michael and Kareem.
The definitive ranking is championships + MVP + FMVP like the previous poster posted. (AMVP = LOL)
Duncan is top 5 and only behind Jordan, Kareem, Magic, and Russell (weakest era and most stacked team ever versus the compe ion, but you have to put him on there to be respectful to senior citizens) in my book, top 10 on all other rankings.
He has by far the smallest market, team budget and supporting cast of anyone on top 10 all time to be honest, can you imagine if he had Kobe or Pippen when he was in his prime? His 2003 run was the single greatest individual playoff performance ever, that Spurs team without him would be the weakest -1 player championship team ever. Unfortunately he burned himself out after that year and was never quite the same.
LeBron will most likely knock Duncan out of top 5 however, because he controls his own destiny and builds his own super teams. Before anyone say head-to-head, Duncan has a losing record against Kobe too and we all know Duncan is ahead.

It was in the case when Pierce sat in that wheelchair...

It would do jack , Jims as relevant as Kobe is.
Duncan could don the purple and gold TODAY and be the best player on the floor for the Lakeshow, healthy Kobe or not.
well they are 13-40, so yeah jim could be the best player, your damn smart.Duncan could don the purple and gold TODAY and be the best player on the floor for the Lakeshow, healthy Kobe or not.
"you're"
Bravo
Weird, I guess the best player on the defending champions seems relevant to me. But then again, what do I know? I know the Lakers would pay a lot to have a post player who could average 16 and 9 in 32 minutes in the post-season.
You asshole you.
But, it wasn't in there, dummy. Yours was. It was over. Over over. Then the shadow of Amy appeared & Tim flubbed his in' dub.It was in the case when Pierce sat in that wheelchair...
