I am just honest. I don't let being a fan of the spurs effect in a way of distorting reality on who is the best player in the game. Garnett does not have the players around him to compete for the championship but Duncan does. Phoenix should scare all of you on the additions they got this summer. Phoenix are very well prepared to knock off the spurs with their 2 new additions. Bell will be defending Ginobili and Johnson on Parker which would be perfect for Phoenix.
BTW, other than FTs, Duncan could work on this drives to the basket. Right now, he is great from 15-18 with that bank shot, and I admit the defenders are giving him that because they fear his ability to drive to a certain extent, but if he could start driving the ball to the basket and kick it out, he would be deadly.
Shooting a lot of 3 pt shots are not for big man, they are for little guys, or pussy big man who are too afraid to go to the hole. Guys like Garnett and Webber.
Something sadder than trolls who talk sh*t are trolls who pretend to be Spurs fans just so they can strategically and slowly try and make us believe how good one of your players are!
This is too pitiful for words.
Garnett better than Duncan?! Too funny for words.
Exactly.
Yeah, it's probably time to jump to the Phoenix bandwaggon after the clumping you got for being a Wolves fan.
You can be honest, but honesty and stupidity are not mutually exclusive. It would be funny if you were just trolling, but if you were really honest, then you are just dumb.
BTW, Al Harrington's teammates are even worse, and the Hawks sucked too, so by your "logic" that having better teammates and doing worse as a team makes a better player, he is better than Garnett too.
Wow. Duncan hit 3 of 9 of 3 pointing shots. He really is a threat. How lucky was he to make that many because he would never shoot one at an end of game to tie it up. That is not enough shots to consider Duncan a threat at all.
And Garnett shooting 6 or 25, wow, what a threat!
its amazing how you can state over and over and over that duncan shouldnt become a 3 point shooter, but rather be confident shooting them if he is somehow found to be open behind the 3 point line, and yet the words still fly over peoples heads...no reading comprehension apparently
Look, you annoying little envious T-Pup fan, you're the first moron who brought up Garnett being good at 3s, when it's already been proven he's lame:
We NEVER said Duncan was a threat in 3s, moron.
Who are you talking to?
everyone, its a message board
I ing hate the timberwolves but I've seen Garnett hit 3's at an end of a game in the playoffs to burn the Kings. So stop labeling me a t pup fan.
Wtf would you want Duncan shooting 3's??
A thing Duncan could work on during the summer is bulking up a little more and add like 7/8 lbs of muscle to his frame. These past two years he has been pushed around a lot and has been getting outmuscled for rebounds.
Then stop arguing that Garnett is better than Tim, when Tim's going down as being one of the best players in the history of the NBA.
Your love for Garnett and the wolves spills through your pores.
I don't hate Garnett but I hate his teammates. I'll admit to that. I still feel that without Garnett that team would be last place but without Duncan San Antonio would still make the playoffs as the 8th seed.
you're funny...are you just remembering the most recent games you have watched?
go back and look at pictures of Tim in '99
he has bulked up. Tim's had ankle problems this year. This is no secret. Tim also didn't want to risk getting off the floor unnecessarily and coming down on someones foot and ending his season. Also ending the Spurs season. They won the O'Brien and Tim was usually getting at least 15 rebounds per game. What the do you want from him?
Wow! You actually saw Garnett hit 3's at an end of a game in the playoffs to burn the Kings? It can't be this year, cuz the Wolves didn't even make the playoffs, in fact, it has to be 2004 because that's the only year the wolves made it out of the first round and faced the Kings, so Garnett's numbers on 3s were as follows
Game 1 - 0 for 2
Game 2 - 0 for 1
Game 3 - 0 for 1
Game 4 - 1 for 3
Game 5 - 0 for 0
Game 6 - 1 for 1
Game 7 - 1 for 1
So which playoff game did you see him "hit 3's at an end of a game in the playoffs to burn the King"? So maybe yeah, you can't even call yourself a wolves fan, you don't even know what your superhero did!
Yeah and one of those 3 pointers in the playoffs took out the kings. I think it was game 6 where Minnesota took back the home court. Duncan wouldn't even try to burn another team on his 3's because he knows he can't make them.
its enough for me that duncan just works on his ft's and more into his game. he doesnt need the 3 point shot. heck even pop hates 3 point shots. then why take away your best rebounder further away from the rim?
I am not talking about on a regular basis of tons of 3's but just enough for the other team not to you leave you open for a 3 late in the game knowing you won't make it. Duncan should spend tons of time on free throws but not to ignore 3 pointers.
That is why Dirk can't lead his team to the Finals. Because he shoots 3s.
I didn't know 3 point shooting was such a liability. Yeah Dirk relies on long range shooting but so does alot of players. You can't blame one part of their game and say that is why they didn't go far. Bull .
But you said "hit 3's at an end of a game in the playoffs to burn the King". I would say that 3's is more than 1 3.
Game 6, the Wolves won by a huge margin, so the 3 didn't do anything.
For game 7 (http://www.nba.com/games/20040519/SACMIN/recap.html), and the recap was
Given that Garnett saved a broken play, he wasn't being a particular threat out in the perimeter.Minnesota was clinging to a 64-62 lead when Garnett took over. In a four-minute span, he made a jumper, an inside basket, a scoop layup and a dunk after a nasty crossover dribble that left Webber swiping at air and opened a 74-68 lead.
After Sacramento's Brad Miller made a layup, Garnett saved a broken play, beating the shot clock with a 3-pointer for a 77-70 lead with 3:36 to go.
Ok. He was lucky but hit more 3's than Duncan would and in a big game can hit that shot is a bonus and how clutch Garnett is. I wouldn't call Duncan clutch but I would call Horry, Ginobili, and Bowen clutch.
Those 3's that KG hit to beat the kings was a regular season game not the playoffs, being the Wolves fan you are I'm surprised you didn't know
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=231205023 here is the link to the game. Also I've seen Duncan hit a 3 to beat the hornets in a regular season game so that makes it 1-1 with Duncan and KG hitting 3's to win a game. Even though Duncan's was to win a game and KG's was just to force overtime
