There was no 50 games including playoffs. That doesn't even add up to 50.
Spurs, including playoffs, finished 62-15.
Bulls, in the 96 season, finished 87-13.

Seriously just ban this er and close this thread.

I realize that.

Do you realize that in 2000, Duncan got injured and missed the playoffs?

Do you realize that Duncan battled injuries in '04, '05, and '06?

Do you realize the Spurs probably would have won the NBA les in '04 and '06 had Duncan not been battling injuries? And Duncan would have likely been the Finals MVP?

Do you realize that Duncan was not 100% in '05, and the Spurs won anyway?

Do you realize Duncan lost his 1st team all-NBA slot in '06 because of injuries, and possible more MVPs?

Do you realize that when Jordan took that time off, he got lots of rest, rest that Duncan does not get?

Do you realize that Duncan stayed four years in college, missing one or two years of NBA play?

Do you realize that Duncan plays in the Western conference, which has been the much tougher than the east since Duncan entered the league?

Points not similar.

Michael Jordan was not eligible in those seasons for any regular season honors. NOT ELIGIBLE.

Bulls, in the 96 season, finished 87-13.

The Spurs started 1998-1999, with a record of 6-8.

Then they went 31-5 to finish the regular season and 15-2 in the playoffs. That's an 87% finish for 53 games.

The Bulls never finished that good.

The Bulls finished '96 28-5, and then went 17-3 in the playoffs, for a total of 45-8 over the last 53 games, not as good as the '99 Spurs.

The '99 Spurs would have kicked the out of the '96 Bulls.

Would have? Exactly what type of psychic abilities do you have again?

Rodman was a more athletic Kurt Thomas type defender and would have done a great job against Duncan, with great defensive guards Jordan and Pippen being able to dig down and help him out. Same goes for Robinson, he would just be doubled and forced to kick it out to Eliott and Elie but with Jordan and Pippen being such great perimeter defenders they would be able to gamble a little and still recover to force bad shots. This series would be over in 5 games tops.

dude, Rodman is not tall enough to guard Duncan. He can shot his bank shot right over the top of him.

And the '99 Spurs had Robinson.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

And the 96 Bulls had Jordan.
Case closed.

[oboymeetsogirl]

So where we at? Dikta, 2... God, 20... Jordan, 50... Duncan, 102?

Because he can do this:

[Galileo]

Jordan

6 rings in 13 years = .462 rings per year

Duncan

4 rings in 9 years = .444 rings per year

Did you even read my post?!? I mentioned Robinson you ass. And the 3 inches Rodman gives up are negated by his length and superior athleticism. You ever seen Kurt Thomas guard Duncan? He does the best job of probably anyone in the league, oh and he's a whole INCH taller than Rodman. Give me a break.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

You just did for me. Thanks.

[Galileo]

Because he can do this:

dude, Jordan stripped the ball from Ewing on a doubleteam, what does that prove? Ewing does not pass out of the doubleteamas well as Duncan.

And then Jordan faked a guy out and hit a jump shot. You are fixated on scoring average. Duncan is taller than Jordan. Duncan could just shoot a bank shot over the top of the defender, no need for some fancy juke-fake.

Duncan > Jordan

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

And Jordan won all the Finals MVPs when he won the championship.
Duncan let Tony snag the last one.

[Galileo]

You just did for me. Thanks.

.462 - .444 = .018

Your case rests on .018?

Do you realize that if the Spurs repeat, Duncan will have won 5 rings in 10 years? That's 50%.

He was also pretty consistent at these.

Duncan is a better team player than Jordan. Did you actually watch the series last year? The Spurs had the ring locked up by halftime of game 2. They probably had it locked up far sooner. Duncan had 5 blocks in the first 17 minutes of game one. Cleveland was so demorilized, they never had a chance. Duncan did the same thing to the Knicks in the first half of game one in '99.
