that is pretty minor and more of an afterthought of another reason Garnett is better. I didn't even think about it until someone started a thread about it.
answer the question son.

amare better start jacking up 3's... otherwise dirk is better. they do have the same defensive style...
ok. Kurt Thomas takes long range shots like Q does except a couple feet closer. He won't be the threat on fast breaks but he will be when he gets there. As long as Nash, Stoudemire, and Marion are on the court this team will be a great offensive team and maybe one of the best of all time. I don't know how else to answer it.
oh and dirk is taller than amare... that makes him a better rebounder. he's also german... that makes him more efficient.
You are hilarious. I am not a Dirk fan so you can be happy. He is soft and a bad teammate. He disappears in big games. Stoudemire is a much more reliable offensive threat.
using your logic...he's better than amare. so i guess we'll have to wait til the season starts to see who's right!!!

What logic of mine was so crazy? Name it and I'll explain it.
I think this makes pho a better team. It's gotta help movin amare to the 4, marion to the 3. Really Q ain't that good. He shot less then 40% from the field last year. For a run and gun team like pho, that's pretty bad, especially with nash runnin the point.
I'm still not sold on nash being healthy all of next season. This season was a fluke injury wise for him. The suns will be a better team but will probly struggle to beat the spurs.
rack him. I don't know about the suns vs. spurs but I know the suns will be better and it will be pretty evenly matched.
thats ok swami... when duncan adds a 3pt shot he'll be better than kg... and when amare grows 3 inches AND jacks up 3s... he'll be better than dirk. (i got it) but i still like the thomas move... i still dont think it answers anything for them though. i just like it because it'll slow down the suns a little more... and i liked q and thought he was becoming too one dimensional in phoenix. maybe he'll grow more where he's asked to do more?
Ok Duncan is better without the 3 point shot. Does that make sense? I would rather have Duncan be capable of hitting that shot. Even than I would still give Garnett the edge because of rebounding and passing.
duncan is a post player. a classic post player. garnett is 3 trapped in a 4's body... and even with his great and wonderful "passing" skills... he still doesnt make his team better. (how does that make sense?)
when magic called him out that season to stop thumping his chest and just play and make his team better... could you ever imagine that being said of duncan? (anywhere at anytime?)
Offensively he does but the problem with Minnesota is defense. No one on that roster except maybe Hassell can play defense. Sprewell used to be able to play defense but got old. Garnett can only do so much on defense.
I'll give the edge to Duncan on defense.
no team he's ever been on... any of the one's they've given him in tpup-land has he ever made better. none.
give him a second all-star and he fights with him... stops his progress... where's wally?
As you've seen with Dallas. Teams can't win with offense alone and Minnesota is the same way. They average about the same amount of points as San Antonio and last year they had more but Garnett has an old team and is suffering because of it. Wally is not athletic enough to be good defensively.
you didnt answer my question about him not making anyone else better on any of the teams they've had since he's been there.
steve nash said in the WCF, if there was one reason they were getting beat "it was no. 21. he makes everyone better." and that was funny only because they say that about him too. has anyone ever said that about garnett?
im just saying... i think steve nash would probably see whats going on, on the court, better than anyone else. and if he said something like that... i'd believe it. (and not think it was just smoke being blown up someone's etc)
i think kg is a great player... but to say duncan needs a 3pt shot to be better than him... thats crazy. (of course thats probably your point in this whole thing)
Of course he makes them better. He is their player and with Cassell hurt and Hudson as a starter who wasn't right either because of his ankle. He makes them better and so does Duncan. It is hard to explain how he makes them better but the offense is set up around him which is pretty good.
wow
What? I brought it up pretty late and you must have missed the first few days of this debate on who's better. I don't think the 3 point shot matters that much if at all.
i meant saying crazy stuff. like kg ROCKS! and duncan needs a 3pt shot to be better than a guy without a championship! and phoenix just won the championship cause they got rid of Q and added another undersized center! (things like that)
but ok.
I never said KG rocks and he can be a jerk at times when they are losing. I also see that even though Kurt Thomas is undersized he brings alot to the table for Phoenix like the mid range shot, rebounding, and the outlet pass. I have no idea what will happen but it sounds good for Phoenix.
