You cannot discredit what Boston did. Just because there were limited teams. Many of the championships Boston won were against LA.
Let's talk about how the present is all that matters. Since the past isn't thr best all-timr as you say. Would you like to discuss the present state of the Lakers? Or the future for that matter? Also to argue Kobe Owns Duncan is ridiculous given that Kobe has less accolades. Ie (fmvp and mvp) furthermore when you discuss playoff statistics give me an active player who has more top 5 ranked stats than duncan in thee main statistics that matter

what is kobe best at? MJ is better than him as a scorer, and thats basically all kobe has on his resume. all his greatest accomplishments are point totals
Kobe does not have less accolades. If we're going to truly compare everything that has ever been won by Jim and Kobe then you have to include Olympic Golds... Jim has none... All-Sar MVP's... Kobe has the most of any player... Player of the Months and Weeks... Kobe is killing Jim in this category. The simple fact that the league has awarded Kobe Player of the Month 17 times and Player of the Week 33 times compare to Jim's 23 and 3 speaks volumes. That's right... he only made player of the month 3 ing times in his entire career.
The only knock you guys have on Kobe is he missed the playoffs twice in his career. Really three due to injury but check this out... even though Jim has never missed the playoffs in his career Kobe has been to the Finals more times. Chew on that. You want top 5 playoff stats? Kobe has more points, steal and assists than Jim in the playoffs and yet Jim has played 41 more games. And don't get me started on head to head... do we need to go there? I thought so. No matter how you slice it... Kobe is ting on Jim.
All Star MVPs
Player of the Month
Player of the Week
"Accolades"

Kobe on Jim 4-2

The Spurs have not repeated, that is true. Oh well.....They still have 5 les in 6 tries. They have either the best or 2nd best winning % in NBA history. During the Tim Duncan era, they have the best winning % of all the pro teams in the 4 major US sports leagues. They are the best small market franchise in the history of North America.
The Spurs have been good for almost their entire NBA existence, with only 6 losing seasons in over 40 years, and only missing the playoffs 4 times. Also, they have the longest streak of consecutive 50 win seasons.....which most likely would be two years longer, if not for the strike to start the 98-99 season. They won 56 during Duncan's rookie year, and then 37 in 50 games during the strike year.
Are the Spurs on the same level with the Celtics or Lakers, NO....and I am ok with that. I am happy with us being the 3rd best team in NBA history. Before you mention the Bulls, yes they had a nice run in the 90s, but aside from that decade, the franchise has been subpar. Even in recent years, they have done basically nothing in the postseason, while the Spurs, Lakers, Heat, and Mavs have been doing great things over the last decade.
So enjoy your Lakers, and I will enjoy my Spurs. While you have a lot of history to enjoy for your proud franchise, your present kind of sucks. It reminds me of the Spurs of the late 80s. Our present is pretty nice, and I will enjoy the last season or two of Duncan and Manu.......I know once they are gone, our success will probably drop off a bit.
GO SPURS GO
