Hakeem was the better player but what Tim is doing is approaching Kareem status. Also you can't really use the minutes argument against Timmy because him and Hakeem were comparable in that regard over the course of their careers.

Huge Duncan fan but I gotta go with the dream. Scored much more at his peak, was quicker laterally, had more steals and blocks at his peak, and was better at the foul line. I don't know if he was the leader and calming force that Duncan is but just in a vacuum for one game I think if I had to choose I would go with Hakeem.

Duncan, and its not as close as you guys are portraying. Hakeem is great but there is a straight up love affair with him on the coli. The man had incredible moves but he lost to Barkley Malone Robinson and others a lot. The 93 rockets won 55 games but lost to the ACTUALLY Better sonics... even in 95 the rockets were damn near 500 before the drexler trade. He had a lot of help when he got over the hump....


Duncan came in the league and won immediate and never fukkin stopped and has tier ZERO longevity...absolutely him

Going with the dream, he's never had a a great roster or coaching around him all of his career like duncan
So that's just wrong. He was in danger of not repeating and they fleeced the blazers for his running buddy drexler and its proven that Robert sorry and Kenny smith and Mario Elie and Otis Thorpe were legit role players and complemented well.

shyt outside of replacing kahwei all those guys would start on today's spurs.
