Hakeem was 20x better than Tim Duncan - Robert Horry ... 2 titles with both

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Go look at them 1999-2003 Spurs rosters and go play in traffic

This...... that roster with Speedy Claxton....

Gi

I still haven't heard what Tim can do better than the Dream

They literally do the exact same thing just in completely different ways it all boils down to who you think is more effective because Tim was just as good of a defender and offensive player and his post game is on par with dream's along with jabbar and Mchale

 

[Supreme365]

So Tim didn't join a 20 win team with a 33 year old center with a bad back?

Like Hakeem didn't join a team with a HOF center coming off a Rookie Of The Year season his damn self

 

[surv2syn]

And Timmy had to contend with Dirk, KG, CWebb, Sheed, Amare at his position and still managed 10 first team spots. PF position was at his finest during Tim's career

At you throwing past their primes Kareem and Moses in there. Kareem was 37 when Hakeem got to the league

Tim won his MVP's competing against AI, TMac, KG, Shaq, Kobe, Jason Kidd all of them in their prime and other HOFers

Won titles in the same era as the Shaq/Kobe Lakers, Big 3 Heat, the Big 3 Celtics, and the mid 00's Pistons

yeah, WC was stacked at PF at that time

however...to play devil's advocate here....Timmy rarely guarded those guys. He normally guarded the lesser offensive player. Duncan is my dude since Wake Forest but him being listed as a PF for most of his career has overrated him. He was truly a Center (I know, really bball is positionless) and always played next to another Center. if you have two Centers one has to be listed at PF, ala Hakeem/Sampson. Likewise if you have two PF's, like Tristan/Love, one has to be listed at PF. ingenious, but if you want to call it by position, Mailman was the best PF IMO. If you disagree fine, but if you rate Timmy as a Center where does he rank? No where close to Hakeem.

please dont take this as shytting on Timmy, the boy was great but that season that Admiral was out set off a chain of events that would impact the league for years to come.

 

[Supreme365]

A Spurs team with an aging Robinson coming off an injury and Avery Johnson as the next best player ain't the greatest situation to go to either be real

They werent shyt and perennial losers and Tim single handedly turned them into champs in 2 years with an average roster

It took Hakeem 10 damn seasons and a MJ retirement to get a ring

Well shyt you could say it took a mj retirement for he spurs to get their first ring too

If hakeems the goat big man then how come only 3 finals in 18 years? Cant all be because of Jordan.
He should have had more. Why is he only known for 94 and 95? What did he do the rest of his nba career? No one talks about that.
Why only 6 all nba first team? 1 mvp?

 

[Supreme365]

It's crazy how people always phrase it as "Timmy played with HOF Tony Parker and Manu Ginobli" instead of "Timmy helped turn Manu Ginobli and Tony Parker into HOF"...like ...this is like saying "Well you can't give Timmy THAT much credit I mean he did play his whole career with a guy who was drafted 28th overall and a guy who was drafted 57th overall". Cause we know every team in the nba is just littered with all these guys who are taken at the end of the 1st and the end of the draft who end up being HOF players right ...the HOF is littered with guys who were drafted 57th overall

People always talk about the system not realizing that he's the fukkING SYSTEM!!! Van gundy said that pop told him the reason why they beat his knicks for the first chip was simple we have Duncan and you don't I can't name 5 players in the history of this game that I'd rather have as my centerpiece then Duncan

 

[Guvnor]

I believe him, Hakeem is super slept on. When Jordan retired The Rockets won the rings and I feel if Jordan didn't come back we would be talking about Olijuawon a lot more. The rockets may have crushed the NBA!

 

[Supreme365]

No dummy...that's your logic and your name isn't Shaq. Shaq and everyone else knows how dominant he was and he's probably not trying to rock Kobe's boat right now anyway...these are his celebration years. All the older players hold onto Kobe because he was the last great player of their ilk. They all despise that side of Lebron's competitiveness for ushering this "team-up" era. They've always given Kobe the nod for his willingness to go at it alone and not take the easy way out. Older players have said it a million times...This Bron/KD way of doing things is unforgivable in their eyes.

Its about Hakeem being better than Duncan. If you can find 24 NBA players that say otherwise then you might be on your way to proving something.

Till then suck on the fact that the OVERWHELMING MAJORITY of NBA players agree with me when it comes to Kobe's place in NBA history rather than your delusional hating ass.

Tim Duncan and LeBron James are not as good as Kobe according to the OVERWHELMING MAJORITY of NBA players.

It's about Hakeem being better based on the fact he was a teammate as well, you only had an issue with his opinion after you found out what he said about Kobe & Duncan (Calling it stupid), which is something I literally said you'd do
