Tim Duncan > Kobe Bryant according to ESPN writer

[TheNig]

Gimme Timmy in a no contest...

Has been a top 10 scorer

Has been a top 10 rebounder

Has been a top 10 shot blocker

Plus if you take Kobe, well...don't you also need Phil to coach him and another Hall of Fame big man to play with Kobe...unless you just trying to be the 8th seed or not make the playoffs

Duncan played with and won championships with 2 potential HOF and one guy whose already in the Hall.

Duncan has been great this yr and this is the first time we've witness Kobe suffer an injury of this magnitude but Duncan was some shyt since 2010. I'm not ignoring that.

If Duncan is so much better and never missed the playoffs, how come hes only been to the finals four times? Kobes been there 7.

[Da_Eggman]

How many times has Duncan played with 4 Hall Of Famers and two extra multiple all stars and barely made an 8th seed?

Kobe has never been on an 8th seed team. What are you talking about?

How many times has Duncan been to the finals compared to Kobe? How many times has Duncan lost to a lower seed compared to Kobe?

 

[MoneyTron]

I haven't made one for him? Ask @CantStop where he got that Tim Duncan smiley from, and this classic :Nopostmoves:

You went too far b :Ididnttouchit:

How does that compare to the sheer greatness of . An obvious member of the All-Coli 5th Team. :troll2:

How many times Duncan played without one of the GOAT coaches?

 

[Da_Eggman]

How many times Duncan played without one of the GOAT coaches?

as many times as Kobe won without THE GOAT coach

 

[MoneyTron]

as many times as Kobe played with THE GOAT coach

Horrible post.

 

[swag2011]

Duncan has been great this year but tony parker was still their best player and has been from some time. If Kobe had lost to an 8th seed team as the number 1 seed favorites we would never hear the end of it. Dude still gets blamed for for losing to a superior team that they had no business being up 3-1.

This is Duncan's first time being all NBA 1st team in what 6 years lol? For total career, I give the edge to Duncan barely but it can go either way. If we talking post 04, its Kobe.

0. So why is it that Kobes been to 7 finals to Tims 4?

 

[Torrential]

To win you one game, both at their primes the logical choice is Kobe. You're lying to yourself if you're choosing Duncan. Y'all damn well know Kobe could slow down the opposing teams best player and also come back on offense and give you 30+.

Plus if the game is close you know he has that clutch factor too.

Duncan is a good player but benefits from playing in a system where the ball is run through the post and and has an excellent coach. Kobe was great playing within the system Phil ran but was also great playing outside of it at times when the championship teams he played on were struggling down the stretch of key games.

Kobe is the more versatile player and brings more to the table. Kobe> Duncan

Kobe is the best player post Michael, please let's stop all this revisionist bullshyt.

Shaq (MOST DOMINANT EVER). Phil Jackson (GOAT COACH), Pau Gasol (TOP 5 PF IN PRIME), must i go on
