I don't think the Spurs would have won as much.

I think Tony Parker is a much better overall player. Shoots better, penetrates better...has the ability to take over games better than Jason Kidd ....which Parker did very well at times when Manu and Duncan got a little cold.

Penetrates better...:usure:

Highly disagree with this.

When great players talk about the best pg's of all time, Kidd is mentioned. Parker isn't.

That said I think they would have won as much if not more.

a team of Prime Duncan and Prime Kobe would probably win titles...forever...they might still be winning titles right now...

There is no question in my mind that of all the hypothetical combinations, Bean and Duncan intrigues me the most. Their games mesh so well together. I see 7-8 rings if they played together from 2000-2015.

You think Tony Parker is better than
Kidd all time? Man I'm 15 but y'all really don't know basketball

Jason Kidd is a prototypical point guard.
He's a pass-first guy.

But Kidd is an offensive zero and was for most of his career.

You can't get past the fact that Parker shoots about 50% for his career while Kidd shot 40%.

This is a forum where we wanna act like Duncan only wins because of Parker and Manu....but now we got a thread where Parker only wins because of Manu and Duncan
