McHale vs Barkley vs Malone vs Duncan vs Garnett vs Webber in their PRIMES

[SayTownRy]

KG in 2003 was in every way better than Tim Duncan

except:

scoring, fouling, blocking, offensive rebounding, FG%, and leading a team of these guys:

David Robinson (worn down) | Stephen Jackson (not the player he is now) | Malik Rose | Tony Parker (who got benched in the finals for speedy)| Emanuel Ginobili (no where near superstar status) | Bruce Bowen (still coming into his own) | Steve Smith | Speedy Claxton | Kevin Willis | Steve Kerr | Danny Ferry | Devin Brown | Anthony Goldwire | Mengke Bateer

to a championship.

KG in 2003 was in every way better than Tim Duncan

Yet can't win without a great team. What Duncan did in 03 was something few have done. Many stars would consider even making the playoffs with that squad to be a significant achievement. Duncan won a ring and beat the Lakers with that team, which was inferior to KG's team when he made the WCF. KG is NOT the big game player Duncan is. KG is NOT as skilled as prime Timmy. KG is NOT better than Duncan. Get over it.

You can argue that Duncan is more clutch than Garnett, and Garnett often chokes at playoffs.

The reason is that Duncan came into the league into a playoff team, so playing in the playoff is natural for him, and he doesn't panic.

No, Duncan came into a team that had a very lousy record. Not a playoff team.

George Best played for Northern Ireland buttmunch. what is the 'mechanical orange'?

Sorry true. Mechanical Orange was the Great Dutch National Team of the 70s Full of Stars. Best was better than Cryuff. So was Lato and Cubillas but they did not get the marketing Cryuff did because they played in weaker teams.

Give Barkley a GREAT PRIME CAST in BARKLEY`s PRIME and expect a 92 and 96 Olympic Barkley. I get very easy playing with Great Casts that Can Defend for one as well as Pass, Shoot etc...
