Duncan and Kobe's careers Put Bird and Magic's to shame.

[Pointguard]

Every year Magic was healthy and played - a good ten years, and every healthy year Bird played, you thought they could win it all. With other great teams and all. I thought SA would win in years other teams sucked. Shaq and Kobe for about 5 years, maybe about 8 in total for Kobe. 8 or 9 for Duncan and he could never get that back to back. So longevity doesn't improve stock to me, unless its Kareem where he either was the contender or the best player in the game for like 19 years.
