Why Do Ppl Rank Duncan Over Olajuwon?

[rmt]

Was that why old ass Robinson had to defend Shaq instead of prime TD?

And yeah, Hakeem would never have been able to do anything at all vs the Pistons, haha.

Get real, Hakeem was a better offensive player and a better defensive player compared to Duncan. Duncan during the '05 finals vs the Pistons averaged 20 points on 42% shooting, in fact, he got outshot in terms of FG% by the guard Manu and the freaking point guard Parker. It's safe to say that Hakeem would have done it better.

Are you questioning the importance of TD averaging 20.6 points / 14.1 rebs / 2.1 asst / 0.4 steals / 2.1 blks against the reigning DPOY Ben Wallace, Rasheed and Dice vs Parker 13.9 pts / 2.4 rebs / 3.5 asst / 0.3 steals / 0.1 blks. If you're going by FG%, I guess TD had a better steal percentage than TP too.

Anyone that thinks Duncan is better than Olajuwon, or even as good as him - is retarded. PERIOD.

End of discussion.

M'eh. This is debatable and it can go to either side. I'd roll with Duncan. Both guys IMO can go as high as #1 on the all time list with solid cases. BTW, Timmy has solid case for the honor of GOAT defender as well, but Hakeem's case is slightly better.

Suddenly a 22 year old Amare Stoudemire became one of the greatest offensive players of all-time...

So who could stay in front of Amare then? We know that Duncan had no chance..

Pau Gasol in the playoffs that year stopped Amare way better than what TD did, this must mean that Gasol officially is the GOAT defender..

And finally, you're a Robinson buttyboy, just check your nick..

I'm giving props to Amare. You're bashing TIM because at 260 he can't stay in front of freak athlete Amare who weighs about 235. Just kill yourself. WTF does Robinson have to do with this? If you watched that series, you would know Amare did most of his damage from Nash pnr. Just go away. Hakeem did his thing for two years while MJ was gone. Good for him. He is one of the best players ever. One series against a soft Robinson while MJ was out gambling doesn't make him way better than any big. Duncan played in an era where the bigs had it tough. The league didn't want him to succeed, and he still accomplished more than Hakeem. Bye
