Tim Duncan Isn't Better Than Karl Malone

[NBASTATMAN]

I am just saying.. Karl Malone would have never been manhandled like Duncan today.. Even at 40 yrs of age.. Tim Duncan is a product of playing for a great coach and at a time with few bigs to go against.. There is no reason why Tim should get dominated like he did today.. Dude can't even get a rebound vs Bynum.. And some people think he the 4TH BEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME..

Yes, yes he is. Karl Malone's defense was never close to prime Tim. Certainly, Tim is not the 4th best player ever. But better than Karl Malone? Is that a joke?

I agree, some would say KG was better, just in a bad situation

I think it is very clear you didn't watch Tim Duncan in the early decade of the 2000s.

[G-Funk]

Yes, yes he is. Karl Malone's defense was never close to prime Tim.

good point

Oh please... just goes to show you don't know what you're talking about...

talking to the OP.

KG is a more talented player and easily could of won as many rings as Duncan in his situation, maybe more who knows.

and yes im serious


and its a fact.

4rings > 0Rings

[creepingdeath]

Umm.. yes, he is.

Tim Duncan > Karl Malone

Is anyone else shocked at how badly Duncan has fallen off though? I always thought his game would allow him to be dominant even at age 34,35 ala Malone/Kareem or Jordan. I mean, Kobe has more mileage and yet is far better at this point.

at Tim being a product of his coach and the time he played in. OP forgot what prime Timmy was like

Ya that is surprising to me as well. For someone who never relied much on his athleticism, he declined quick. I too always thought he would remain dominant for a longer time.

Tim was great really great up until a knee scope he had in 2000 i believe.. I truly believe he was never the same player again.. Yes I know he won again but he never displayed the game I saw him display in 99..
