Duncan not only never missed the play-offs, but won 50+ games...

37 out of 50 games is equivalent to winning over 60 games in an 82 game season.

That's how much gay buttsex he would have.

Don't bring truth and facts to this debate. The Jordan/Kobe/Bran stans can't handle it.

[Gunslinger]

Larry Bird never missed the playoffs and won at least 52 games every season except the one he missed due to injuries. GOAT

Didn't have the longevity, less rings, less FMVP's.

Next.

The spurs are still making the playoffs with demar Derozan...

You put literally any regular all star on that team and they make it every time.

You act like it's just Demar on the team. He also has LeMarcus Aldridge to carry the load, who is actually our best player.

And you are ignoring Duncan's GOAT locker room and practice presence keeping the Spurs a play-off team even while being retired as a player.

The Spurs organization making Duncan an assistant coach is proof that they acknowledge it is Duncan and not Pop that make the Spurs a winning culture and that they need him on the floor to keep the fire burning.

But they weren't just playoff teams. They were contenders. Duncan won with 20 year old Parker as 2nd option in 2003.

Correcto.

Duncan winning it all with his second option giving him 14 PPG on 38% FG is proof alone that he didn't need stacked rosters just to make the play-offs every season. Along with Hakeem, Dirk and a few others, he did the most with the least in a single season like few others have done before.

Yea Duncan was better than most of the guys I listed. Still by ops criteria, it

You really don

[leBron Bieber]

Every. Single. Time.

True definition of a winner.

GOAT. Impact.

Otoh, normal humans like Jordan, LeBron, Kareem, Kobe, etc missed the play-offs multiple times, some even in their prime, and had numerous sub-50 win seasons giving their teams low seeds with low chances of play-off success.

The GOAT isn't supposed to lose enough games to not even qualify for the play-offs, thus not giving their team even a chance to win, and only Duncan fulfilled this GOAT requirement.

Who cares if you never lose in the first round if you didn't even qualify for the play-offs to begin with?

Making the play-offs > missing the play-offs. No if's, and's or but's about it.

Who's really GOAT, someone who gives their team 12 chances to win it all or someone who gives their team 19 chances?
