Im not saying duncan is your average PF. but he's not what you want him (and many ppl) to be at least not in my book he's not. I'd expect some sick ass games in those finals of him, while he was outshined by ginobili in the first 2 and sucked horse shit in the other 2 and now in game 5 he was decent again but still outshined by horry big time AND just not that amazing.. missed crucial FTs, a crucial tip-in and also alot of shots towards the end including a turnover if im not mistaken. That's not what you expect the best PF of all time to do in close finals during his prime, is it? come on you know it..

btw, 26 points and 19 rebounds against a team like Detroit, in Detroit, after being blown out 2 games strait...is a pretty good game. U forget he's going against two of the best big men in the league right now. Not to mention Ben Wallace is probably (over the last few years) the best defensive player in the league. Without a doubt the best defensive big man in the league. Like i said, he's gone through Kenyon Marting/Marcus Camby....Amare....and now Wallace/Wallace in this playoffs. Last playoff run he went through Shaq, Garnett, and Martin to win a championship. If you wanna just be a hater, thats cool...i understand....there are always haters. But whether u admit it or not, the guy is gonna continue to rack up awards, and possibly championships for a long time. Things that any other "GOAT" candidate doesnt have.

well if you go by championships, why not saying horry is one of the best players ever. isnt he? 6 championships soon. with 3 different teams. always being a major clutch factor. Im not a hater, I think I have the most neutral view of all, because Im more of an NBA Fan and a fan of the sport than of a particular team.

Thing is, im not going ONLY on championships. Im going on every other award a player could possibly win in this league, AS well as the championships. Which none of those other PF's have. None. He'll have more MVP awards then Charles and Malone combined, and obviously more championsips. And u still never said, who is your GOAT? Cus no matter who u pick, they arent as dominant in as many different categories as Duncan. Other then the Mailman and Charles, who else is there up at the top? Moses Malone? I dont think so. Mchale? Had the post moves, a decent defender....but nowhere near on Duncans level. Besides he also had the luxury of playing alongside Bird and Parish most of his career. Reason i call u a hater, is because youre making responses like a lot of other "fans" who only like flash, and no substance. Youre only saying he isnt the best, but not making a case for ANYone else.
