    Oh and the Spurs had already turned a 7 point deficit into a 2 point lead when Lebron went out of the game.

    That's WHO the Miami Heat ARE, Bro...They're the Cleveland Cavaliers w/MORE Talent, Meaning LeBron James is EVERYTHING to that Squad...The Spurs were FORTUNATE Conditions Beyond Control Removed Bron from that Game...

    Sure, the Spurs CLINCHED a Series w/Out Parker, but they Also Had an ENTIRE HALF to Get Acclimated...The Heat had about 7 MINUTES to Adjust to Bron NOT Being Out There...Big Difference...

    Anyways, NOBODY Needs to Apologize for Winning & REED has PURGED Himself of Evil, Danny Green Related Thoughts...On to Game 2...

    The Spurs were DOWN 6-7 when Bron 1st Came Out...They were UP 2, when Bron Left the Game for the Second Time...

    Seems a little silly, the criticism Lebron is getting. At the time he first went out he logged more minutes then anybody else on either team.

    People forget how big AND active he is on the court, on both ends.

    It's seems pretty normal a man his size and activity level, would be rendered physically incapable to play in certain circumstances.

    He may not be the next Jordan, but who the fuck is? Besides, we all know that title belongs to Harold Miner. :bears:

    PRIME duncan or bryant:

    celtics- duncan have no bigman and you ALWAYS take the big guy to build around when you can

    nets- duncan -joe johnson is a serviceable wing

    knicks- duncan -put him with anthony and chandler and they are instant champs

    sixers- duncan-have no bigman

    raptors- duncan- already have a bunch of young wing players including derozan

    bulls- bryant - Id probably still take duncan to pair with noah and hope rose gets back healthy but they really could use some perimeter scoring and have two excellent bigmen in noah and gibson

    cavaliers- duncan - already have a young perimeter go to guy in irving

    pistons- bryant- they are set up front with drummond and monroe and have shitty guards. if monroe left and they got duncan with drummond that is a scary front line.

    Pacers- toss up here really. either guy added to this roster makes them champs. hibbert being a bitch means Id take duncan but a case could be made for either.

    bucks- duncan - i had to check who was even on this shitty team. but much like celts and sixers you go with the big when the cupboard is bare

    hawks- duncan- put him with horford and millsap and you got the best front line in the league, with a solid back court of korver and teague.

    hornets- bryant- they could use either guy and though duncan would help them a great deal defending the rim, the presence of jefferson inside means less touches for both guys, and they have a hole at the 2.

    heat- duncan- reed already admitted as much

    magic- duncan- shitty big men and they are solid at guard with afflalo and oladipo

    wizards- duncan- put him with gortat and nene and you have an awesome 3some, beal is a future stud at the 2.

    mavs- duncan- monta ellis is a good scorer at the 2 and they could use duncan next to nowitzki.

    rockets-duncan- him with howard would make it hard for teams to score inside at all. harden at the 2

    grizzlies- bryant

    pelicans- duncan- him and davis makes them tremendous defensively similar to rockets. already have evans/gordon

    spurs- duncan

    nuggets- duncan- they have zero scoring inside. no post players

    wolves- duncan- makes up for love's lack of defense.

    thunder-duncan - instant champs

    blazers- duncan- bigger upgrade over lopez to pair with aldridge than bryant is over matthews

    jazz - bryant- they have some solid young bigmen and hayward could play the 3

    warriors- duncan

    clippers - bryant- griffin and jordan are solid up front

    lakers- duncan- shitty roster but him with gasol could play well together

    suns- duncan - dragic, bledsoe and green are promising guards

    kings -duncan - him and cousins together would be dominant and perhaps he could calm the guy down. sac has some young wings who are better than what they have up front aside from cousins.

    25-7

    How is this even a argument. Duncan is more accomplished, more impactful and one of the best teammates ever.

    Kobe isn't even in Duncan's tier. If Duncan dunked like Blake he would be discussed along with Shaq and Magic let alone Kobe.

    Insult to Duncan.

    I wonder if Duncan and Parker will pretend to cramp up before game 2, probably have more class than that.

    Yeah and Horford plays the exact same position as Duncan, yet you mention Korver as part of a solid back court, please.

    horford and duncan can play together. you dispute this?

    the only teams that wouldnt realistically take bryant over duncan are teams with two excellent big men and a hole at the 2

    The Minnesota one is just as laughable.

    so what is your opinion? that an equal amount of teams would prefer bryant to duncan?

    minnesota is actually one i would change my mind on since pekovic is a legit center.

    They could play together sure.

    Do you dispute shooting guard is a much bigger weakness for the Hawks than power forward?

    No idea, probably more for Duncan because hes a big man and theres so many terrible teams out there.

    yes i do. center is their biggest weakness. duncan is a PF/Center and can play either effectively. in his prime he was a tremendous presence defensively and one of the top rebounders in the game.

    I don't see the point in the argument.

    If someone is that delusional to think Kobe is even close to Duncan they are beyond reproach.

    Duncan would be better on virtually every team because he's a much better player, dominates both ends, and because he has no ego and isn't a cancerous me-first player that requires an all time great manager of egos to even make him coachable enough to win on extraordinarily talented teams.


    The Bulls is the only team in the league I would rather have Kobe and that's even a stretch...that team likely wouldn't win a championship because Kobe is too selfish to play with Rose and needs a borderline 1A option to be effective when he jumpshoots his team out of games.

    Teams will always go for it since he's a skilled 7 footer, a healthy skilled 7 footer regardless of his late season/playoffs meltdown.

    As happy as Gortat seems in Washington, he's not thrilled with sharing the paint with Nene. Plus if he's an UFA, you can bet that he's going to get lots of offers.
