It's pretty simple. If you're a causal "hesi pull up, crossover" type of fan, Duncan is "boring". If you appreciate all of the facets of the game such as solid fundamentals, post moves, etc. then you liked watching Duncan. Duncan is my third favorite player all time, and I love flash as much as the next guy.

As far as Garnett is concerned, Duncan had a more solid and reliable post game which is why he was the better player, and easier to build a championship squad around.

Duncan had all that too. His play style changed up after his knee injuries.

Young TD had a bag

People forget he missed the 2000 playoffs because of his knee when he wanted to play but Pop saved him for the future and shut him down for the remainder of the season right before the playoffs.

We was gonna beat the Lakers in the 2000 playoffs too :mjcry:

It had nothing to do with storylines or social media. They were a slow paced defensive team who’s best player wasn’t putting up highlights. And no they weren’t one of the first to start raining 3’s.

I don’t understand why y’all come on here and talk about shyt you don’t know about
Orlando and Phoenix were the first three heavy modern offenses in the modern day... Old school you can go back to like Don Nelson GS days for someone who tried it first.

KG was quicker with better athletic 📦. Duncan was more reliable down the stretch of games. KG had a knock against him for that early in his career

Did he ever shake that tho? Pierce and Allen were the closer on that Boston team from what I remember.

If that's incorrect feel free to correct me and refresh my memory on it

I agree as well but he was able to redeem himself with the ring in Boston....by proxy I guess.
People like to bring us his supporting cast, but at one point the Twolves had Allstars (Wally)and former Allstars(Cassel, Sprewell) caliber and he still wasn't able to do much.
