Well just throwing this out there, wilt chamberlain said hes had sex with 20,000 women, so I guess he is the nba's greatest "scorer"

holy [expletive] this is stupid. I am just waiting for someone to hit a child and then say "I thought it was just a speed bump."

Magic Johnson. Simply put he revolutionized the PG position and there probably won't be another player like him in a very, very long time.

Haha...it goes with the territory of being a jumpshooter compared to low post player. But Duncan is not an extremely efficient post-scorer, and despite Dirk being a "miss 25% of the time" he only shoots about 3-4% worse than a prime Duncan, while shooting about 20% better from the FT line and being a much better clutch performer (both on last second shots and overall 4th quarter performance). I love Duncan, and he is one of the greatest post players in NBA history. But he couldn't score at the same volume Dirk can and isn't much more efficient. It's like saying Duncan is a better scorer than Kobe. He simply isn't. Umm...no. Prime Shaq averaged about 7PPG more than prime Duncan on much better FG%. Period. How about instead of posting a regular season scoring explosion, find me 1 game in Kobe's NBA Finals history in which he played better than Duncan did in either Game 1 or Game 6 of the 2003 Finals... Game 1: 32pts/20reb/6ast/7blk/3stl/11-17 shooting Game 6: 21pts/20reb/10ast/8blk/9-19 shooting

I hate Cats.

Unfortunate timing on that hit. Those shots to the gut are the worst.

Well, you have to see how I ranked them- It was by who, for one season, I'd build my franchise around. And historically speaking dominant big men are the easiest to build around. When Tim Duncan was in his prime he could drop 22-25PPG on solid efficiency, clean the glass with 12+ boards per game, be able to dish out a 3.5-4APG, block nearly 3 shots per game, and provide solid consistency. The only time there was ever a big discrepency in his play was when it was elevated in the playoffs. His 2003 post-season run remains legendary and one of the most impressive I have ever witnessed. His stat line in that post-season... 2003 post-season: 24.7PPG, 15.4RPG, 5.3APG, 3.3BPG, 52.9% FG In that post-season, he knocked off the Lakers who were back-to-back-to-back defending world champs. And he did it with Tony Parker in his 2nd season, Manu Ginobili in his rookie season, a very young Stephen Jackson, and a very old David Robinson who retired after they won Game 6 of the 2003 Finals. It was a solid team, but quite probably their weakest of all their championship teams. They did it behind Duncan's brilliance when he was in his absolute prime. As for what RD said about the difference between Kobe/TD's offense and defense, I whole-heartedly disagree. Kobe is a great perimeter defender, but he's not the game-changer that a guy like Scottie Pippen was, and the great perimeter defender NEVER makes the kind of defensive impact a great interior defender does. Besides being an elite shot-blocker Duncan was amazing at post-up defense (gave prime Shaq more fits than anyone, including Hakeem, Mutombo, etc..), could make crisp rotations to cut-off perimeter players trying to drive to the rim, and he was one of the best at contesting all shots around the rim. Kobe can only really affect his man on defense, whereas Duncan can disrupt an entire offense. And offensively, a prime Duncan could put up points in the regular and post-season, and was a very good passer out of the post so the offense was routinely ran through him.
