Weren’t you the guy who said Steph wasn’t top 10 all time if he lost this game lmao

Duncan is a defensive all-timer but people give him way too much credit for the Spurs offensive success. Their offense took off when their offense starting featuring more Ginobili and Parker, when Duncan was the lead guy their offenses were actually pretty average.

Players like David Robinson, and Garnett get so much criticism for their offensive limitations but Duncan never seems to be viewed the same way. I think his outside shooting percentages, lack of rim pressure, and limited playmaking makes him a much more flawed offensive player than people would think.

The graph at the end of this video does a good job illustrating this point, the spurs outscored teams by around 9 points per 100 with Ginobili and no Duncan, with no Ginobili, and Duncan on the court they were outscored by around 3 points per 100 from 2004-2008. Ginobili deserves way more credit for the Spurs success.

Why even bring up Jokic? Even if you think his peak is better you can still make a good argument for Steph.
