@@justsayin669 I think they are on a equal level considering the offense, but on defense KG had the edge. His lone MVP season is the most dominant performance of a PF in NBA history (regular season, of course). But, unlike Duncan, KG wasn't able to sustain this crazy level of play for long. Still a star when he arrived in Boston, but those crazy prime years were gone.
@justsayin6693 жыл бұрын
@@RRRRRRRRR33 They are both right there with eachother on offense and defense. KG may have had a slight defensive advantage if any, but they are both top 5 all time defenders. Both of their primes were virtually the same length too, about 10 years. I would say Duncan's prime was 1997-98 through 2006-07 and I would say KG's prime was from at least 1998-99 through 2007-08. Duncan may have been at all star caliber for 1 or 2 more years than KG was, but that's about it.
