Duncan vs. Garnett in an aging war. Who will break down first?

And, would you trade Kwame Kanter for either player?
 
I went with Garnett, mainly because Poppovich has shown he is absolutely not afraid to sit Duncan, and I haven't seen that attitude in Boston with KG. Plus KG has been around a couple more seasons so it stands to reason that he may utlimately break down sooner.

Boston just drafted 2 bigs though. Work those dudes in and suddenly KG only has to do his thing for 25 minutes.

Both players will be more respectable than Franklin's new schtick.
 
Its funny that neither guy might not make it to 40.

But the damn Mailman looked like he could have went until atleast 42-43.

39 years old and put up a 40 point game? Get out of here. 40 years old and still averaged 14/5 on a star studded Laker squad.

Malone should have came back to Utah after the Laker stint, could have taught Boozer some damn toughness.
 
I think they will both decline but "Mr. Fundamentals" will be able to better compensate for it. So I vote Garnett crashes and burns.

Agreed. But Garnett has also one weapon that will be always at elite level. His shooting. He's a hell of a shooter for a 7 footer.
 
So I guess it comes down to what do you want more from your C? Shooting or fundamentals?

Yes, kind of. But I hope Garnett to be crappy. I know Duncan can be a whiny bitch sometimes but Garnett is a whore all the time. And he's a coward who always wants to start a fight against poor and smaller opponents but never can buck up against the tough guys.

How about you actually watch a game instead of going off youtube videos.
 
Oh yeah, that must be it.

Im not standing up with the crowd calling Garnett a bitch, so that just clarifies that Im a homer.

Yes, just like, me calling Duncan a bitch and Garnett a whore, clarified that I was talking over youtube videos.
 
What you need to see though is Garnett pretty much has played preservative. He can still whip out an array of post moves, has that fade away, can still hang with the latter of PF/C with dunking, so he's still athletic. I think Garnett, if played right could go until 38-40. If these guys want to really be considered as the "greatest" true power forward, they should try and bang it out until that age.

Malone was playing what... 30+ minutes at 39
 
No I technically didn't, because I've never watched a youtube video especially about fights of Garnett. I talked based on my NBA watching experience.

If you say "hey you suck at understanding of what you watch" or "hey you're doing an injustice to Garnett". That's cool.

Indeed when you think, both bitch and whore are not good words and probably too much for both Garnett and Duncan. But you know this is a message board and it's very enjoying calling someone like that :) Hell, I even don't use any slang in my real life.

Anyway I'm not a Garnett hater but I believe he is not as good as Duncan is, fair-play and sportsmanship wise.

Agreed on this. Nevertheless they are both ones of the greatest big men who played the game ever. So actually they could retire as well and quit while they are at the top.

Anyway I hope they suck against us.

Gotta respect that.
