Yeah, Troy Aikman was good too!? He had a laundry list of accolades too....


#14 in scoring cannot be a goat.period.
Rebounds and blocks is a farce because you know the old timers dominated those numbers. Wilt? Bill?

Your basketball IQ must be pretty low.
Wilt and Russell played in a different era and different positions
All you care about is scoring, dirk only scores, jimmer only scores.

You gotta watch more of the game.


Again what’s Duncan’s greatness got to do with jimmer not being good enough to cut it on an nba team?

You keep coming back to the Jimmer thread for some reason, I just have to remind you Duncan was a fair to middling scorer in the NBA. I know what Jimmer is.....not in the NBA, but still an unusually adept scoring machine.

So cute
Yeah top 15 ALL TIME in scoring makes him “fair to middling” lmao what ever helps you sleep at night.

Yeah jimmer can score, on nobodies and has beens in China, but he can’t break a rotation in the nba or stick past a 10 day contract on terrible teams like the Knicks.
Maybe because there’s more to the game than scoring a few points.

Good stuff.

Duncan was a good scorer, not goat level though....

You gotta get scoring out of your head. There’s a LOT more to the game than scoring. What dirk or jimmer do in scoring, Duncan did in almost every other category as well or better.

Done

I agree, that's why he's in the CBA, but Duncan still isn't the goat at ANY category.

56 points tonight, leading the CBA at 41.7 pts/game

And still can’t defend, pass, rebound, block, steal.... etc

No wonder he can’t make it in the nba
