Tim Duncan. I might could settle for Shaq or Garnett if Duncan weren't available. ------------------ Looking for next year's Dan Langhi? Draftsource.net Vote in the 64 player 1 on 1 NBA Tournament!

Darius Miles. or spudd webb. dennis rodman maybe too. ------------------ "Win the game, baby!" -Rudy T in the fourth quarter of game 4 of the 1995 NBA Finals
Shaq no question would make us the most succssful,but the best fit would be garnett. I know duncan has to be concidered but i dont like him at all. FORTSON FOR POWER FORWARD!!! ------------------
Is it possible for someone to make us the most successful and not be the best fit? In which case, would it matter? ------------------ Just shut up and post
I give an edge to KG over Duncan. The stats are close, but I think KG is a better passer (not just out of the post like Duncan). KG is like Magic and Bird - he makes everyone around him better. If you're open , you will get the ball. I do NOT think Shaq would work as well because he needs to have the ball to be effective. KG gets his points in the flow of the game (much like Shandon). It is still a team game and Garnet is a team player. ------------------ GATER
I would take Duncan over KG on the Rockets. KG may be a slightly better passer and ball handler, but overall I would rather have Duncan. The reason you only see Duncan pass out of the post is because he is a post player, where as KG plays from the post and outside. Duncan IMO has better post skills than KG, and also can rebound the ball better. Like you said, the stats are close, but I think Duncan has better moves down low and also a better touch. He is also more physical and also has a much easier time with the big players in the league such as Alonzo Mourning due to his frame. I agree KG and Duncan are both unbelievably good, and I'd be happy with either , but I'd rather have Duncan if I were the Rockets or almost any other team. I agree with you on Shaq. ------------------ Looking for next year's Dan Langhi? Draftsource.net Vote in the 64 player 1 on 1 NBA Tournament!
