However, he did choke in the playoffs. I'd still take Robinson over Duncan though.

Robinson sucked in the play-offs. Really. Dude was like a top 5 regular season player, was a better defender than TD, but his record is tarnished by his inability to perform at the same level in the plays.

03' Duncan is superior.

So you say this...

Timmy D is pretty elite imo. For me, he is like 6/7.

And then this...

Robinson is better than Duncan.




Surely you dont have The Admiral in your top 6'ish of all time?

Robinson's 95 (6th season), Duncans 03 (6th season)


Play offs, Duncan went into beast mode. Single season, Robinson will always be the better player

Jordan never would of won as many rings without Pippen.

Therefore if Jordan never had Pippen we would not consider Jordan to be the best of all time.

28.4 playoff PER compared to Robinson's 22.6. Damn man.

Pippen isnt top 50 all-time, MJ made him what he was... Lebron needed Dwyane Wade, Bosh Spice and one of the greatest shooters ever, Ray Allen just to get a ring.

Jordan would have still won 6 rings with Tony Ronaldson as his side kick :P

Robinson over Duncan :o Please!

Not the second best but where is the Kobe love?

Barkley deserves a mention! Abdul Jabbar was a legend, James pretty much is second, Magic right up there Bird too

But surely Chamberlain and Russell top 5? Wilt probably gets my vote! in five years probably James will be king!

if this was Best NBA players to ever live who aren't Jordan, Olajuwon, Russel, Shaq, Bird, Kareem, Duncan, Magic, Wilt, Lebron I would start thinking about him.
