        Duncan for me. Garnett has an awesome skillset but I've always felt Duncan was a better overall player.

            I would take Duncan because he got the job done in the clutch. Very focused player. I think Garnett was more emotional and more of a headcase (but still a great player). I remember one playoff series where Duncan's Spurs played Garnett's T-wolves, and Duncan dominated the series. Towards the end Garnett resorted to hitting Duncan in the head and trash talking him every play...which I thought was pathetic.

              No shit neither are in their primes right now. Wow.

              I'm laughing my ass off that you have Garnett "way over" Duncan comparing primes when in Duncan's prime he was winning 2 MVP's and some championships, when Garnett won his MVP he lost in the conference finals.

              Not to mention Duncan is seen as the greatest power forward of all time and you have Garnett ranked" way over him" in their respective prime. It's hilarious.

              I could see taking Garnett by a hair over Duncan in their respective primes....maybe...but saying Garnett "way over" Duncan is so idiotic it's hilarious.

                and look at the teams that duncan had to play with at those times. KG aint had a team in minnesota to win any decent respectable series with. And duncan as the greatest power forward ever? tell me where u see that and ill believe you

                    Garnett by a hair.

                    He never really had the players around him like Duncan did/has. Duncan's title teams were loaded.

                      So what? You ever think that the reason those Spurs teams were so great is because of Duncan in the post? Duncan made those teams great and as Senser pointed out when they matched up Duncan took KG to school.

                      Ummm....most anywhere you look and most basketball experts agree that Duncan, if he isn't the greatest PF ever, is at the very least in the discussion for it.

                      Do you even watch basketball. Honest question.

                        words out of my mouth.

                        Garnett is great for selling tickets and without a doubt, extremely talented and a first ballot hall of famer, but Duncan edges him out.

                        I don't think many people are basing their decisions on the rings comparison. :headache:

                          My personal opinion would be KG, as of course he's probably the popular pick. But I mean, both players are probably Top 5/10 at the position in my opinion. I think if KG would have been in a Spurs type system with great players he could have won more championships.

                            Duncan is far better in the sense of a traditional back-to-the-basket big, but Garnett's all-around game and versatility make him as great as well. However, Duncan in my opinion is the greater player, because his game was more condusive to winning basketball. I've seen Duncan take over BIG games, but never really saw that from KG. Duncan's accomplishments are on par with the games greats and this is why he's the greatest PF off all-time.

                              I'm all out of thanks.

                              And not because I agree with you, but it's fact.
