mchale was awesome but the three bise mentioned, karl malone, charles barkley, elgin baylor (i think he was a 4?), chris webber, bob pettit, elvin hayes i mean there's some guys, brow & LMA & bosh & blake & love all probably could get there in time

yeah some of these are fair but mchale is still prob top 10 for the moment, he made 6 all-defensive teams and shot over 60% as a forward in his prime, i don't see bosh/blake/love/lma accomplishing anything like that

duncan, barkley, malone all higher in the book
defense is a good point. i def think he's a top 10 pf, just "best all-time" seemed like uh karl malone will fight u jon barry

duncan is a center can we never discuss this again thank you
― lag∞n, Thursday, 12 March 2015 03:53 (nine years ago) link
also mchale was a sixth man which always seems to undercut the arg

he just didnt like to start games for some weird reason, he played starters minutes finished games etc was totally a starter except didnt like actually start the games instead wld be inserted at the first whistle

checking simmons bball pyramid thing he has it as duncan > pettit > malone > barkley > garnett > mchale > nowitzki > hayes > rodman > webber
― Clay, Thursday, 12 March 2015 03:56 (nine years ago) link
duncan is a center this drives me more crazy than it shd, like has anyone ever watched him play basketball, if the spurs for fun listed him as a point guard wld ppl say he was a point guard, prob
― lag∞n, Thursday, 12 March 2015 03:57 (nine years ago) link
Melvin Hunt might keep this job

Is Mchale a center too?
no

Had mchale never broken his foot he could very well have been the greatest.

How is duncan more centery than mchale
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, March 11, 2015 11:58 PM (Yesterday)
hard to tell if it's anything specific he's bringing or if it's just addition by subtraction, but i like it
― k3vin k., Thursday, 12 March 2015 04:01 (nine years ago) link
le goon...peak/mvp-winning duncan was a pf bc d-rob was C. after robinson retires, duncan is a C. so i agree with you.
btw in my mind, i only rank kareem, wilt, billy russ, and olajuwon ahead of duncan in all time centers.

duncan is generally the biggest guy on his team plays closest to the basket and guards the other teams center, mchale was not
― lag∞n, Thursday, 12 March 2015 04:03 (nine years ago) link
I thought they should have just promoted Hunt when they fired Karl, he did a great job

Rasho was the center after D Rob.

wau spurs fan putting hakeem ahead of duncan, you must just be being modest

Duncan was not bigger than d rob, Rasho, about the same size as Tiago.
rasho is not a real person, shut up with that argument

yeah i mean calling him a pf an obvs artifact of coming into the league on a team that already had a center but his natural position is clearly center
― lag∞n, Thursday, 12 March 2015 04:04 (nine years ago) link
look, he's listed as a pf/c, so he's both
One of the most underrated players of all time

timmys a center and i demand he be removed from the all time pf convo

get outta here, as soon as the spurs traded malik rose for nazr mohammed, his ass rode the pine and then he flamed out of the league

Wrong, he was an elite defender for a spurs team that won a title. No one seemed to care or notice that he was blocking all those shots but it won games.
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 12 March 2015 04:09 (nine years ago) link
any fanbase hostile to the rockets is a fine and noble fanbase imo

big homie rasho lost his starting job to an isaiah thomas traded journeyman. that team had GOAT manu, peak duncan, over-the-yips parker, bob horry, and you wanna talk to me about rasho's ok defense i just wanna buy you a drink of something you wont like but will be too polite to say anything about thats how mad i am at you

Why do you hate the guy who was the starting center for some of your franchise's best teams? He was good.

Anyway, Rasho was the starting center on the spurs for 3 years, he didn't guard 4s, he was as big or bigger than Duncan, still waiting to hear about mchale's superior power forwardness
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 12 March 2015 04:15 (nine years ago) link
meanwhile, this game is pretty great

the ONE champ squad he was on, he avg'd less than 10 minutes a game. he scored a total of 10 points in 15 games. ARMSTRONG. SWEATER GOD. are we on the same planet? what color did you see on that dress, come on
