These 2012 NBA Playoffs have a lot of stories. Will LeBron or Durant get their first NBA Championship? Will the Spurs or Celtics add to their legacy? Will Doc Rivers and Erik Spoelstra return next year? These playoffs will answer so many questions. Here is one you may not have thought of though.
If Tim Duncan wins his 5th NBA Championship, should he be considered a better player than Kobe Bryant? On the surface, the answer for most people would be no. Let me give you some food for thought though. Basketball greatness is measured in championships and if Tim Duncan gets another ring this year he will be tied with Kobe for titles. Most people also consider Kobe Bryant the second best player ever at his position, behind Micheal Jordan. Those same people consider Tim Duncan the best ever at his position.
Without going into statistics or personal issues, shouldn’t those two things be enough to put Duncan over Kobe? It might be a moot point though. The Spurs still have to take care of business this season.
