@omarcorral8093 kobe had better teams and better luck with injuries, tho he still went through a lot. Tim Duncan almost went to Orlando cause he wanted to play with TMac and Grant Hill. He didn't and the team seemed like it was missing a few pieces anyway. And with Hill getting injured early, TMac had no choice but to be a #1 option quickly. He was insanely talented and a better offensive player than prime Kobe but only slightly, and while he was a good shot blocker and decent off ball player he was no where near the on ball defender Kobe was. I don't think anybody else could get that intense and locked in. TMac in Toronto was an elite defender up to PG13 level but no one is better at the guard level at defense than without being a freak of nature like MJ or Wilt
0:42 tremendous basketball IQ by t-mac. Only a true superstar could sense the court like that.
0:41, been doubled up by Garnett, fake the pass, the guard bought it and open the space. Genius!
great times， one man a team no 3 pointers
no dislikes... t-mac one of the greatest
Those injuries, dame!
Kg certified???
KG wanting to guard TMac is more impressive. Most of TMac points came off of picks
Jeff Van Grundy on TNT???
Prime tmac is better than kobe
how many rings?
