I think someone could take Duncan with the 1st overall pick, and be able to defend it reasonably well.   Duncan is way, way, way better than KG. Duncan has had a good supporting cast, but never a great one. He's never had talent surrounding him like, say, the Suns do, or the Mavs. Ginobli and Parker are nice players, but I've ever seen either of them take over a game. Maybe parts of a game, but neither guy really has the talent to play a "There's no f-ing way we're losing this game" game. Duncan is like Kidd in that he makes everyone around him better, and that's why both of those players will be underrated long after they retire.</p>
I'm shocked that **** ***leavy is still on the board.</p>
