They are a couple of stiffs. Ginobili started out hot but just about lost his job to Hedu Turkolu of all people. Cassell is better at every aspect of the game that Tony Parker. I lost any faith I ever had in Parker when he failed so miserably in the playoffs last year, and the worst NBA Finals in recent history.

Then why doesn't he? Garnett scores and rebounds more than Duncan right now, and he will for the rest of the year. Any advantage Duncan gives you is lost because Kevin Garnett is the only player of his position as good/better than him. Duncan has the huge advantage against most pF's, but not Garnett. In the same way Duncan negates Garnett, but then add Spre, Sam, Trent, Hassell, Wally, Hudson etc and the Wolves have the better team. Simply said.

The Spurs do not have a good offense, don't kid yourself and say that. Duncan, yes. Rasho, sometimes. The rest, meh. San Antonio is a bunch of veteran role players who play defense. The Timberwolves play the best zone defense in the league. Put a really good offense against the best defense, ok, then put a decent offense against another really good defense, and like we have already seen this year, the Timberwolves win.

Michael Jordan didn't win a championship until his 7th year into the league, when he finally got a good team around him. Kevin Garnett won't win his first championship until his 9th year because he now has a good team around him.
