Great post and you make a great case. Also, those that rank Duncan ahead of Hakeem just because of championships need to look at the competition they played against. The league was pretty stacked during Olajuwon's prime, while I think the competition was fairly weak in '99, '05, and '07 when Duncan won. I think there were a lot of good teams in 2003 when the Spurs won. I was too young to watch and remember much of Hakeem's career, so I can't fairly compare the two, but it's just something to think about.
