    Bosh is a personal favorite of mine. He grabs boards, scores points, and shares the ball and its only his third year. The whole package.

    Have you seen Duncan play these days. Hes not his old MVP self. Hes not as dominant anymore.

    Are you kidding me? He's arguably the MVP of the league this year, you can make a very strong case for him. He's having the best season out of all power forwards. He has the Clippers in the playoff hunt, how is he not a superstar?

    <font color="red">Elton Brand Per 40 Averages</font>
    25.4 PPG, 10.1 RPG, 2.83 APG, 1 SPG, and 2.7 BPG

    <font color="red">Tim Duncan Per 40 Average</font>
    21.4 PPG, 12.7 RPG, 3.75 APG, .95 SPG, 2.2 BPG

    Elton Brand averages more points, steals, and blocks per game, while only trailing in assists by .92 a game, and rebounds by 2.6 a game.

    Their True Scoring Percentage Comparisons:
    Elton Brand TS%: 57%
    Tim Duncan TS%: 51%

    Their efficiency FG% Comparisons:
    Elton Brand eFG%: 53%
    Tim Duncan eFG%: 49%

    As you can see, Elton Brand betters Tim Duncan in statistical categories 5-2. Elton Brand is also more valuable to his team. The Spurs, without Duncan, still have Manu, Finley, and Parker, who is arguably their MVP this season.

    The Clippers without Brand have Cassell, Kaman, and Maggette, who has been injured a lot this year.

    To call Tim Duncan a superstar, but not Brand, is disrespectful and just proves even more that Brand doesn't get the respect he deserves.

    It's hard to exactly find out where Shaq fits. His production has vastly declined and has been inconsistent with his scoring. Though he is a huge difference maker with his presence and ability to draw attraction. He can still put it down and score almost at will, but he's not as superior to the ones listed above when it comes to individual production.
