I dont think it hurts either guys legacy. Both LeBron and Duncan have alot to gain. Duncan, probably, is the best PF to play the game, but he cements his status on the all time starting 5 with a win in this series. Homie is right, LeBron still has 8 to 10 yrs left, but how many shots do you get at a 3-peat? Jordan did it twice... Im sorry if you want to be compared to Jordan, you have to do what Jordan did. Jordan 3-peated twice... so LeBron, I think youve proven it goes 1. Jordan 2. LeBron 3. Everyone else, but you gotta do what Jordan did and even more if you want to be considered the best ever. I think if LeBron 3 peats once in his career, and wins 7 titles... you get my vote as the best ever. If you win 7 titles and never 3peat? Thats a tough question? 3 peating is part of the conversation when we are talking about the greatest to ever lace up a pair of sneakers
