They are the two premier forwards in the NBA of this generation -- San Antonio Spurs' Tim Duncan and Boston Celtics' Kevin Garnett. Both have won NBA titles, been selected to countless All-Star games, collected many individual awards and had their fair share of battles on the court. Perhaps the biggest on-the-court battle between TD and KG happened when Garnett was playing in Minnesota and decided to whack Duncan's head (while TD wasn't looking) during a fight between the two teams.
