I'll take the man who dropped 36-19 in game 7 of the NBA Finals.

Too bad it was before my time, was the highlight of the Knicks franchise lol

GOAT wise, Clyde has the edge. Peak wise, I call it a draw. They are so similar to each other that it's crazy.

Walt frazier of course plus lebronna would never have the balls to do what frazier did in the 1970 finals:no:

Career and accolade-wise I would have to side with Walt however if I were starting a team I would pick Payton over Frazier. Payton has a slightly better peak in my opinion and an objectively better longevity. I also believe that his offense and overall impact on the game is at a higher level. If you look at MVP award shares, Payton was in the top ten for eight seasons compared to Walt with three. And again if you look at VORP and win shares they are both pretty similar except Payton was relevant for longer.
