Similar size, build and athleticism. Robinson was significantly more skilled. He had some post moves and had a way better shot mechanics. Greek definitely plays with more aggression and passion though. It's a tough call tbh. The question is is robinsons higher skill level greater than greeks motor and aggression. I probably go with greek on this but not confidently.

No, Robinson didn't have the same fire as Giannis.

Robinson is one of the top 10 talented players ever, probably closer to 5 if you really break it down but he didn't have the fire burning in the belly. He would tell you himself, in fact I believe he has said that on many occasions.

Robinson was a better shooter but not as dynamic taking it to the basket. Giannis is more creative and has more dog in him. DRob would be great now though no doubt.

A better Anthony Davis maybe?

I don't recall Admiral being the ball handler that Giannis is

Robinson didn't have the competitiveness required to be the best player on a championship team. He only started winning when Duncan came on. Giannis has proved he can lead a team to a title as the best player.

No, he wasn't as versatile as Giannis.

He'd just be himself but he'd definitely be unguardable in this era

Freak is more wirey and has a better handle. Dave had the better faceup and shooting. It would be close.

Robinson put him on these Bucks they still win with his points Kevin Garnett also wins a ring this year they do what Guannis did but even better probably 21 rebounds 30 points and 10 assist easily against the teams Milwaukee went throw Phoenix gets swept, Kevin Garnett goes off against then outside jumpers all day monster boards.

Robinson was 7 ft 1 Giannis is 5 ft 11 you do the math, Robinson could post hit jumpers and dribble he's better then Giannis everywhere.

Robinson scores easily hitting jumpers grabbing boards and even guarding Durant when he tries to enter the paint and on the outside Durant would have trouble shooting over Robinson and inside scoring Durant would need screens set for him and he's scoring on the switches, Robinson was a beast.

Robinson was quicker then the Greek Freak having cat like quickness and more explosive also bigger he's dominating every team Milwaukee went through even better then Giannis because he's bigger and better at everything.

Anybody who says different is wrong.

I think Giannis' game wouldn't hold up as well in the same era Robinson played in tbh

He played in a light and soft era as well, unlike yanni.
