Rik Smit or Rudy Goerbert?

Prime vs Prime who would you rather have on your team?

Easily Rik Smits

Smits if I knew I could play him big minutes and he would stay healthy. But since I don’t, I would take Rudy. And of course, both were more suited to the time they played. You don’t want Rik Switching guards and you don’t want Rudy guarding most of those physical bigs who Rik gave a hard time. As usual, I will say, there is no more reason to assume players are playing these comparisons today than any other time. Just as straight up players, I would take Smits. He was out there playing Ewing to a stand still. But the difference isn’t enough to offset that he would only play 25 minutes.

Rik Smits was coordinated but slow depite having quick moves in the post and he didnt have the stamina to play big minutes but I would still take him with the old rules.

Smits in the 90s. Rudy, today, and by a wider margin.

I'll go with the guy who's at least been to the finals once.

Smits was insanely skilled scoring the ball the problem is that he didnt have the body to keep up with it.

And even at his height, was never really considered a shot blocker

Not much of a rebounder. Not known much for D either if memory serves. The Davis boys did the dirty work.

More of a poor man's Yao. Pretty limited. Could shoot

Funny how a poor mans Yao could help lead his team deep in the playoffs while the actual Yao was always losing in the first round. The only time he got past round one he lasted 3 games before getting injured and the team performed better without him.
