Re: Dennis Rodman: How good was he actually at his best?
[QUOTE=HoopsNY;14966498]But what are you basing it on? I'm trying to understand that much. Grant was a solid piece who could rebound, defend, had a good mid-range, and could deliver 15 PPG.
Kukoc was a good ball handler, give you similar points or more, but was terrible defensively, not a good rebounder, but was a better passer. His performance doesn't match [I]peak[/I] Grant (especially when peak Grant is probably '91-'96). And during the 3 peat, Kukoc was at best hit or miss in the playoffs. I'd argue Grant was a superior postseason performer to Kukoc.[/QUOTE]
Not sure if you've noticed, but none of that poster's claims have really been backed up by anything.
'Kukoc was way more crucial than Rodman!'
'How so?'
'Because!'
'Kukoc was a peak Horace Grant player'
'Not really ( gives several reasons why not)'
'Well I disagree!'

You're picking a lot of guys who were actual #2 options or the second best player on teams. Houston is one of them, so was LJ and Glen Robinson. Michael Finley was a #1 option and then #2 option once Dirk emerged.
The discussion is really about picking the best #3.

Again, why are you picking guys who were clearly the lead player or best player on a franchise? Kemp was for a time one of the best players in the league and a #1 option. Even on Seattle, it was debatable who the best player was.
