    Vince's peak was also more derailed by injuries than TMac's. Vince peaked in his 3rd season. Atleast we got to see TMac play closer to his theoretical peak even if it was wasted on those WOAT Orlando teams.

    I expect those names to pop up a lot. I added a bunch just for the sake of it. Do you guys consider Tracy McGrady a SG or SF ?
    Ginobili in no way shape or form belongs on that list ... and I consider McGrady a SF

    Agree with Carter better career, Tmac higher peak, though I think Vince's injury rep during his prime is a bit overblown. He ws injured between 2002 and 2003 before he left Toronto, but he was playing no less that 73 games between 2004 and 2011, with a few 80 game seasons thrown in.

Prime Drexler was putting up 27/8/6/3 on 50%. Drexler twice brought a team to the finals as a first option and won a title as an all-star second option. I don't think Iverson has any case over Drexler honestly.

    The bolded is factually correct but c'mon.

    In the 1967 playoffs:

    Greer: 28/6/5 on 43%
    Wilt: 22/29/9 on 58%

    The gap between Wilt and Greer is >>> the gap between Hakeem and Drexler.

    The point Hal Greer was more dominant player than Drexler.

    No he wasn't.

    Regular season:

    Drexler: 20/6/6 on 47%
    Greer: 19/5/4 on 45%

    Playoffs:

    Drexler: 20/7/6 on 45%
    Greer: 20/6/4 on 43%

    Clyde is more efficient, but you have to remember that the Blazers were a fast break team, while AI spent the majority of his prime on slow paced/half court teams with little to no outside shooting.

    As for defense, Clyde is a better man-defender, but AI was the more impactful defender due to his outstanding help defense.

    Clyde is the better passer and rebounder though.
