ok...prime Robertson or prime Manu

Robertson's game was solid all around. Premiere defender, strong rebounder for a 2, good scorer. I don't think he had any glaring weakness.

Other than the weakness he was a fucking criminal.

Yeah. I hate even acknowledging him now. I can't believe how low he went. He was a hell of a player but that shit he got in to...smh.

Criminality aside, I saw both play and Manu is 100x better and it's not even close. Yeah, maybe Robertson was a better defender in his prime than Manu, but even that is subject to debate because Manu was a great defender in his younger years. But other than that, Manu wins hands down in scoring, shooting, passing, and overall basketball intelligence. To be honest, Robertson was mostly putting up average stats on poor teams. Man, the Spurs sucked when he played for us.

Would Robertson have had 8 in the Finals?

100x???

Manu was a better scorer and passer but had more turnovers. Robertson was clearly a better defender and rebounder.

Robertson was an average player on a bad team. He put up stats, but not great ones. And Manu may have more turnovers, but that's only BC he was a great playmaker, so he had the ball in his hands more often. PG types have more TOs than non ball handling guards and bigs. Manu has been way more relevant in the NBA.

LOL at "average". Robertson was a multi-year allstar and all defensive team, NBA defensive player of the year, and NBA steal leader for several years.
Manu's relevance in the NBA is defined by the Spurs dynasty. Put him on a bad team and he'd be just as forgotten.
