He played in a better era.


Because of the style of play of that era. His style wouldn't work in this era. He's nowhere near the player Curry Jr is or the two way player Klay was before injuries. That means you are saying Zeke alone was essentially better than Curry and Klay. It's debatable that he was better than Curry.

Curry is the best of the four. Neither Thomas nor Dumars could guard Steph. Assume you’d matchup Dumars on him as he’s the better defender and Thomas is giving away 5 or 6 inches on Klay.



No. Thomas is easily the best of the four and Dumars is the best defender.


With 80's rules.


That's what I said in my original post. The games are too different to make a really good comparison.

I'm a Thomas hater, but he would be an even better player in this NBA. Of course, he would need to develop a 3 point shot.

Without 80's rules he'd still be 2nd best behind Klay. And thats debatable. Have you ever seen Luka or Steph try and guard someone? Good night :lol: :lol:

Oh, I know Steph can't guard a chair.
