Different eras, you're no longer allowed to knock the wind out of a muthapuka coming off a screen. Minus the last 2 rounds of the playoffs, the game is overwhelmingly geared towards the offensive player.

Does that mean Steph wouldn't have been great in Rauf's era? No, Steph would still dominate but it would be different. Rauf would absolutely eat in today's era, does that mean he would be better than Steph? No.

I just think the game was much more physically bruising on the 6'4 and under player in the 90s than it is now and it's not even close.

Mahmoud was a beast but he was way more streaky as a shooter then Steph. In this day and age though he would be given more of the green light though cause he could score his ass off. But he ain't fukking with Steph.
MAHMOUD ABDUL-RAUF WAS A BETTER BASKETBALL PLAYER THAN STEPH CURRY!
