Dude was essentially a 7'1" Chris Bosh skill wise, in JaVale McGee's body, with Noah's IQ.
Prime KG or Prime Drob?

Exactly!
Players like Grant Hill and Antonio McDyess and Robinson are only remembered from their post injury years. Damn shame.
I bet a lot of these clones would take Joe Johnson over prime Grant Hill.

I guess kids of today, only remembering this version of KG, will assume Chris Bosh was the superior player in 15 years.

If I ever heard someone say this out their mouth, I'd sit 'em down to watch Grant in his prime. The boy was COLD.
In their primes D-Rob was a better scorer while KG being a better offensive rebounder and passer. KG developed his killer mentality later in career while once Tim Duncan came over to the spurs he quickly became that guy. As you seen in the 08 run KG was arguably the best player on that team.
KG has more skills, but D-Rob is a better athlete.
individually d-rob was a more dominant player, if we look at the primes D-Rob should take this but not by a lot, if rating careers and all that then give me KG over D-Rob.
Both were getting abused by the competition of the western teams, neither of them had a special team, D-Rob had Rodman for a few seasons, Elliot, meanwhille KG had nothing until like 2003, guys like Terrell Brandon were not the same.

Another poster picking KG and using the playoffs as his rationale?
Playoffs are the best time to judge a player IMO
People should not use couple of series as the argument to downgrade robinson, the only legit argument should be that his stats used to decrease in the playoffs pretty big, but those series like against hakeem I mean he punked shaq's ass too, if you put duncan against hakeem he would get beaten pretty badly too. That shyt was unstoppable.
No matter how you look at it D-Rob was the 3rd best C of the 90s behind Hakeem and Shaq

In a big game, give me Rik Smits

I'm not taking issue with that. I am taking issue with using the playoffs in support of KG as if he has a long illustrious history of playoff dominance. You probably don't wanna bring the playoffs up in support of either guy if we are being real.

So we givin nikkas props for frontin now?
In competition, it's probably better to front than to do nothing and ooze softness.You might actually be able to fool somebody
I'm still laughing at the dude @VMR bringing up Terry Cummings' 22/8 season
What's next? Cedric Ceballos was a great player? and so was Charles Smith?

So in other words you just like KG more.
That is a far more sound argument than the bolded.
