Matchups:
Paul vs Thomas: Thomas has better numbers, but Paul is much more efficient.
Wade vs. Gervin: Both are highly efficient wing scorers. I'm giving Wade a significant edge though because he has lead his team to a Championship and is the much better defender.
Sloan vs Carmello: Carmello wins this one pretty easily, Sloan is no slouch though. Very physical defender, made 4 first team defensive squads and 2 second team defensive teams.
PF: M.Malone vs. Dirk: This is the 00's Dirk, so lets not forget he is still considered soft and a choker. Though Dirk's dynamic scorer repetoire is valuable, Malone is still a 2x MVP during the 80's, made a 1st and 2nd team defensive squad, and won the Finals MVP in his championship year in 83'. Edge Malone.
C: Robinson vs. Ewing: Two 1st overall pick Centers. Robinson was an athletic freak/monster. 1 DPOY, 1 MVP, 1 Championship, 8 Defensive teams (four 1st, four 2nd), 4 all NBA 1st teams, 2 2nd teams. Ewing had the more consistent career offensively, but Robinson was definitely better on defensive and more dominant offensively.
BENCH MATCHUP:
My bench pwns his bench so hard its not even funny. My one bench negative is no true backup PG, and I would give him a slight edge for Horny over Malone, but my bench blows him away after that.
