Who is better in three categories? Paul George or Damian Lillard? (alien.top)

I’ve got three categories up for discussion; who has got a better (1) two year consecutive season peak, (2) overall skill/talent, and (3) overall career/accomplishment so far.

Also, I want to hear your ideas why Lillard was named top 75 while guys like Paul George hasn’t. Atm I aside from being political I don’t see any reason why Lillard deserves top 75 while George doesn’t. Or perhaps Lillard’s leadership quality trumps George elite two-way value. Lillard was also a bit more consistent than PG and has better career statline. Tho PG suffered a great deal of injuries and was toe to toe with lebron before injuries. Kindly illuminate me please. Thanks! Fan of both btw.

You are kinda looking at both the wrong years and you are only looking at scoring. Dame never had an MVP case simply because he never led a team good enough to even win a MVP...PG did.

Also PG is one of the best wing defenders of the past decade together with arguably one of the best 2 way players.

The only reason it's even close is because of his injury, after which honestly I wasn't even sure if he'd ever play again.
