Blake > Vince is arguable though, especially when you look at individual achievements. Both were constant 1st/2nd round exits as the no.1 option. Blake made 5 All NBA teams, while Vince made 2. Blake finished 3rd in MVP voting, while the highest Vince ever finished was 10th. I'm not saying it's a surefire thing, because of the different eras, opponents, position availabilty etc, but it's definitely arguable.

If you just wanna compare playoff matchups, I think you have to consider their previous matchups too. Duncan was far better in 99' and 03', for example. Kobe was better in 01' and 08'. 02' and 04' are a bit more debatable.
It used to be Redick. Everyone adds another 'D'
What talent? His defense is full of "names" who aren't performing
Honestly I think the Hall of Fame line is gonna be called the "Rivers Line" for a long time. If you had a better career than Rivers, you're in the HOF. Literally all Rivers needed was maybe an All Pro selection and/or a SB win and he makes it in. There's no debate on his individual skill. I think Eli gets in on how impactful he was in the playoffs and the fact that he took down the Patriots twice. Ben is a slightly worse Rivers, with 2 SBs so he gets in from a career perspective. Ryan might be on par with Rivers, but he does have an SB appearance, MVP and an All Pro selection. So I think he gets in, but not so soon.
Yeah should've just said 2nd best
These are easily the worst City editions we've had since it's inception in 2018. Like usually there are a few bad apples but these ones are 90% bad. Even the ones that look decent, have almost zero creativity. Extremely disappointed with ours especially. Just stick with the light blue and orange man c'mon.
Surprising that Antoine Walker and Jerry Stackhouse isn't on here
Jimmer was always bad. Going to Sac didn't help, but he was still bad. He had every opportunity to adapt to the NBA but he didn't do it. His return in Phoenix all but confirmed that
I've heard the exact same thing said about TMac over the years. I don't know whether it's true or not, and the only ones who can actually answer that is themselves. I will say though, when it comes to pure talent, TMac and Vince are easily up there for players who didn't live up to their potential, which is pretty crazy considering how good their careers were.

In terms of individual ability and potential, yeah I agree. But in terms of actually getting the results, I don't think so.
