Best 3&D SG or best 3&D player?

I think peak Kawhi is significantly better than peak Klay in every way except maybe pure shooting

I considered him a PG

For pure shooting I'd rate him 2nd behind Curry

After seeing some other comments, I think I'd rate him around 12-13th, behind Dumars and tied with Booker (although I think Booker will finish his career ahead of Klay)

VC carried his team pretty hard, scored a ton, and had almost twice as long of a career as Dumars

I'd rate VC and Dumars pretty similarly, probably a bit above Klay

TMac was legitimately one of the top 5 best players in the league for a while, which is no small feat

Not a bad list, I'd disagree with Miller and Ginobili's placement but otherwise I'd agree (McGrady over Carter as well perhaps)

Hardaway was a PG I counted Iverson as a PG as well (arguable)

I'd have to agree He just needs to win a championship to cement his legacy, otherwise he's just gonna turn into T-Mac

I'd honestly have to rate Klay over Manu because he scores more, has more defensive accolades, is more efficient, and is just as successful

I think Manu's argument is that he was a better passer/dribbler

 

My list puts him just outside top 10, with an argument at 11th:

  1. Michael Jordan
  2. Kobe Bryant
  3. Dwyane Wade
  4. George Gervin
  5. James Harden
  6. Clyde Drexler
  7. Tracy McGrady
  8. Ray Allen
  9. Reggie Miller
  10. Vince Carter

Thoughts?
