Who was the better player during their 4 year Prime Stretch, and why? Mcgrady from 2001 to 2004 or Ginobili 2005 to 2008?

In last years Ginobili was most overrated SG, stat guys loving him.)
But Yeah, he was good with Argentina.
USA 2002 (Hello Baron) without Great T-Mac – lost to Argentina.
USA 2003 without Great T-Mac – Close Win
USA 2003 with Great T-Mac – Easy Won +20 in Final.
USA 2004 (Hello Tim) without Great T-Mac – lost to Argentina.
PG Lebron '09, SG T-Mac '03, SF Durant '14, PF ????, C Wemby '26.

You're making me hate Manu now, which I thought was impossible.
This place is a cesspool of mindless ineptitude, mental decrepitude, and intellectual lassitude. I refuse to be sucked any deeper into this whirlpool of groupthink sewage. My opinions have been expressed. I'm going to go take a shower.

Is Tracy Mcgrady's scoring pliable towards a championship caliber roster?

If so, why when placed in other team situations where the Defensive attention was diverted away Mcgrady he seemingly struggled to put the ball in the basket?

2000 Mcgrady: 19.2 per 75 on -1.4% rTS

Played 73% of his total minutes with Carter on the floor with Mcgrady

2005 Mcgrady: 25.5 per 75 on -0.3% rTS

Played 64% of his total minutes with Yao on the floor with Mcgrady
