Kareem has a bigger margin over Walton in my opinion. The difference between them as passers is overrated, Walton is better defender but Kareem is still elite, Kareem is much better scorer.

If the emphasis is more per minute or possession production with an emphasis on the playoffs then the gap between KAJ and Walton is the smaller of the two imo. DRob in both the 94&95 playoffs was kind of disappointing(more so in 94 which is the comp here). If we are going to penalize Walton for less games played and lower mpg in the rs then I guess the gap would be larger between him and Kareem.

Though slightly less than his RS, Robinson's PS wasn't bad.

When the games matter, it is no question 1994. Robinson never had a series like Walton’s Finals.
