Garnett and Paul, easily. Kidd is the weak link because he is non-existant on offense.

^^yup..Kidd's a great player, one of the best PG's in the NBA..but he isn't really a big time player if you're just playing 1 on 1, or 2 on 2, because of his shooting..

Kidd can't do anything with only 1 player because it is predictable who he is going to pass it too.

Plus, KG is a better 1v1 player than Duncan anyways.

Paul and KG, no question. Both can create for themselves and Kidd is an inconsistent scorer, even though he is a HOF PG.

Replace Kidd with Nash and it's alot more fair.

Duncan would score 100 shooting bank shots. KG can't guard that.

Duncan & J-Kidd are both 1st-team defense players.

No he's not. Not in general, anyway..
