Who was the better 2nd/3rd option in their respective era. Caron Butler or Khris Middleton?

I've been thinking about star players who will ultimately end up being forgotten by history.. and these two came to mind.

Both great players, who definitely function better in the 2nd/3rd option role.

We know Caron played in a slower era with less spacing and less threes and more focus on mid-range/post play.

While Middleton was competing during the 3 point/space era.

So who was the better 2nd/3rd option in their respective eras?

Middleton by a lot. Middleton won a title as a second option and is more efficient in terms of ts+ in the rs and also has 7 playoffs series above 23ppg as a 2nd/3rd option while Butler did almost nothing in the playoffs.

Butler was a better passer but Middleton a better scorer. I think you have to give credit to the guy who was part of contending teams.

I see the similarities, but Middleton is the more polished version
