Pretty easy one. Clyde was much more efficient offensively, a superior defender, and less of a jerk. Both were terrific clutch players and Isiah was the better playmaker but Clyde was the better player.

Call me biased because I'm a Knicks fan but I'm going to go with Clyde here. Their D is not even comparable and Clyde showed he could dominate a game when needed (36 points, 19 assists, 7 rebounds and 5 steals in Game 7 of 70' Finals).

Frazier. To quote myself on the subject elsewhere with some modifications:

with all due respect to Thomas as a player (too bad his reputation doesn't end there) Frazier was just better.
