Which gap is bigger between these positions?

Is the gap greater at PG from one to the next in Magic, Frazier and then Isiah or is it greater at PF with Duncan then Garnett and then Dirk?

The gap is bigger at PF. Duncan-Garnet (Great defensively and offensivly), then you go off to Dirk, who isn't on the same level defensively as both of those.

With Magic, Thomas, and Frazier, I think the gap is closer. All 3 were great defensively, play-making ability is also terrific, and scoring is spread out evenly, maybe with Thomas and Magic scoring a little more (they were both 20 point scores), but the gap isn't big, as Frazier wasn't off of the 20 pt mark much.

I think the largest gap is between Magic and Frazier/Thomas.
Duncan is a great player, but he isn't doing things that are changing the way the game is played.

Magic came in and took the league by storm. He was doing things that nobody had ever seen before. We hadn't seen anything like Magic before him, and pretty much only LeBron comes close to being compared to him since his retirement.

With Duncan and Garnett, you can make an argument that KG would be considered as good as Duncan if he won as many titles. Realistically though, Duncan has been bread in the Spurs system, which is easily more respectable than the Timberwolves franchise, which is kind of a joke.

Frazier and Thomas are closer than Duncan/KG and Dirk.

Duncan, KG, DIRK, WEBBER, BRAND

if brand didnt play a majority of his career on the clippers, his career wouldve been better in terms of marketability of his skills and team success in comparison to those guys above.
