Dwight took his team to the Finals. AD couldn't even make the playoffs as Batman most of his career.

I think 08 was just a year shy of Dwight's true prime, while 18 is a part of AD's prime to me. Considering I think both these guys are comparable during their prime years, I feel pretty comfortable with AD here.

Yeah this is Davis. The only Dwight year that might compare is '11. He was the third best player behind LeBron and Harden in a season during which the lead was quite frankly loaded. Howard was towards the lower end of the top 10 in a strong year to be sure but less so than 2018.
