    Default Peak T-Mac vs Peak Bird

    My brother thinks T-Mac peaked higher and there is no argument to be had.

    T-Mac: 32/6.5/5.5 on 46%, 56 TS%

    Bird: 30/9/6 on 52%, 61 TS%

    He also said he's not sure LeBron, Durant or Kobe peaked higher than T-Mac. Basically, he really likes T-Mac.

    Peak Bird is in the conversation for greatest player ever. I was a T-Mac fan too, but he's no Larry Bird.

    Bird and it's not even close. 3 MVPs in a row speak for themselves.

    TMAC probably had a more aesthetically looking game. That's about it. It was smooth and beautiful to watch.

    When we include post-season play, Bird wins. Very clearly.

    Larry had the better peak.

    T-Mac was great but no way was he better than Larry Bird

    No question on this one.

    T-Mac had a great peak and I loved to watch him play, but Larry Bird has a top5 peak ever and the best peak for a SF (actually just forward, at that), only Lebron coming truly close, let's say (Durant's still young though).

    Oh, and it's not all about the numbers (and accolades/awards even), gotta watch what he did too, look at the whole picture.

    Stats aren't everything.

    Obviously Larry Bird at in his Prime had a lot more impact than T-mac.

    Thus the answer is Larry Bird.

    End Communication!
