    He crept up on him, but I disagree that he surpassed him.

    Duncan is a close one...I'd probably go with D-Rob in '98 but it's close...

    I'm thinking you either didn't understand the thread or didn't think those answers out too well.

    Reggie Miller was surpassed by multiple teammates late in his career (Artest, Jermaine, Stephen Jackson).

    Hakeem was awful at the end of his career (averaged 7/6 and came off the bench a bunch with the Raptors and wasn't close to the best player the last few years in Houston as well).

    Dirk as a rookie averaged just over 8 points (40.5%) and 3 rebounds.

    Surprised it took so long to mention Dirk and was Hakeem the best in Toronto?

    See my post above on those 2. Both were clearly not the best every season of their careers.

    ^ It is obviously easier if you have only been in the league 2-3 years. That is why in the OP I suggested only current players that have been in the league 10+ years.

    Wade was the best Heat player in 2010.

    I agree with Wally World's list for current players.
