Cousy was the better player, by a pretty decent margin.

Why can't we ever compare Rubio to black people?

Could you elaborate? Not doubting your opinions I'd just like to see people go into depth with their reasoning. If not though its fine I'm kind of dodging the whole issue not saying MY opinion

I suspect Rubio could pull off winning on a team that won 5 rings without him. I also doubt he shoots 32% on three title runs and has a run in the playoffs going like 5-45 as Cousy did at one point(and I dont mean the 8-40 games 6 and 7 either).
Dude was a pioneer. But how he shot so poorly on teams running enough to score 120 a game is beyond me. He had to literally miss every shot that wasnt a layup....then a bunch of layups too.
I would not choose the 40s product pointguard. Just too different. Id take a 50s bigman. Same skills needed. A 40s point is a whole other story.
Bob Cousy was a center now and then believe it or not. At 6'1''. Very different time.

I've seen many of your posts before I'd love to hear your opinion on what players from the 40/50s era you think could play today....Guys like Mikan, Lovellette, Pettit, Schayes, Johnston etc.

You're entitled to your opinion but since Cousy overlapped with guys like Russell, Chamberlain, Pettit, Baylor, West, Oscar etc I'm sure even a star like Dwight would get his shit rocked by the bigger names of back then. Not that he couldn't get his as well....probably get laughed at for Playing volley ball during a basketball game also
I think he forgets which sport hes playing at times

Not if they were born when Cousy was born. It wouldn't be a foregone conclusion.
