IMO Bird and Hakeem are also unquestionably better than Durant.
Chuck and Admiral are questionable.

Yes.
His uber elite scoring and ability to fit into any system with effortless ease gives him a pretty massive gap. Magic is overrated. Bird was way better.

Yes in todays era KD easily
Much better scorer
Defensively KD is better
Magic is GOAT in transition but in halfcourt KD is easily better

Kevin Durant has at no point in his career ever had the impact of Robinson or Chuck. Big Dave literally has a top 5 impact all time.

Na man. Yeah kd is a better scorer but offence is more than just scoring. Magic is responsible for more points because of his assists. Hes a much better passer than kd is a scorer. He's a better leader also. It's not close really

Better than all except Hakeem and maybe Bird in this era with practicing his shooting
Magic and Chuck didnt play any defense. U can hide Magic on non shooters and bigs with no offensive skill but itd get exposed in the playoffs. Too slow, too poor a defender
Robinson is one of the biggest playoff chokers ever. He feasted on horrible teams in the playoffs and always got jumped and strangled by the real teams
ppl mention the Hakeem series...........but that was actually one of DRobs BEST series offensively
these are DRobs series against top teams/defenses in the playoffs
93 vs Portland: 1-3, 19.3 ppg, 4.8 apg, 2.0 topg, 48.7 TS%, 107 ORTG
94 vs Utah: 1-3, 20.0 ppg, 3.5 apg, 2.3 topg, 47.1 TS%, 104 ORTG
95 vs Denver: 3-0, 19.0 ppg, 3.3 apg, 2.0 topg, 49.3 TS%, 105 ORTG
95 vs Houston: 2-4, 23.8 ppg, 2.7 apg, 4.5 topg, 55.3 TS%, 106 ORTG
96 vs Utah: 2-4, 19.3 ppg, 2.0 apg, 2.3 topg, 52.6 TS%, 107 ORTG
98 vs Utah: 1-4, 18.8 ppg, 1.6 apg, 2.6 topg, 47.7 TS%, 101 ORTG
pathetic hes the modern eras Wilt in how he wilted

Re: If the following 5 players played in this era, which one would Durant be better than
Except for Bird and Hakeem, I think you can argue all of them depending on the team for me.
Well, probably not Magic either. But it's tough for Magic imo. Magic is better offensively when it comes to improving the team offense, but similar to KD now, he had a stacked team in the 80s.
In today's era, I dunno how things will be like. Like they will likely play differently and in different positions. Magic will be the most interesting one. KD probably won't be as important in terms of impact I wanna say in a similar way that Curry has more impact on the offense end than KD. But KD is the better two way player. But not so much where it's that much better than Magic. Anyway, it depends on how the team is set up. Some cases, Magic will be better. Other cases KD I would say.
Peak David Robinson in the regular season, I think we all think he's better or on par. In the playoffs, I think KD will pull ahead. But he might be better in this era than in the 90s. I dunno.
Prime Barkley is around KD's level. Equal, slightly worse I guess.

Montrez Harrel and Patrick Beverly just destroyed the Warriors on the inside today... if Chuck and Robinson played today they would be battling for the MVP every season
