I was going to go Wade again, but I think DRob actually has a slight edge.

Robinson:

2x Champion

10x All-Star

Rookie of the Year
1xDPOY
1xMVP

4x 1st team All-NBA
2x 2nd team All-NBA
4x 3rd team All-NBA

4x 1st team All-Defensive
4x 2nd team All-Defensive

---------------------------------

Wade:

3x Champion

11x All-Star

1x FMVP

2x 1st team All-NBA
3x 2nd team All-NBA
3x 3rd team All-NBA

3x 2nd team All-Defensive

DRob gets my vote.

DRob gets my vote.
Wade at his best was easily a top 5 player in the league. He just couldn't stay healthy long enough to string together a very distinctive and impressive peak.

He's adapted his game very well to age and the various physical limitations but I just can't place him over the other 3 candidates.

Dirk is no doubt a great player but he's not better than Malone and Robinson or Isiah and Pippen for that matter.

Oh yeah and Dr. J

I will say D-Rob. Before Duncan arrived he was one of the best players in the league. Scoring champ and mvp.

Is Dirk starting to become underrated?

I mean people are considering a serial playoff underachiever like Malone and David Robinson.

David Robinson's legacy was saved by Tim Duncan. No lie. Those 2 titles he has, no matter how small of a role it was, seriously boost his all time case.

Does dirk not get a huge boost for beating the horrible tyrant that is lebron James? I like dirk, he was an awesome offensive player, but Robinson provided so much more defensively along with being a scoring champion
