1997-2002 is a fairly wide range of Robinson's play, so it's tough to say. He was declining somewhat in 97/98, but not nearly like he was a few years later.Sith said:would the 06-07 KG+yao combo be better than the 97-2002 duncan+robinson combo?
I do think that with Garnett/Yao, their team would get much closer to the sum of parts than the Spurs did with Duncan/Robinson. This is due to Duncan/Robinson's offensive roles having more overlap.
