Maravich was years ahead of his time and changed the game in many ways

So from that angle it's laughable to compare the two

If it's who will finish as a higher ranked SG all time, Wade, and it's not even close.

I think Maravich would be ahead of wade on an all time shooting guard list too.

I wonder what wade's shooting percentage is from outside of 12 feet

I'd put Wade as a top 5 SG all time. Maravich wouldn't come close to top 5 IMO.

NBA Career:

Wade >>> Maravich

Overall Basketball Player:

Maravich > Wade....a case for Maravich = Wade can be made too

Answer these questions and you will have your answer.

Could Maravich be a dominant player in today's NBA?

Could Wade in be a dominant player in Maravich's era?

I think Wade is the type of player who would have been dominant in any era. Maravich would be good, but not as nearly as good as Wade.

I'm not a huge fan of questions like that, but I think Maravich could have absolutely played in today's NBA.

He said Pistol Pete would still be good in today's NBA...but not as effective in trasitioning between eras as Wade.
