As good as Wilt was, he was pretty much neutralized by one player that was almost 5 inches shorter than him.
It's not a stupid question, but it's getting into analytics. The question in the thread was how to build the perfect NBA player, and I don't think anyone would take Duncan Robinson's anything over Curry's anything, right now. Except for youth.
durability, vision, bb iq, scoring, playmaking, handles if he only he was longer, slimmer, and no asthma
15 ft tall / 700 lbs / 200 in wingspan 1 second 3/4 court sprint / 127 in vertical / 54 rep bench press Pros - Shooting of a Toyota Cue 3 - Defense of a Ray Lewis with a basketball - Bobby Sura swagger - PJ Tucker shoe game - Possesses the touch AND the power - Luis Scola once said his skills looked better than okay. George St. Pierre was impressed by his performance.

I think it'd be more fun to use similar enough body types of two different players in the quest to make the 'perfect' player. Hakeem Olajuwon + Dirk Nowitzki The ultimate defensive big that can run the floor and defend like a guard that will also combine into the single greatest offensive big man. Kevin Durant + Giannis Antetokounmpo An athletic powerhouse that can run down the floor with no issue, but is also skilled enough to shot create from any part of the floor. Chris Paul + Russell Westbrook The ultimate playmaker with elite overall skills put into a strong, fast, and explosive body
Ralph Sampson height speed ratio tuned down to like 6'10" Hakeem's coordination PJ tuckers strength Harden's step back 3 Calvin murphy attitude
Harden's scoring genius, strength, handles, vision, deceleration, durability and getting to line IQ. Hakeem's length, agility, footwork, explosiveness, stamina, all round defensive disruption, rebounding, rim protection and warrior mentality. Unstoppable.
