This is a close one, but I'll go with Clyde. He played a lot more defense and passed the ball more and still scored close to as much as Wilkins. Both had the athleticism to jump out of the gym. Drexler won a lot more.

CLYDE, he would of won a NBA title too with Portland if the refs didn't let Jordan go to the Line 30 times a game, Drexler out played Jordan in those that years finals and the refs gave it to the Bulls, Wilkins was a stud but Clyde was Super

Aww man this is a tough on but It has to be dominique wilkins aka the human highlight reel. If you actually look back a dominique wilkins on film he could do everything jordan could do on offense. HE just played on some classic Atlanta Hawks teams witch is never a positive statement. Yeah he was just a average defender, but so was clyde, but clyde was'nt as dominant on the offensive end

Clyde Drexler. NBA.com desribes him as: "One of the game's all-time great guards, Clyde "The Glide" Drexler was known for his high-flying yet seemingly effortless swoops to the basket. "
Add to that is the fact that he was elected to Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame (2004) was a NBA champion (1995); an All-NBA First Team member (1992); an All-NBA Second Team member (1988, '91); an All-NBA Third Team member (1990, '95); 10-time All-Star; One of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History (1996); and a former Olympic gold medalist (1992).
The fact that Dominique was not a member of the 50 greatest player named by the league itself says it all. Their career Stats are as follows:
Dominique's stats
G1074
FG% .461
FT% .811
Rebs 7,169
RPG 6.7
Asts 2,677
APG 2.5
Stls 1,378
Blks 642
Pts 26,668
PPG 24.8
Clyde's stats
G1,086
FG% .472
FT% .788
Rebs 6,677
RPG 6.1
Asts 6,125
APG 5.6
Stls 2,207
Blks 719
Pts 22,195
PPG 20.4
The fact that only 12 games separate their careers and Clyde doing much better all around says why Clyde is much better than Dominique.

Clyde the Glide. He has a championship ring and can do it all. Wilkins is just for show. The Hawks haven't been any better since he left.

Clyde is better overall team player with hakeem was part of
Hi Slama Jama, but Dominique was a better
dunker and individual player. I got to say Clyde finishing
the job of winning a title in Houston (should have done
it in college too) with hakeem makes him a bit better.

Drexler - unlike Wilkins, he's got a ring (with Houston).
