Which of these players would win a 1 on 1 tournament in prime/current?

Honestly, I'm going to go with Dirk, because he can shoot from 3 point range, and his post up mid range game allows him to not have to take his man to the post to score, but instead only work his way to mid range and get that shot off without getting blocked, because he has that fade away jumper that is a deadly weapon. It will be close though, Blake Griffin is fast with good ball handling and excellent footwork, so he could get to the basket a lot. The others on this list (Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Amare Stoudemire, Pau Gasol, Zach Randolph, Lamarcus Aldridge) might have a harder time creating good looks for themselves, because most of them are post up players or pick and roll guys. Kevin Love could do good offensively, but his problem will be athletically and defensively, where he could get out jumped for a rebound or just flat out shot over because he is undersized and can't contest some shots.
