Wonderful analysis.

One factor I never hear the talking heads bring up is that Roger and Djokovic hardly played during Roger's peak. I know it's subjective and debatable, but I think Roger peaked in early 2007.

If you look at the matches played against Djokovic and Rafa through the end of 2007, Roger was 5-1 against Djokovic and 6-8 vs Rafa.

I'm in no way saying that Djokovic and Rafa were at their peaks at that time. However, Djokovic in particular hardly had to deal with peak Roger. What if Roger were the one who was six years younger? A 23-25 year-old Roger would mop the court with a six years older Djokovic.

This is still relevant, and I wish the ATP would adopt your charts to show how unrealistic the comparisons are when used to support Djokovic.
