Hakeem vs Shaq

<< < (2/8) > >>

Tha A:
both beasts, both great ones. hakeem was the better player (both at their peak) but shaq had a better career.

7even:
hakeem had more skills and dedication, shaq had better nba center genetics and was more of a freak of nature with an absurd physique along with more rings and overall success

Nailed it right in the head. Hakeem was an overall more talented player, but Shaq's size and his ability to use his size made him the most dominant player ever. If he could go back in time, he would absolutely shit on Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell.

Chamillitary Click:
Honestly though, who cares whose more talented though? It's about how you play the game & your effect on it.

NIK used to say Andrew Bynum had better footwork than Dwight & was better than Dwight because of his technical skill. But who wouldn't want to have raw, athletic intangibles that overall make you more valuable.

People say Kobe is more skilled then LeBron, but if LeBron is still putting up the same stat line who cares if it looks pretty with a silky smooth shot? If you're equally unstoppable it shouldn't be held against you.

Nobody could stop Shaq in his prime.
