Unlike Ben, Shaq also scores a certain amount of points on a constant basis. Ben is one of my favorite players, because he's such a damn hustler. And Shaq is obviously on a irreversible decline. But, Ben is in his thirties as well..
To be honest, I wouldnt go for either one of them, because both a past their prime, and soon past their time. During their primes, Shaq was worth like 10 times as much, but those times are over. As soon as one takes into account how much the players earn, it's obvious that Ben is the better choice. If you leave that out, I'd still go with Shaq. He's still the best center in the NBA, love him or hate him.
Cause I don't care where I belong no more
What we share or not I will ignore
And I won't waste my time fitting in
Cause I don't think contrast is a sin
No, it's not a sin

First of all Shaq has Dwane Wade (the most dominant player in the game right now) so he don't have to score 30 per game.  When playoffs time arrived he was suppose to put up big numbers but he was hurt (and he still managa to put up great numbers). 

What I want to say is that Shaq isn't finish yet.  Next year i will be healty (I hope) and with DWade they gonna crash the league and win it all.

Ben is a great center, the best defensive player in the game, the best rebounder, but he ain't got no offense.  He won't put your starting center in foul trouble every game (like Shaq does), and he miss as much free throw as Shaq.

So Ben ain't got nothing on Shaq, he played well last year in the final and he deserve regognition but Shaq is still too strong for the others center in the L.

By the way Rasheed did a better job then Ben guarding Shaq this year.

Shaq was unstoppable a few times ago but I choose Ben coz of the energy, the shape n simply coz I like him. Don't get me wrong Shaq is still a great player( n helped us to win 3 titles  8) but c'mon he's often injured n when he's not he can't play 2 very great games in a row coz he's tired
