Better Player.....Shaq or Hakeem??

[BigTyme Records]

Who higher on yall all time list

and who would you draft?

 

[dayun]

Shaq was obviously the more dominant of the two. Overall skill would go to the dream. Tough choice, maybe Hakeem

 

[smitty22]

Id take Diesel although Dream was more skilled.

 

[BlackAchilles]

Tough call but I gotta say Shaq as the better one, at his peak teams basically gave up on trying to honestly defend him

As for the draft question: Are we talking about drafting them in their overlapping career period, or hypothetically drafting them in 2017?

 

[Mandizi]

My #4 (Hakeem) and #5 (Shaq) all-time best centers.

Well on defense it aint close....dream is on the short list of the best defenders ever...shaq not so much

Hakeem

I would have loved to see Shaq's career had he not always, his best years anyway, been afforded the luxury of having a top flight guard. Dream didn't have that in his prime

I feel like this thread is made once every couple months...


Diesel was arguably the most dominant player of our era but Hakeem was more skilled . Top 13 in boards, blocks AND steals

Shaq said The Dream use to cook him every time they played

He sweeped Shaq in the Finals

I'm going with The Dream

draft in their era

Eh...Hakeem was an elite player and possibly the most skilled to ever play but...

Dude was having a lot of trouble getting to the finals. After his 2nd year, dude was lucky to reach the conference finals because he was usually get waxed in the first round until his 30s.

Dream is the greatest center I seen in my lifetime.
If Shaq would have took his career serious he would be the greatest center and on the Mount Rushmore of the NBA

 

[King Poetic]

Give me Dream

Don't have to worry about conditioning, foul trouble and poor free throw shooting down the stretch

Shaq Was fukking amazing from like 94 to 05? but he fell off bad...im kinda leaning hakeem even tho he has less rings
