The most physically imposing force in NBA History. 4 rings 3 finals mvps . Far from overrated . He is rated right where he should be .
While I am elite great center>>>>MJ, MJ was better than Shaq due to Shaq's lack of regular season focus. For the playoffs, Shaq as was impactful as any all time center which is greater than MJ for me. I am an impact guy, I don't give a shyt about being excited by flair and shoes.
2 of those finals he was playing against Todd MacCullough..................

Shaq was like a big man's version of Michael Jordan. He dominated his opponent's down low, like Jordan dominated his players on the perimeter and basically everywhere else. Jordan is better only because Shaq was lazy and should have gotten at least 7 rings but was too fat and out of shape.

I don't think any of the Bull's championship teams could have beaten the Lakers in 2000. Shaq was a beast.
Shaq was one of the best shaped guys in the NBA for many years. It fell apart in Cleveland. His issue was regular season motivation. In the playoffs, he was better than just about everyone.
No one of those finals was against MacCulluogh. His other two were against Rik Smits/Sam Perkins and Mutumbo. He had to go through Tim Duncan, And David Robinson, , Sabonis , and Divac , to get to those finals. Not to mention he used to destroy David Robinson throughout his career on a Reggie and put up numbers on Olajuwon when he was young in the finals they lost. Shaq was unstoppable period.

Jordan's playoff numbers are
. It was far from flair and shoes are you crazy? Lol. He was productive all over the court and impacted both sides of the ball, all facets, unstoppable. 
I wouldn't really say he was in great shape during some of his Laker days. may have worked to his advantage some though, Imagine going up against a dude who probably outweighed you by 30 pounds in the post.

Shaq couldn't be stopped. Hack-a-shaq wasn't that effective but the Jordan rules were. Besides, the NBA let MJ get away with murder throughout the 90's and he got credit too much for some of the things Pippen did for Chicago.Jordan's playoff numbers are
Ya'll boys love talking this MJ is the greatest and I don't see it. I watched the games. I watched all of them. Have all MJ's highlights and of course, he entertain me more than any other NBA player but he's not the greatest. There isn't one and if it was, it would be Wilt, Bill, Kareem, or Tim Duncan.
Those Bulls teams were like having the cheat GOD MODE on.
that MJ on Kobe match up though.
7% body fat in LA thoI wouldn't really say he was in great shape during some of his Laker days. may have worked to his advantage some though, Imagine going up against a dude who probably outweighed you by 30 pounds in the post.

You answered you own question.
The Bulls had CBA Pete Myers replacing MJ and only lost like two more games the next season. Cleveland lost Lebron and lost 42 more games the next year. Michael was amazing but to compare his impact to an elite center is hysterical at best. Lebron is the only perimeter based player with center impact I've ever seen in the NBA.
