there is no human in the history of life that could stop shaq in his prime

Tell why Greg healthy couldnt stop shaq when he is just as strong and big as shaq?

shaq was bigger, stronger, smarter, faster, quicker, jumped higher, had good knees, ect...

Because He wasn't as good as Shaq. And this is one of the biggest under statements I could ever make.

 

[sea manup]

Prime Shaq wouldn't stop Prime Hakeem

Prime Hakeem was insane

hakeem wouldnt stop shaq either

 

[urbetterthenme]

Prime Shaq wouldn't stop Prime Hakeem

Prime Hakeem was insane

6'10 Hakeem was owning a younger and stronger shaq. Hakeem was too smart

 

[sea manup]

orlando shaq isnt even close to the player that lakers shaq was

 

[mister friendly]

The 2001 76ers were one of the worst NBA Finals team ever.

then blame that on allen iverson.

So Iverson wins the NBA MVP that year but isn't one of the best players in the NBA?

But Dirk is? Even though he lost a first round 1 vs 8 matchup that year

You cant have it both ways, you cant pick and choose who you give respect to

 

[black migo]

If shaq shot atleast 70% from the line

Tell why Greg healthy couldnt stop shaq when he is just as strong and big as shaq?

Because he simply isn't big enough.

yeah I can its called critical thinking.

it was the most fraudulent MVP in the history of the league, Shaq was the best player.

and Dirk's MVP was 100% legit.

 

[shoeking2101]

your right nobody was stopping shaq.



PTS TRB AST STL BLK
33.0 15.8 4.8 0.4 3.4

:x

That's fake

 

[black migo]

5'10 leading your team to the finals, if that isnt the definition of mvp then idk what is

 

[osh kosh bosh]

nba finals stats on 58% shooting too,

 

[shoeking2101]

yeah I can its called critical thinking.

it was the most fraudulent MVP in the history of the league, Shaq was the best player.

and Dirk's MVP was 100% legit.

31 PPG and best record in the conference? One of the best teams in the league that year. That's not the most fraudulent MVP in the history of the league by far it isn't

 

[osh kosh bosh]

5'10 leading your team to the finals, if that isnt the definition of mvp then idk what is

he didn't "lead" any one too anything

their defense is what brought them.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Dirk was best player in the league in 2011

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

Hakeem dominating Shaq is one of those misnomers that won't go away.

People think if you score in a more difficult way it makes you a better player or something.


He outscored Shaq every game yes...................but look at their numbers.

Shaq had more boards, assists, steals and blocks. Hakeem shot 48%, Shaq shot 60%. Shaq did whatever he wanted in that series as well. Shaq did turn the ball over a lot. But it wasn't Shaq missing free throws in a 4 point game to start the series off either.

AI is normal male size and was out there beating giants. MVP of basketball. Whow as gonna stop him?

 

[sea manup]

for the 01 playoff run:

shaq averaged 30.4   15.4   3.2  and 2.4 blocks

kobe averaged 29.4   7.3   6.1 and 1.6 steals

lakers went 15-1 with the only loss being an OT game

we will never see a more dominant 1-2 punch than what those two guys did that year 

 

[black migo]

he didn't "lead" any one too anything

their defense is what brought them.

If you're the go to scorer, thats called "leading"

 

[PRIME]

no, no they wouldn't have.


Prime Shaq wasn't loosing to anybody from the east.

Hakeem could stop shaq. I have Greg Oden of right now stopping prime shaq.

When Hakeem start playing in the east though?

 

[osh kosh bosh]

31 PPG and best record in the conference? One of the best teams in the league that year. That's not the most fraudulent MVP in the history of the league by far it isn't

38% shooting. 30 shots a game. please.

the difference between shaq and AI is hilarious huge.

AI is normal male size and was out there beating giants. MVP of basketball. Whow as gonna stop him?

he shot under 40% for the entire playoff run

teams did a pretty good job of stopping him but when you shoot 30 shots a game you're going to score a lot of points

 

[urbetterthenme]

When Hakeem start playing in the east though?

You gotta start reading bro. We been through this already...

 

[osh kosh bosh]

If you're the go to scorer, thats called "leading"

yeah sure, thats for basketball neophytes who don't actually know anything about the game.

two sides of the game.

casual fans dont get this.

Superbowl is on. I ain't got time to read
