Hey, you can type however you like. It's a free country.

Which means people are also free to make assumptions based on the way you choose to present yourself.

If it floats your boat, knock yourself out.

[Spursfan092120]

thing about sayin longevity is that they both not same. Shaq be dominant n Duncan be soft touch. longevity have to adjusted fo factors such as necessity fo physical ability n the fact Shaq change teams a lot. it arguable Duncan consistency be because he stay with pop n spurs all his career, he play ina system. Shaq always play traditional center except with Jackson n triangle cuz that called fo him ta pass more.

duncan gotta betta work ethic n stay in his playin form, that he got ova Shaq easy. Duncan mo balanced n better facilitator also. he also betta overall defense cuz versatility n passing blocks. that dun, however, make up fo the beast that Shaq is. better player is a factor of every aspect of da game n while Duncan was great in most aspect, Shaq been unstoppable on one side of da court while just his physical presence was enough ta make him valuable on defense.

Shaq made errybody better on his team fo ova 10 years because nobody gave a bout other 4 players, you need ta stop Shaq cuz if ya don't then he fg% over 70. When dominance make people like fisher pull off one of the best 3pt shooting Eva in post season, it awe inspiring. Shaq dominance on offense n impact on team game plan is why he betta.

[purplengold]

it wasn't an insult. just describin the situation tbh..

description be subjective n negative, that be an insult

[purplengold]

ya disagree or you too inept ta read?

[Kidd K]

It is Shaq unless LeBron gets at least 4 rings, which I doubt is going to happen. Wade's getting older, and his game will not age well since it's heavily based on athleticism. LeBron is roosting in the terrible eastern conference though, so it's pretty much a cakewalk into the Finals this year for the Heat. Possibly next year too if Rose doesn't come back 100% and no other team steps up out east as usual.

Anyway, Shaq easily. This isn't some "who's scored the most points since MJ" bull . Who's hit the rest of the league in the head with a pipe more years than anyone else since MJ? It's Shaq and Duncan, but since we're excluding Duncan, the answer is Shaq.

[Jeff Van Gundy]

Shaq is better than Duncan since Jordan. It should be Shaq>Duncan>Kobe. That's it and that is all

[Spursfan092120]

ya disagree or you too inept ta read?

disagree, and I don't understand stupid, so it started giving me a headache..didn't finish it, tbh.

[purplengold]

if ya cant read it then ya pretty stupid already, ain't rocket science. if somtin like that make yo head hurt then ya prolly go through mental shut downs ona regular basis

[HI-FI]

purplengold is an underrated poster tbh. Homeland Stout has gone full re with this one.

[da_suns_fan]

Sorry Spurs fans, but Duncan wasnt even CLOSE to as dominant as Shaq was in his prime.

And Duncan is a center in all but name.

[ambchang]

Agreed Duncan's peak is not as high as Shaquille, but not close is stretching it. Duncan won 2 MVP's and to finals MVP during Shaq's prime, and advanced metrics showed, when pace is factored in, their offensive production is not as far apar, and Duncan's defense is far superior.

[Venti Quattro]

Duncan is not included because he's not in consideration. Makes it for users to sort out things.

[scanry]

Lebron will go down as the best player since Jordan. I don't think it'll even be a debate 5 years from now. I see Lebron winning maybe 1 or 2 more reg season MVPs and 1-2 championships. Winning 3 will put him above the trio of Duncan, Shaq & Kobe. If he fails, then Shaq is the best since Jordan.

However no one will ever be as dominant as Shaq any time soon. I remember seeing Pop looking at Shaq in 2001 & 2002 playoffs, he didn't have an answer. Duncan was just starting to peak and he had to overcome Shaq. That's why i consider Duncan's 2003 playoff series against the Lakers his greatest series ever. He was amazing in Game 6 in LA.
