You can make a good argument for either one of them

Shaq absolutely belongs in the top 10 of that list. I could absolutely see someone wanting Shaq in his prime over Hakeem in his prime. I'd take Hakeem, but it is close.

The ESPN people that put the top 100 together must be under 25 yrs old

Dominique gets way too much love in my opinion

Lebron, Durant & Steph too early to rank?

CaliWG

and LeBron is in his 13th year. how is that too early?

um, Shaq and Hakeem actually did play against each other and it was basically

It was close.

In the series Shaq got 28 ppg on 60% FGs with 12 rebs. Hakeem 32 ppg on 48%

And that was near peak Hakeem vs. very young Shaq

Shaq hit peak form pretty early

Hakeem was a spectacular player.

You can only pick one center... No way would

Probably really depends on the make up of your supporting cast...I'd pick Shaq

Shaq's best seasons were better than Hakeems best seasons statistically

smokymountainrain

2/12/16 1:32pm

I don't know the Hakeem would eat his lunch argument is pretty compelling.

mpfunk

2/12/16 1:33pm

oh yeah. how soon I forget. Hakeem - easy.

smokymountainrain

2/12/16 1:34pm

Disagree. Shaq was a completely unstoppable force of nature. That wasn't the

Wade is ahead of Havlicek because he's better than Hondo.

LeBron is 15th all time in scoring. not too early to put him on such a list.

smokymountainrain

2/12/16 1:17pm

by as soon as the end of next season LeBron could be sitting at

smokymountainrain

2/12/16 1:25pm

No Dwight Howard in top 100 but Dantley is too low at 72?

BGRTHNUMEGO

2/12/16 1:19pm

Did you see Dantley play?

Downtown

2/12/16 1:21pm

Amazing scorer, empty stats, 5.4 rpg with a career high season average of 7.6.

BGRTHNUMEGO

2/12/16 1:26pm

Lebron could probably be ranked...

Downtown

2/12/16 1:21pm

Probably be ranked?

mpfunk

2/12/16 1:37pm

Yeah, I think I'd take LeBron in his prime over most anybody.

ElCapo

2/12/16 1:40pm

Jordan is the only player I'd take over Bron Bron

mpfunk

2/12/16 1:44pm

I know you don't want to hear it and I'm preaching to the choir, but LeBron

smokymountainrain

2/12/16 1:44pm

The debate for best player of all time is between Jordan and LeBron James

mpfunk

2/12/16 1:46pm

I think you have to take MJ, but yeah people underrate LeBron. Having said that

smokymountainrain

2/12/16 1:49pm

Its kind of hard to compare those two to Kareem or Wilt

Hang10

2/12/16 1:54pm

And the league as a whole wasn't even close to as good as it is now.

Dillinger

2/12/16 2:01pm

This might be sacrilegious but I think Bird and Duncan are too high

Hang10

2/12/16 1:23pm

Shaq should probably be top 5 actually.

Dillinger

2/12/16 1:40pm

I disagree with nearly everything you wrote
