    I shed a tear when he went down in that lakers series and came back and won that game for us but I knew deep down inside he wasn’t gonna return for the rest of the series and we lost in 7 games 🤦‍♂️ shout out to Yao for being a beast in that paint and his post fade was unguardable 💯

      @@yuxuan130411 Yes, I think he accepted Ming as an equal. Shaq has said that he thought that Hakeem was the very best, but I think he's biased, because Hakeem humbled shaq in that famous playoff series. Shaq didn't want to admit that any of the other great centers were even better than Hakeem. But, Shaq has at least admitted that Wilt, Jabbar, and Russell were also better than him (iirc). I think Shaq ranked himself as 5th best centre ever, behind those four. Personally, I think Wilt was clearly the best, but I think you can also make a strong case for both Russell and Jabbar being better than Hakeem as well.

    • @syncmonism
      @syncmonism 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Shaq himself admits that Wilt, Hakeem, Jabbar, and Russell were all better centers than himself. Have you not heard of Wilt Chamberlain?! Nobody in their prime has ever dominated so much on both ends of the court. Even if he had retired after his first season, he would still hold both the highest rebounding AND scoring averages EVER. That's right, nobody except Wilt himself has ever surpassed the rebounding OR scoring averages he tallied in his ROOKIE SEASON. Jordan's best ever season? Still didn't score as much as Wilt as a rookie. Russell or Jabbar's best rebounding season? Still not as much as Wilt's rookie season. Wilt also had the most blocks ever, but they never officially recorded those in his playing days. Russell is probably second overall in blocked shots, but he also played during the same time period as Wilt.

    he's the full package. as a 7'6 center, while his main duty was to protect the paint and rim, also to grab as many boards as possible, he can also shoot, he can dribble, great foot work, post-up, great passing skill. what else you can ask for?

    Fun fact is that he was suffering from foot injuries before he even got drafted. They say he was much more agile before. Ironically his biggest weakness was being 7'6 which led to many injuries and being less quick.
