Shaq just wasn't fair. He is the definition of physical specimen 7 ft 350 lb monster who would box up ANYONE by will. One of the greatest of all time big men
We can always see the hard workers vs the talented guys who think they got it made at 21. The hard workers are still relevant in their 30s while the bums are riding the bench on different teams.
Allen Hernandez wilt was stronger then shaq. Wilt benced 500 pounds and this was documented in his 50's though he did claim he could bench 600 in his prime. wilt outbenched shaq by 200 pounds. Wilt was also faster and had a greater vertical.
MajorFacts I remember reading that in SI at the time.I didn't agree with it because Al could still hit from outside.Shaq was a just destroying whoever guarded him physically,after that 2nd championship it just started to look unfair.
I remember those days. This video doesn't minimally show how truly dominant Shaq was. Dunking was only the last moment, probably a relief for the difender. I remember the center guarding him, desperately trying to keep Shaq away from the rim, often without success and often, even with the help of other teammates. It was a pain just watching it..
GoD'Angelo Russell 1.kareem 6 mvp 6 champ highes leader in point nba 2.bill russel 11nba champ nough said 3.wilt averge 50 point in one season score 100 point in a game most dominant player in nba 4.shaq diesel you know the rest
The amount of times he dunked on Hakeem, mutombo, morning, Robinson, Ewing is insane. Were talking about 5 of the top 10 shot blockers/ rim defenders ever.
@@wesley_Certified thank you. Def wilt, the time between eras still has nothing on his physical stats as well as his in game stats. 48” vert at 7’ and was a multi sport athlete that averaged 74 pts per game in a pro summer league as a 16-17 year old. That’s the shit that makes me think he didn’t even exist, not to mention he trained with Arnold an could bench 500lbs.. scary as hell
I think I finally have understood how people felt against Shaq I’m 15 and went against my stepdad who’s 6’7 or 6’8 385 lbs and he used to bench 535 and deadlift 840 and he used to have a 4.9 40 yard dash when he played football in high school (back and knee injuries) he’s unstoppable in the post of he does a spin or a dropstep he spins the earth 😂
@@yourfavouriteusername you dont really believe that do you? If so allow me to pay my respects to your family for taking care of you. It's nice to see families take care of their own even when its retarded.
@@yourfavouriteusername crack is a drug that effects the entire community but Im at least nice to you folks when I come across you! You must really have a bad binge going on Shaq will SWALLOW Wilt, I'm mean he would DESTROY him
@42brownbomber he just said biggest he got in LA was 401!! Holy Shit!! And he moved like that???? Lakers hid this well but I remember Charles Barkley saying ain't no way in hell , believe me he's 400lbs! Lol. He will kill Wilt Chamberlain...I'll say it again for this moron: SHAQ will DESTROY Wilt Chamberlain
Shaq could be best described as a hurricane amongst other players than can be categorized as tornados, earthquakes and wild fires. he was simply the most dominant human in NBA history. we should consider ourselves lucky to have been witness to his game. luckily we have tape to back up these claims. Shaq is our Hercules
clutchmamba that's how I got mines also except Wilt at #1 and Hakeem at #2 and I respect Bill Russell, but I wouldn't even rate him top 10. There's David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, Dwight Howard, and so many more centers better than him
You're crazy if you think Hakeem is better than Shaq... Shaq won 4 rings and dominated every finals series. Hakeem had moves but couldn't be a force like shaq could be. In fact Hakeem's career would of been better off if he played the 4 instead of the 5.
SMaRk you're crazy if you think shaq was a better player than hakeem. hakeem was a better two way player and was more of a clutch player on both sides of the ball (as the finals win over the knicks showed this). with that roster that surrounded shaq when he went up against hakeem in the finals you'd think they'd been able to win atleast a game but they got swept mostly due to the fact that hakeem outplayed him. outside of being dominate in the low post shaq has almost nothing on hakeem (maybe could argue with shaq being a slightly better passer). Shaq wasn't a better free throw shooter, wasn't a better defender, nor did his game extend past post play. youre definitely over rating shaq if you think hes better than hakeem just because of his dominance offensively.
Boredasfuc as great as wilt is, he is the most overrated player imo, just cause he avg that much the casuals thinks he is the best. Just as they ride russ this season cause he avg a triple double. They just look at the score man, not watch the game
grosskopf2 one different between Shaquille O'Neal and big wilt he was nice about his strength they say big wilt was not allowed to bully players especially white one, i know shaq had alot more finesse in his games but old nba players teach young players stuff in the off season mose malone taught Hakeem stuff Patrick Ewing teach players too etc etc
Vivek Rao I wudnt say its more soft the game requires much more skill to dominate elite competition shaq was just physically dominating not skilled ,big man are required to shoot ,pass ,defend and handle the ball more these days not just post up and bully ball opponets
F G S B SakBoyyy Shaw has some of the best footwork in the paint for someone his size. To say he wasn’t skilled is an insult. Shaq is a big reason the game is the way it is now with fouls.
Those who said he didnt have work ethic clearly never seen him play live or just saw the last days of his career & read up on the bias press about him leaving LA... the man would get hacked and i mean hacked not no love taps and still destroy his opponents... If he was in todays NBA he would probably be at the free throw line 50 times a game get hit with techs cause he's bulldozing these guys... Shaq himself said 'I could have dribbled because i had handles, could have practiced my mid range but i stayed with my craft, mastered it and dominated down low" ... hence why he hates it when big man who have size dont play physical & start shooting 3's and jumpshots
Now we have Centers taking 4 3 pointers per game and trying to play like guards. It's nice to watch players like Jahlil Okafor, Boogie and Zebo that still enjoy bully ball.
Ball handles 100points In The First Half No shit but the majority of his points come from the paint. He's physical. You're telling me that when you think of Boogie Cousins you think of a 3 point shooter? Ok...
Chris James I never said that what I said was that he shoots threes you trying to discredit other big men's game because they can shoot then credit someone who can play inside and out those big men that can shoot it's not the only thing that that they can do like AD I don't know if you consider him a big or a forward but does the majority of his points come from outside shooting or Marc gasol
Ball handles 100points In The First Half I didn't say I was trying to discredit other bigs games, I just grew up during a time of Shaq, Mourning, Duncan and The Admiral. I've always respected a big man that can bully down low and scrap for points. I also respect the bigs that can play outside the paint, I just don't like that playstyle. I understand why AD and Boogie are shooting, because their team is ass. If you look at the majority of AD and Boogies points in general, they are normally down low.
In wilt's era there small weak white centers he faced how can you say that wilt is the most dominant? Meanwhile shaq's era is full of great centers like mutombo,yao ming olajuwon,ben wallace,robinson.
You won't see anything Like him again ...
Maybe zion will
He was a freak of nature

Shaq just wasn't fair. He is the definition of physical specimen 7 ft 350 lb monster who would box up ANYONE by will. One of the greatest of all time big men
Imagine how much more dominant he would've been if he had the crazy work ethic.
Kawaii Leonard he probably would have gotten a lot more injuries too.
✪ .Kr!st0ph3r That's because he was lazy. Didn't put the time to condition his body. Hell, he hardly worked in the offseason.
We can always see the hard workers vs the talented guys who think they got it made at 21. The hard workers are still relevant in their 30s while the bums are riding the bench on different teams.
Nah, forget the work ethic, imagine if he could shoot free throws. GOAT
Jay Lee He would've certainly destroyed Kareem's all-time points record.
*SHAQ WAS AND STILL IS A BEAST*
how about wilt and kareem
Hi Cow none of them could guard Shaq
Allen Hernandez wilt was stronger then shaq. Wilt benced 500 pounds and this was documented in his 50's though he did claim he could bench 600 in his prime. wilt outbenched shaq by 200 pounds. Wilt was also faster and had a greater vertical.
Allen Hernandez beauty and the ugly beast
Hi Cow force equals mass x acceleration. Shaq is the beast.
The NBA allowed zone defense because of Shaq's dominance in the post smh.Just a flat out monster on the block.
Rick Scorsese plus they added 5 seconds back to the basket
picture if you had to gaurd him 1on1 and he could back you down for the full 24seconds
New Royal Maaaan,it would be like trying to check Randy Moss in man to man coverage with no safety help😂😂😂
Pretty sure that rule was because of Mark Jackson and Barkley, not Shaq.
Rick Scorsese and for Iverson as well
MajorFacts I remember reading that in SI at the time.I didn't agree with it because Al could still hit from outside.Shaq was a just destroying whoever guarded him physically,after that 2nd championship it just started to look unfair.
MJ and him, in their primes, are probably the 2 most dominant players I've seen since I started watching NBA basketball in the early 90s
Hakeem would destroy Mj
I remember those days. This video doesn't minimally show how truly dominant Shaq was. Dunking was only the last moment, probably a relief for the difender.

1,000,000 fouls would've been called already on Shaq in today's NBA
Offensive fouls..
Soft
In the 60s Shaq would’ve fouled out during the 1st quarter.
They were really strict when it came to lowering your shoulder
Yep & 5,000,000 on the defensive which is charmin soft
Kaen's Flames Bro he’s a rhino. It’s not his fault he’s that big plus he was skilled.

Part of what made Shaq great was his antics! He just had so much fun playing the game, it made you want to watch him play :)
The most dominant center I've ever seen. If Shaq is not in your top ten of all time, you really don't know basketball
In terms of the combination of size, strength and vertical, he might be the most dominant big man of all time. No one could stop him tbh
Wilt

Shawn bradley disliked this on 9 different accounts
Immovable might not be the best word considering he was moved between like every franchise
I wish The NBA makes videos like this for Timmy. He's the best PF all time after all.
Lol Yao's response is perfect
Shaq was a straight up beast
I love the Diesel! Would like to have seen him get more rings, but a great career nonetheless.
Imagine him in todays game.... wow. Nobody could touch him .
Shaq played before I watched the NBA but he is probably my favorite center even though he hasn't played for my favorite team, the Spurs.
This man is the reason why i play ball in my opinion top 3 centers of all time
Shaq! the most physically dominate big man to ever play in the league- and HELL YEAH i said it!!!!

I would swap work ethic for ability to shoot free throws.
Shaq + Free throws = G. O. A. T.
Shaq! The man who CARRIED Kobe to his first 3 chips & Wade to his first chip.
#5xSBchamps! #AmericasTeam! #WeDemBoyz! How did he carry wade lmao dude averaged like 34 points in the finals 😂
nobody can stop this man
Shaq was an immovable object and a terror down low for a good 8 years. It wasnt possible to stop him inside
A year ago from yesterday, his miami jersey got retired. #fearthebeast 🏀🙏💯

Better watch those again. Only to do it was Hakeem but that was baby Shaq
1:44 you gotta be a mammoth of a man to make David Robinson look this weak.
Best free throw shooter ever..
Love these past few vids
where are players like him?
At least back in them days players contested
Wilt, Russell, Giannis, Joker, Duncan, doesn’t matter. Prime Shaq is alien. We will never see a dude like him ever again.
Shaq is the best center to ever play. Deal with it Wilt

An Kobe the unstoppable force
Kareem couldnt stop this
More like an unstoppable force.
This man is the reason Kobe has three rings not five. Please look at how dominant he was..
These good old days where power forwards & Center actually play their positions are gone. Most of them nowadays would rather shoot 3s, except for few.
Wow fantastic .
Very Powerful...second most dominant
