Nah. He could have been better than he was, sure, but he was never nearly as athletic as Shaq.

ETA, It sounds like a good story, though. Kudos to him.

I thought he was a better player than shaq. Better moves, better shot. He just got fat and lazy.

Roberts was always a much more polished offensive player than Shaq. I remember watching an NBA game in '93(?) on TNT when Roberts was with the Clippers. It happened to be a game when Roberts was on the top of his game and really going at it. The announcer (Hubie Brown?) couldn't believe Roberts' play saying how much "he really liked this kid" and what a force he was. I always liked Roberts and hope the best for him.

Disagree. SR had mad offensive skills that Shaq never developed. Great touch, could handle the rock, and was more agile. If he had Shaq's heart he would have been HOF material.
