You mean Shaq's 3rd year in the NBA when he averaged 28 points 13 rebounds and 6 assist?
I guess you did miss the FINALS (note I said FINALS, not regular season). Hakeem schooled him.

Yeah, cause both players were in the prime of their career during those finals.

You can tell that's nonsense with just a brief look back at the playoffs (and especially the finals) from that year
Orlando/Houston Finals: Shaq vs Hakeem Comparison:
Shaq
28 PPG
.5945 FG% (44 FGM/74 FGA)
12.5 TRB/Game
6.25 Assists/Game
2.5 Blocks/Game
0.25 Steals/Game
Hakeem
32.75 PPG
.4827 FG% (56 FGM/116 FGA)
11.5 TRB/Game
5.5 Assists/Game
2 Blocks/Game
2 Steals/Game
Although it bucks conventional wisdom a 23 year old Shaq probably outplayed Hakeem at his peak (especially note the difference in efficiency, Hakeem could not stop Shaq)
Also note in teh playoffs Hakeem had been shooting a higher field goal percentage prior to going up against Shaq. Also note Shaq's field goal percentage remained consistent in teh finals compared to the postseason as a whole - a ridiculous 60%.

Shaq averaged 28 points, (on 60% shooting), 13 rebounds, 6 assist, and 3 blocks in that series
Hakeem averaged 33 points, (on 48% shooting), 12 rebounds, 6 assist, and 2 blocks
So, Hakeem averaged 5 more points a game, but he did so by taking an average of 10 more shots a game than Shaq did
Yeah, Hakeem really schooled Shaq in that series

The one person Dream absolutely schooled during those playoffs was David Robinson. Made Robinson look second rate.
