You're an expansion team. Who are you selecting first, knowing everything you currently know about both players?

Shaq

As much as I want to pick LeBron I can't go against Shaq who was one of top 10 dominant players imo

I can see the youth in this post. Give me Shaq. The NBA had to change its rules just because of him. Lebron and Jordan cant say that. Shaq from 98-2004 was more dominant than any player I've seen.

Today's NBA would be killed by a 20 year old Shaq.

Today? LeBron. Before the rule changes? Shaq.

Not arguing with your pick at all. But Lebron is most likely in that top 10 as well.

That is true, but Shaq in his prime dominated like no other.

My dad would take me to Magic games when he was there. I was young as hell, but remember him being unreal.

I am taking the guy who handles the ball 10/10. Prime Shaq was incredible & a ton of fun to watch but the NBA today is driven by the dominant wings

In today's b-ball, lebron and as stated it's not close. 30 years ago I'm taking Shaq.. There was a time when there were a lot of big men that dominated more then anyone else on the floor

Eta: with as spread and 3 pointer centric as the NBA had become you need athletic wings and more solid ball handlers.

LeBron led of outcast to the NBA finals so he is great player but Shaq in an era with different rules dominated like no other big man. They made rules to neutralize him...

Can I take Shaq simply for the sound bites?

The only way to stop Shaq is to get the refs to enforce traveling. He was allowed to shuffle his feet at will. He looked like Karnowski on Monday.

Remember Shaq dominated when there was Robinson, Duncan, Ming, Ewing, Olajuwan, and many other 7'+ 250 lbs.+ centers. Today he would get to the low blocks every play. Would either be fouled or score. I can envision 34 ppg - 17 rpg easily.

LeBron and Jordan are the only two players that would make me hesitate in picking Shaq 1st overall.
