Surpise, surprise the rant leaps to defend Shaq. Not sure why half of you mention how much better Shaq was than Dwight, nobody is saying otherwise and it's really not relevant to this topic. Dwight isnt definitely deserves his share of criticism, but Shaq seems to have had a real jealousy of him for a few years now and it just makes him look so insecure.
Anyway Shaq is wrong here, there's no real argument for Lopez or Bynum over Howard. He's better than both in almost all aspects.

Jessie James made a superman chopper for Shaq

Yeah now....no way he was more athletic than shaq is his prime. Shaq could go coast to coast do a spin move then drop a finger roll on you when he was in his prime. dwight can barely even dribble

Lopez is more skilled than Howard. He has a legit low post game, can rebound, and defend. Lopez is more complete at
the position than Howard. Howard is far better than Bynum tough.

Howard needs to grow up and stop acting like a 8 year old boy that cant handle criticism without crying.

Dont really care who you think is more skilled. Check the numbers, Howard is more productive. Lopez averaged 6 rebounds a game to Dwight's 14 in 10-11. Compare their PER, EWA, etc. It's not even close really.

Shaq is one to talk about somebody's post game. All his points came on dunks or 5 ft jump hooks after he pushed the defender down to the basket because of his size. Shaq has never had a jump shot either. Plus Shaq was never close to being the defensive player that Dwight Howard is or rebounder. When Shaq actually had to play against another good/great center he played like shite. For example against Hakeem, Robinson, Duncan, Divac, and Sabonis. Those series that his teammates had to carry him in just to get him to the finals where he could win those finals MVPs where the only decent center he went against was Motombo

at least the Lakers won't have to worry about DH getting fat on them.

Then you post this in the very next sentence.

And now these gems:
quote:

He's #7 all-time in blocked shots. quote:
or rebounder.
He's #13 all-time.

And what? He did that in a 19 year career. Dwight has only been in the league 8 years and has 3 DPOY awards, led the league in rebounds 5 times which Shaq never did, led the league in blocks 2 times and he's only 5,000 rebounds behind Shaq and 1,400 blocks. Give Dwight just a 16 year career and he is projected to be 3,000 rebounds ahead and equal with Shaq in blocks. Not to mention Shaq played half of his career without a defensive 3 second rule where he could camp out in the paint and against centers and power forwards in the league that didn't have him guarding outside of the lane like big men like Gasol, Dirk, Yao, and many others do now. You seen when Shaq was with Lebron in Cleveland they had to bench him in the 4th quarter in the playoffs against Dwight because he was getting killed on the pick and roll with Dwight and Hedo

24? Is that your age? That would explain why you know so little about Shaq.

Oh for fricks sake. You can't be this stupid. Shaq was 38 years old then. Howard was 24.

Howard has much growing up to do
immature is a compliment to the guy
Shaq is a mogul and a HOF'er. DH should laugh this shite off till he wins some stuff on his own
and he really needs to grow up

No that was my jersey number in sports my whole life and I'm 28 but I'm sure I know more about Shaq than you think I do. I was a Orlando Magic fan and then followed Shaq over to L.A. and trust me at one time I was the biggest Shaq fan there was and yes Shaq was a great player. At the moment he's probably 5th all time at center behind Wilt,Kareem,Hakeem, and Russell. But the thing is Shaq tries to make it seem like he was this great skilled big man when he wasn't. Most of his points came in the paint. He had no jump shot at all. Hakeem was 10x the offensive player that Shaq was but Hakeem wasn't twice as big as everybody he played against so by the numbers they are pretty neck and neck.
That one guy argued with me saying Shaq wasn't as good defensively as Dwight because his career numbers put him so and so on the all time list. Well as I pointed out Dwight has not even played half the years Shaq did and he's projected to be ahead of Shaq in all defensive categories by the end of his career.
