There's a block % stat, but as far as I can tell it accounts for all 2 point shots taken while the player is on the floor, not just his man.

Hakeem is at 5.4% for his career and Shaq 4.6%

That's what I was figuring.

I figured Dream would still have him in any block stat, anyhow.

In their prime relative to the competition = Wilt

Overall = Hakeem
At peak (offensive effectiveness) = Shaq

Shaq's biggest weaknesses were GLARING weaknesses:
1. Shooting - FT for example
2. Pick and Roll Defense - HORRIBLE
3. Late game effectiveness (enter Kobe)

Hakeem had no real weaknesses.

So he would have had more blocks, but not 1,000 more.


Hakeem had 3830 career blocks.

Shaq had 2732 career blocks.

That IS over 1000 more blocks.
