Shaq will always be considered better because of 1 thing: Competition. Hakeem, Ewing, Robinson, Mutombo, the list goes on. Name ONE center that's an all star besides Howard. The guy pads his stats against scrubs and chumps. He's good, of course. But he's not an all time great by any stretch of the imagination.
Dwight howard's dunks were more electrifying than shaqs. And shaq is a mean person. He bitched about dh and hated kobe. I think most players of the nba would hate that old ass son of a cocky mother fucking dirty ass
To be honest, Shaq is better then Dwight Howard. Dwight Howard is competing with centers such as Amare, Bynum, Al Jefferson who is not a legit Center, Yao Ming (who just got injured)...who else? The other great big men are guys like Dirk, Gasol, Garnett, Duncan, and rising stars like Bargnani and Blake Griffin. Shaq has gone up against Hakeem, Ewing, Malone, Robinson, Alonzo, Dikembe Mutonmo, Kemp etc. Shaq is a much better offensive player. Dwight is better defensively though - rebounds/blocks.
@shooby1213 your a fukin idiot. Dwight just smiles more, shaq can turn it on killer instinct and win ships. Dwight will smile and call it a day in orlando. Shaq played the NBA's best centers and got bigger as his career went on. Dwight is known for his smiling as far as im concerned.
Why are we comparing Howard to Shaq (besides being both centers)???? Howard seems more like a combo of Karl Malone and Shawn Kemp------he has Malones body build and strength, Kemps athleticism/dunking ability, and both of those guys rebounding skills. Those 2 guys come more to mind to me with Howard than Shaq or Chamberlain do.
NBA's All-Time Best Centers: Shaq, Kareem, Wilt, Bill Russell, Mikan, Bill Walton, David Robinson, Hakeem Olajuwon, Moses Malone, Ewing... I guess that's it? Loll.
no contest shaq was so much better than what howard is today or will be....he was one of the most dominating players to ever play the game of basketball....he could do anthing but hit a free throw but thats not much of a difference from dwight
@urpimpjack thanks for your opinion about your favorite center, snaq o meal. sure, dwight doesnt have as much offensive game as shaq had, but he is much better defender.
shaq demanded the ball during his prime, dwight doesnt do that, so of course shaq scores a lot more than dwight and thats where this illusion of shaq's offense is way better than dwight was created. however, it is true tho that dwight relay on his strength too much on offensive side rather than techniques, which shaq did.
For a 10 year period Shaq's points per game.93-94 29.3...94-95 29.3... 95-96 26.6 96-97 26.2... 97-98 28.3... 98-99 26.3... 99-00 29.7... 00-01 28.7... 01-02 27.2
...02-03 27.5 .Dwight will never match that...Dwight's missed VERY FEW games due to injury Shaq's missed quite a few so Dwight has the edge on durability.
this is funny. why is this even an argument, dwight isnt even the best center in the game right now if yao was healthy. cant compare dwight to shaq. shaq is on another level at this stage at his career compared to dwights. wen dwight develops a low-post game like most great centers do, then we can have this argument
Shaq is automatically better. His resume says it all. Shaq has an MVP, Finals MVP and has a 4 rings. He was an unstoppable force in his prime. Shaq is known for power, but his quickness and agility was unheard of for a player his size. Shaq had soft hands and great touch and soft hands unlike Howard. He had greater range. Dwight can only go up to 5 ft (I'm being generous) away from the basket. Shaq can go twice that length. Shaq is a greater entertainer in my mine. Shaq=Future HOF
who can compete with dwight in his time? yao ming? that's all. but in shaq's time there's a lot of talented centers like deke but he can still dominate them. who's better now? dwight or shaq?
you couldnt stop shaq no matter who you were or no matter how good your team was any time throughout his career, except maybe now when he is like 38 years old. even with phoenix 2 or 3 years ago, he was putting up 18 a game. how do you stop dwight howard? kendrick perkins. dwight has no post game, just back down and dunk. put a center who has the power dwight has, and hes not a factor on offense.
Dwight just good on defense ,, but shaq,he can dominate everyone in league. . dwight prime can't stop old shaq,, what if he meet the prime shaq? hell no . . so shaq is unstoppable not like dwight ,he is slower than shaq even with he's smaller body. . have you imagine a guy with body so big can plays like that? shaq is the greatest,strongest, n best center all the time..
Dwight Best center in league today, hands down. BUT Dont forget:
Dwights Best season: 21 ppg 14 rpg 2.9 bpg
Shaqs Rookie Season: 23.5 ppg 13.5 rpg 3.5 bpg
You cant compare Shaq and Dwight even through they both big and strong, Shaq was a player who thought he should be the man an Offence player with very good defence aswell, let the ball go through him every offence and it worked he got league MVP and a 3-peat with 3 finals mvp
Dwight is much more unselfish and defence player and a great future
23.4 points on 56.2% shooting, 13.9 rebounds, and 3.5 blocks per game in his rookie season...so quit bitching that Howard is better than him, because his totally no match against SHAQ in his prime

D. Haward is gonna be better than Shaq. right now, I can say he is the best blocker ever. verybody. No limit included kobe, wade, Lebron, i mean everybody. I feel like he is gonna be a big big guy in the next 5 years.
Shaq's much better. Dwight's nowhere near as dominant, he's the best center today, but in the 90s he'd not be an all star, 90s has the best centers Shaq, Hakeem, Ewing, Robinson, Zo, Dikembe and Kevin Willis was also pretty good.
let's wait till howard to avg 25plus and 13 plus 5 seasons in a row and win couple rings then compare him to shaq at his prime,, coz there's not much to compare with besides dunking the ball (when they're open) and free throws..
come on people.. love dwight but shaq vs dwight is too lopsided at this point of his career. Shaq is one of the most if not the most dominating forces the NBA has ever seen..
Reason why Shaq cant make freethrows cause if he did even God would have trouble guarding him.
@GarrettGilbertSon vs the Celtics in the playoffs, Shaq averaged 14 points per game, while playing only 23 minutes, while Howard averages 16 points per game, while playing 39 minutes. Looks like shaq has played better vs the group of retirees. Oh and last season, Shaq missed ZERO games for the suns... he doesnt belong in a retirement home at all
@GarrettGilbertSon clearly you aren't watching the playoffs, Dwight Howard is losing 3-0 to the Celtics, and if you say well the magic dont have lebron, well get your head out of your ass cause lebron lost the series for them. Shaq won his first championship in his sixth year, and won mvp, kobe didnt, and this is Howards sixth year, and hes not gonna win it this year. So no im not stupid, I just dont want to get swept by a group of players that belong in a retirement home.
whats even more embarassing for howard, is he let pau gasol, odom, even bynum when he wasnt in foul trouble stop him, shaq wouldve murdered those 3 guys in his prime.
Yeah or just look at the stats. Shaq's first 4 year stats better than Dwight's first 4 year stats. I know Dwight came from high school, but this year he should have already had a better year than Shaq's rookie year.
Dwight could not parallel what Shaq did in his prime.. The Most Dominant Center Ever Played.., Remember the Finals where Orlando faced the Lakers? Dwight made his first dunk on the 2nd game of the Finals, he was practically invisible in Game 1. But Shaq, You could see him from Space.. Whatever game it is, you could always see Shaq.. Shaq is number One!
@xenojake43 "The Most Dominant Center Ever Played." What are you 12 years old? He could have been the most dominant center every. If Shaq didn't out weigh the avg. center by 150 pounds. He would be so overhyped. He's a fat lazy SOB. I don't care for Kobe, but he said it. If he HAD the Heart of Kobe, Wade, Howard, Charles Barkley, Karl Malone. Shaq at his size should REALLY dominant everybody. He should be avg 40 points & 20+ rebounds.
Jerome James was 7 ft 300 pds...he couldn't average 5 ppg...Michael Olowokandi? 7 ft 300 pds..he was a bonified bust
Shaq was dominant due to his athleticism at his size...name me another center who can move like Shaq did at 300 pounds.
Every player has a flaw, Shaq didn't have much heart or work ethic, but its not to the degree of Shawn Kemp....Shaq's '00-03 era was right up there with Jordan's prime dominance and Chamberlain's
why are these two even in the same video? shaq is 3rd most dominant center ever, after kareem and hakeem. yes, more than chamberlain. if shaq played in wilt's era, he'd average 100. dwight howard is still trying to develop his first move
did you just ask why they double up on dwight? have u seen him play. He is to talented and strong to be single covered. plus he is a beast. He gets very little credit even though he is currently the best center in the game. You say what dwight can't due but umm dwights played for 5 yrs and shaq has for about 17 years. Give Dwight time. Shaq at his prime couldn't defend like dwight dows now. Gvie him time you will see. PLUS he has 4 all-stars on his team dont dis dwight for sharing the ball
@dewthejew92 u r a moron, shaq averaged more blocks in dwights age. and same rebounds. 12.5 i think.... and he played against the admiral, hakeem, wing ,rik smits, tim duncan. ahahahahha its a joke to even compare him with dwigay howard. u must be a teenager cause u clearly dont remeber shaq in his rookie and sophomore years. His speed his moves his post moves. unmatched. Dwight is good. but he will be no legend. even if he improves a lot he still lucks the opponents shaq had (hakeem, ewing etc)
@dewthejew92 I think u should maybe download some old shaq games dude.
U'd see how better Shaq was. Others centers were unable to stop him, even by doubling up on him. It was like a joke. Dwight is just good to wait small guys under the rim to block them. He'll never be as good as Shaq, never ...
@dewthejew92 shaq defended far greater centers then dwight has. There isnt any real big men now. But im sorry shaq would destroy Howard in there prime.
@dewthejew92 R U DUMB shaq is the most dominating player in nba history in the post name me a player that can guard shaq one on one in the post with SHAQ tell me not dwight 611 vs 71 and shaq in his prime is way way way stronger STOP talking.. look at Shaqs in the finals. they one cuzz shaq had to have a double team or easy dunks. then kick out kobe or fisher. dwight gets shoot down by rashed wallace.. JUST STOP TALKING!!! DUDE
@TheAlexandertv well, there wasnt much competition for shaq back in his time, you dont see him blocking shots like dwight. in this time, dwight has so much more competition. plus shaq is old, why do you think he is always getting one year contracts
@dewthejew92 umm there was NO center who could guard shaq in his prime, want me to give you the name of one man who can and HAS stopped dwight from being in a game at all offensively? Kendrick Perkins...who dwight has said himself is his toughtest opponent...look at their matchups, he makes dwight look like a rookie the way he defends...just a reminder...NO ONE could stop shaq
@dewthejew92 What does a punk ass like you know about basketball played when you were 8 -10 yrs old. Shaq's rookie season > Dwights career, and that's a fact.
@rawimpact Thank u, Shaq would eat up Dwight in his prime. Most of the superstars would not want to play against many of the greats from the 80's 90's era. Thats when they allowed real defense to be played and not none of this touchy touch fouling their calling now a days to make people like lebron, kobe, d wade look unstoppable.
shaq es un pendejo, solo por el tamaño puede hacer lo que hace, peor no tiene la mas minima tecnica y tuvo la ventaja de rodearse de gente con talento como afernee, kobe y wade, de ahi en fuera es pura mercadotecnia
eso e suna tonteria , es como decir k los jugadores de la nba acen mates y acen lo ka cen solo x lo altos k son , shaq tiene un gran cuerpo para el baloncesto , lo normal es que lo use no??
tu mismo m eestas dando la razon diciendo que por el cuerpo q tiene lo utiliza, en efecto es lo q hace, arrastra al defensor y lo lleva hasta la canasta, yo creo q viste el juego de pies q hacia hakeem, o robinson, poste sde su mism aera, fundamentos y tecnica, el shaq nunc aha tenido eso, por algo los equipos s edeshacen de el, no es jugador franquicia
if shaq was better in his prime,but shaq went to college, so wat is it howards 5 or 6 year in he league, if he went to college it would only be his 1 or 2 year so he is still gettin to his prime
its a huge insult to compare this wooden dick with the great Shaq.. Dwight is just a monster...everything he does its based on pure strength,but Shaq.. oh man... In his prime he would destroy Dwight even in strength.... and, TECHNIQUE..oh man, Dwight is wooden, and Shaq is maybe the most skilled centre ever, behind Hakeem, he is from another universe..
I'm an Orlando Magic fan and I like Dwight but O'Neal use to be so dominate! With his size, weight, and strength it was hard to stop him. Dwight needs to work on some kind of post move, hook shot or something.
Show me a clip with DHoward doing a good post move....its okay I'll wait...
5 years in the league and doesnt have a go to post move...what has he been doing all those summers...he gets his points off missed shots and putbacks you cannot call him dominant...plus Yao Ming treats him like a rag doll every time they play...anyone that says that Howard is better deserves to be flogged in the towns square...
I second that....In the playoffs he bitched and moaned to Powerade to give a commercial and when he got it what did he do... Do some corny and bad impressions...Really Howard...Needs to be working on his game...Athleticism will one day go..it happens to the greats and the scrubs...he too will learn that and then he will just be a below average player with "what ifs" in his mind....
@thugnificent0the0rul so right. cool stat: shaq the only one in history to have back to back 40 pts 20 rebs in a playoff game. dwight will NEVER DO THIS
dwight will never have shaqs dominance and ability to change the game, the rules, and put FEAR in opponents, change the coach of the other teams game plan. thats what shaq used to do. the game plan always was how do we stop shaq. they even tried hack a shaq and u idiots think dwight is better?? morons
watching these old clips really brings back memories, you really see how amazing shaq was in his prime. he was too strong for anyone to guard him in the post. they are different players, dwight is more explosive but shaq was def the most powerful center ever.
Nah enough of haters.. Shaq is proven Champion and the most dominant player the game has ever seen.. D12 is great but not even close to Shaq.. Put Shaq on his prime vs D12 now.. Shaq just gonna posterized him like what he did to the other centers before.. Shaq is Shaq.. THE REAL SUPERMAN.. NOT JUST A GUY W/ A CAPE AND WIN A DUNK CONTEST W/O EVEN REALLY DUNKING THE BALL.. HAHAHA
yah... shaq got hes own moves... dwight tryin to imitate others... and shaq was included in ten wonders of basketball.... he was tenth... ofcourse mj 1st.... shaq can score without dunking because he is gud shooter in one hand in the paint...
Offensive and Defensive, D. Howard is a freaking MONSTER on both ends. All he needs now is the championship title and a season MVP. Shag has never won a Defensive of the year title all his career, he wasn't that dominate on the defensive end as most great defensive centers.
Dwight is improving alot and I like his personality. He's funny and cool and enjoys the game but shaq take it too seriously. Being good is good but you have to also love the sport like Howard does.
now. i know dwight is good but shaq will be still better than him if he's in his prime... in shaq's prime.. he faces david robinson,hakeem, karl malone, mutombo all those great big man. not like today. who did dwight compete today that is a big man? hmm. not.. all the big man today are a bump! hehehe!
hw bout yao ming for a start, ya hes only 7'6", then kg, tim duncan, pau gasol, and u got much more talented centers who can not just dunk like crazy but shoot 3 pointers and stuff like that....
Please, Bynum is jus' another broken down piece of work. ONce that ankle twist again thats it fo him so please do not try and mention Bynum as a top contender of a center.LMAFO!
im a big dwight fan but it doesnt make since to even try to compare him to shaq yet. howards offfensive game doesnt exist all he can do is dunk. the only stat dwight is beating shaq in is rebounding and he barely got him beat in that. dwight hasnt even reached shaq's rookie season yet. lets be serious people
Good Shaq video, not great Dwight Howard video. Dwight has done a lot since this stuff. That's always going to be happening though. I do think Dwight could be as good as Shaq though. Dwight's still young and if he gets a jump shot and makes consistent free throws you never know. He missed some really big free throws last year but I think he could be better. He has more Athleticism which in my oppinion gives him the advantage.
seancyB are you nuts? more athleticism? shaq 7'0 330+ pounds was agile as a Small Forward and you're saying dwight has more athleticism? Only thing dwight has got on shaq is his vertical.. sucks on other aspects
better athelete, howard easily, but we're not talking about a track and field contest. shaq is and always will be, in the top 3 greatest post scorers of all time, if not the best of all time. only plausible arguments are kareem and wilt, but many stand ahead of howard when it comes to scoring ability, like ewing or olajuwan or david robinson, he can jump out of the gym, but he needs to work on his offensive game before he loses those legs
but his Orlando Magic '93-96 days he was more athletic
he may not have jumped as high...but he was faster, quicker, stronger, and more dominating...not to mention he's not a slowpoke in the paint like Howard is.
Agreed that's what i meant he jumped a lil higher, plus everyone underestimates shaqs great moves in the low post cuz the thing that stood out was how big, stronger, & athletic, but he had some great moves on the block
shaq no athleticism vs howard..how ward no rigs vs shaq..and no shaq didnt get 3 rings cuz of kobe..other way around...kobe was only good for 2 years out of his career..the two years the lakers missed the playoffs..too bad he is garbage lately..and this is coming from an LA lakers fan..gotta get rid of him
@krazzyyo2 well kobe helped a lot in those 3 rings. but i agree. take any other great player of the time. cweb , bibby, carter, etc and put him in the 2000-2002 lakers along with shaq. u would still get 3 rings. but take out shaq and put anyother center of that time in the lakers team along with kobe and u wont get any rings. still kobe helped a lot. he deserved those rings
again for ppl saying shaq had more dominance, he was better, but come on, look at dwight, he is a specimen, he is fast for his size and is ripped beyond beleife, shaq's dominacne didn't come from just his size, it was his footwork and knowledge of the fundamentlas of the game, he did not have a huge variety of shot selection but it clearly worked
This is stupid though.. Its like comparing Jordan now to Kobe bryant now.. I think because of Age Dwight is going to get some get shots on shaq this year but it wont be fair to say Dwight can compare to Shaq.. I bet kobe bryant could kill Michael Jordan now but Jordan has two bad knees and is old now..
dude shaq in his prime is unstopable..not even dwight howard of now can stop him..yeah his a lil older so he cant do those monster dunks anymore..but he can still rebound and play defense a little bit.
Shaq will always be considered better because of 1 thing: Competition. Hakeem, Ewing, Robinson, Mutombo, the list goes on. Name ONE center that's an all star besides Howard. The guy pads his stats against scrubs and chumps. He's good, of course. But he's not an all time great by any stretch of the imagination.

Reason why Shaq cant make freethrows cause if he did even God would have trouble guarding him.

@GarrettGilbertSon vs the Celtics in the playoffs, Shaq averaged 14 points per game, while playing only 23 minutes, while Howard averages 16 points per game, while playing 39 minutes. Looks like shaq has played better vs the group of retirees. Oh and last season, Shaq missed ZERO games for the suns... he doesnt belong in a retirement home at all
Cuishy123 1 year ago
@GarrettGilbertSon clearly you aren't watching the playoffs, Dwight Howard is losing 3-0 to the Celtics, and if you say well the magic dont have lebron, well get your head out of your ass cause lebron lost the series for them. Shaq won his first championship in his sixth year, and won mvp, kobe didnt, and this is Howards sixth year, and hes not gonna win it this year. So no im not stupid, I just dont want to get swept by a group of players that belong in a retirement home.

Two words: Zone Defense
David Stern had to legalize zone defense during '02 to stop Shaq and the Lakers
that's a testament to how dominating Shaq was...that reason alone makes him better than Dwight
Dwight needs to get on David Robinson's level before legit arguments can be made

Dwight could not parallel what Shaq did in his prime.. The Most Dominant Center Ever Played.., Remember the Finals where Orlando faced the Lakers? Dwight made his first dunk on the 2nd game of the Finals, he was practically invisible in Game 1. But Shaq, You could see him from Space.. Whatever game it is, you could always see Shaq.. Shaq is number One!
xenojake43 2 years ago
@xenojake43 "The Most Dominant Center Ever Played." What are you 12 years old? He could have been the most dominant center every. If Shaq didn't out weigh the avg. center by 150 pounds. He would be so overhyped. He's a fat lazy SOB. I don't care for Kobe, but he said it. If he HAD the Heart of Kobe, Wade, Howard, Charles Barkley, Karl Malone. Shaq at his size should REALLY dominant everybody. He should be avg 40 points & 20+ rebounds.

That's foolish of you to say that
Jerome James was 7 ft 300 pds...he couldn't average 5 ppg...Michael Olowokandi? 7 ft 300 pds..he was a bonified bust
Shaq was dominant due to his athleticism at his size...name me another center who can move like Shaq did at 300 pounds.
Every player has a flaw, Shaq didn't have much heart or work ethic, but its not to the degree of Shawn Kemp....Shaq's '00-03 era was right up there with Jordan's prime dominance and Chamberlain's

did you just ask why they double up on dwight? have u seen him play. He is to talented and strong to be single covered. plus he is a beast. He gets very little credit even though he is currently the best center in the game. You say what dwight can't due but umm dwights played for 5 yrs and shaq has for about 17 years. Give Dwight time. Shaq at his prime couldn't defend like dwight dows now. Gvie him time you will see. PLUS he has 4 all-stars on his team dont dis dwight for sharing the ball

@dewthejew92 u r a moron, shaq averaged more blocks in dwights age. and same rebounds. 12.5 i think.... and he played against the admiral, hakeem, wing ,rik smits, tim duncan. ahahahahha its a joke to even compare him with dwigay howard. u must be a teenager cause u clearly dont remeber shaq in his rookie and sophomore years. His speed his moves his post moves. unmatched. Dwight is good. but he will be no legend. even if he improves a lot he still lucks the opponents shaq had (hakeem, ewing etc)

Good Shaq video, not great Dwight Howard video. Dwight has done a lot since this stuff. That's always going to be happening though. I do think Dwight could be as good as Shaq though. Dwight's still young and if he gets a jump shot and makes consistent free throws you never know. He missed some really big free throws last year but I think he could be better. He has more Athleticism which in my oppinion gives him the advantage.

better athelete, howard easily, but we're not talking about a track and field contest. shaq is and always will be, in the top 3 greatest post scorers of all time, if not the best of all time. only plausible arguments are kareem and wilt, but many stand ahead of howard when it comes to scoring ability, like ewing or olajuwan or david robinson, he can jump out of the gym, but he needs to work on his offensive game before he loses those legs
