I LOVE Hakeem, one of my favorite players growing up, but Shaq is better IMO

Shaq. 2nd most dominant player in the game ever. When he was in his prime, and still somewhat today. Only Wilt was better

Hakeem is the better defender, Shaq is the better scorer and more dominant.

Though I haven't seen much of Hakeem due to my age, I'll go with Shaq.

i went with shaq as well due to his dominance of the paint, but i didnt think of the age factor here at SI, i figured Hakeem would have made this a race

though I'm a bit biased, Olajuwon domintated Shaq in the Finals when they met. Hakeem has won a NBA MVP - Shaq hasn't. Olajuwon never won a scoring title, but was in top 15 every year.
