In their primes who would you rather have on your team: Shaq or Garnett

[zerocool]

Well this escalated quickly

 

[blu197]

Shaw by far.... Garnett was Dirk status in Minn shoot in jumpers bein passive. Folk forget all that now

First of all Dirk > KG

And the level of disrespect to dirk is ridiculous.

Dude made it to h finals out the west twice. With two totally different roster.

With no second option at all.

Duncan had Parker and Manu

Shaq had Kobe

Dirk had Devin Harris first time around and The Matrix the second time.

Dude is top 25 all time

He also lost to an 8th seed team after winning 60 games and winning MVP.

Point?

And please tell why this makes him a lesser player then KG?

Nigga no. Dirk was nuttin up gettin locked down by small forwards word to Steven Jackson mat Barnes and Shawn Marion. He got Avery Johnson fired nuttin up missing free throws vs mia in the finals. No defense soft. He had Finley Nash Terry van exle and punch of other players in his career. Kg>>>Irk

Don't even ask me how...

Dirk avg 33/16 in the playoffs vs KG in 03 when Mavs swept them.... Finley was half way out the door when Dirk was starting to hit his peak and Mavs became legit contenders when Nash left... KG missed the playoffs 3 years straight in his prime, teamed up with potentially 3 HoF players for 1 ring... Dirk won a ring with one of the least talented team in recent memory, each team he faced had 2-3 Allstars and he was the underdog each round and not one series went to a game 7...Dirk>>>KG

 

[dalyricalbandit]

nothing could stop shaq besides free throws

 

[Focal Point]

It's Shaq... the man would have been even greater had he stayed in shape all the time and worked on his free throws

 

[Focal Point]

That and not been in Steel...

 

[Shizlansky]

I'm pretty sure he did. He just couldn't make them.

 

[Mister B.]

Prime Shaq: THREE rings, THREE NBA Finals MVPs, one regular season MVP. (CARRYING Kobe, no less)

Prime KG: One regular season MVP.

No-brainer.

 

[Angeles1son85]

Lol ya talkin shit yet still took the time to vote

 

[ericb4prez]

At least dirk still can play consistent ball if we talkin longevity plus career accomplishments I'm takin the German

Garnett was never Dirk status.

he needed a stacked crew to win. Dirk won with Jason terry and Tyson Chandler!!!

 

[its....JOHN B]

Will this go down as the most lopsided poll ever?

 

[KNiGHTS]

I can depend on Shaq in the 4th...

Came to say that. All that barking Garnett did when LeBron was being piled on about being a 3 Qtr Superstar made me lose all respect for dude was he was the original. Word to Scottie Pippen.

I have a rebuttal but I'm still high off the Spurs winning #5 and I hate both KG and Dirk (respect the hell out of them tho)...

All I'm going to say is its Dirk> KG because of 2011... KG had the same team in 2004 but Sam I Am got hurt... Both won one and lost one in the Finals... Both got an MVP... One got 1 more finals MVP...

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Garnet top 5 PF, shaq arguably is a top 5 player

 

[greenwood1921]

Three athletes come to mind when I think of athletes who were so physically dominant that they seemed like they were grown men competing against kids in their prime...

1. Shaq

2. Iron Mike Tyson

3. AD

AND...

Breaking goals so much that the NBA had to make them "Shaq-Proof" >>>> KG goaltending shots after a whistle. lol

 

[Chef_Taylor]

T/S you serious....prime shaq was a different beast than any young centers to come in the league that i can remember.
