lol at Kareem above Shaq. Shaq would have pounded Kareem to the tune of 3 fouls in the first quarter.
Kareem was a stick figure compared to Shaq. Kareem has never faced such a dominating force. Kareem wouldn't have found an answer as to how to guard Shaq.

I dont have any doubt Sabonis would be knocking on the door of the Top 5 if not solidly in had he played in the US from college on.
Top 20 Centers IMO *[I left Mikan off...while I'm sure he belongs in here somewhere, I have no clue where]
1) Kareem
2) Wilt3) Moses [put him here just to piss people off...and because i'm a Moses homer]
4) Russell
5) Olajuwan
6) Shaq [put him here because of work ethic; with the heart of a Moses, Reed, Thurmond or Mourning, he'd be #1]7) Robinson
8) Ewing
9) Walton [would have been higher but for injuries]
10) Thurmond11) Sabonis
12) Reed
13) Gilmore
14) Mourning
15) Cowens16) Wes Unseld
17) Robert Parrish
18) Bob Lanier
19) Jerry Lucas
20) Dwight Howard

Exactly. Shaq played in the era of the great center (90's) and Kareem went basically his whole career without any real competition.
Honest question. If the Diesel played in the 70's and 80's what do yBill ou think he would have done? That's a scary thought...

This makes me think that a 300lb+ Shaq would never have held up physically in the 70's, he could barely hold up in the 90's and 00's. Without modern day shoe technology and modern day court underlay, also team charters and many other things that benefit the modern day player there is no way Shaq would have been able to stay remotely healthy enough to truly dominate.
