Kobe fans are going to be maaaaaaaaaad.

Lebron is too high....ridiculously so. Let the man finish his career but for example compare him right now to Duncan and he gets matched or beaten in about every important category.

I recognize that Shaq was a physical beast and a bigger celebrity but IMO Hakeem Olajuwon in his prime was the better player. Hakeem also didn't have attitude or work ethic issues.

Hakeem was a more skillful player and a better individual defender, but I still wouldn't rank him ahead of Shaq. Shaq dominated the game in a way Hakeem never did.

Shaq had more skills than most people acknowledge though.
