<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">BTW........Shaq selfish? is this a personal vendetta u have or something</div> I know shaq gives off the persona of the "big happy fella", but Kobe wasn't the first superstar he couldn't get along with.....I remember him having trouble with Penny and Brian Hill when he was in Orlando.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TheFreshPrince:</div><div class="quote_post">and wilt is a selfish person by your facts, not basketball player. shaq isnt even better, on or off the court.</div>Wilt is the only player in NBA history to brag on sleep with over 100,000 women. Shaq has NEVER been caught up in anything off the court, and is going to be a cop when he retires so he can help the law. Shaq sacrificed his stats for the team, which ultimatley lead to a 4th ring. Wilt argued with the stats guy in between a game at halftime because he thought he had more points. Selfish? Do ur homework first before makin blanket statements
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Shaq has NEVER been caught up in anything off the court,</div> Actually Shaq bragged about having sex with Cindy Crawford, Aalyiah, and couple of other females on a Los Angeles radio show a few years back.
I've seen Hakeem play in person and he doesn't have the egotism that shaq has or even the goofy attitude taht everyone loves, but he has that respectful humbleness that Dwayne Wade is beloved over. The definition of the next MJ is someone who changes the way the game is played and impacts the game like no other. We are still searching? We might have found him in 2003 in Wade or Lebron, but we have yet to find the next Hakeem. Hakeem impacted the Center position in the league like no other big man has. Where is the next Hakeem? Closest versatile centers to hakeem reside in Phoenix and Houston. (Amare and Yao)
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting THE DREAM:</div><div class="quote_post">Actually Shaq bragged about having sex with Cindy Crawford, Aalyiah, and couple of other females on a Los Angeles radio show a few years back.</div> To others maybe, but Wilt said this on national t.v., and it was 100,000. What a great role model
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting THE DREAM:</div><div class="quote_post">Actually Shaq bragged about having sex with Cindy Crawford, Aalyiah, and couple of other females on a Los Angeles radio show a few years back.</div> Shaq is speculated to have said this, among friends. Wilt bragged on sleeping with 100,000 women, and actually CONFIRMED it. No comparison. Advantage Diesel <font color=""Red"">Edited- Stop going off topic. This thread is related to Hakeem, do not bring irrevelant comments into this about Kobe, Wade, Lebron, etc. [AznxBaller]</font>

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Rock4life:</div><div class="quote_post">Well I kinda thought it had to be more about talent than personality.........The next Jordan is Kobe. Wade needs to focus on being the next Kobe, and so does Lebron. </div> How the heck do you manage to fit kobe into an Hakeem thread? Lets stick to Hakeem. And for the guy who said something about wade, post it in 1 of the "Wade is good but Kobe is the Best threads."
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Rock4life:</div><div class="quote_post">Talent don't lie</div> That doesn't even make sense.
As humble as Hakeem was (later in his career), people tend to forget that early in his career Hakeem was........well to be quite frank dude could be kinda dirty in the paint...lol.....we're talkin takin dudes heads off, fighting other players, etc......Hakeem wasn't a soft boy...lol

Rock4life: <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Nothin makes sense when ur in denial</div> ....... hahaha We gonna go thru this again? Yall get shut out on the offical threads where we talk about that topic, but rather than admit defeat you come on to a different thread and try to slip in a quick plug. haha in denial?? The next Kobe?? Wade and Lebron in their 3rd year are already better than Kobe-- what are you referring to ? <u> You convince us how they're not.</u>. Kobe has 3 championships? He also played with Shaq for 8 years in his prime opposed to Dwyane Wade for 2 in his declining years. The next Jordan? The next Kobe? .. Here's Kobe at a slow crawl on a pace to need around 20 years just to break even with Jordan's 11 year Bull's numbers let alone his impact; and you're telling us that Wade and Lebron need to focus on being the next Kobe right? -- So they must be at a way slower career pace them Kobe himself?? Forget about Wade winning the ship and Finals' MVP in his 3rd year, and Lebron setting records and having an all around game Kobe will never have. huh forget all that stuff--- they'll probably need at least 15 years to come even close to catching up to Kobe; and thats being lucky huh Rock?
^^^lol, I have to agree....I mean D-Wade won with an over the hill Shaq, imagine what he would've accomplished on those Laker teams.....and Lebron at this stage does a lot of things better than kobe (rebounding, passing the ball, trusting teammates,etc.)

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TheFreshPrince:</div><div class="quote_post">i brought this topic up a few weeks ago, so dont act like you were the only one that new this. and shaq was very selfish while in la and orlando.</div> How? He led his team to the finals in Orlando, and along with Kobe took the Lakers to 3 rings. Selfish players don't win 3 rings.
Wilt has 2 rings!!! since selfish players dont win 3 rings, and you say that wilt was very selfish and shaq wasnt at all. 1 ring difference is pretty much not even a factor.
no, one ring difference is pretty much not a factor. ... But,Shaq has 4 rings Rock Fresh and Trench, reply to my post about Kobe # 52
