Which would you choose? I'd go with D-Wade and shaq. One is Shaq is not as good as he used to be and yet they still won a title. Back in the Lakers championship reign Kobe and Shaq's relationship wasn't that good. Wade also gets his teammates involved as much as he can. But i wanna hear what you guys think about this.
no way man - Kobe and Shaq in their primes were much better than Shaq and Dwade. Talent wise = kobe and shaq get the mark; also Kobe and Shaq won like 3 championships together. I don't think Dwade and Shaq will get another championship, Shaq is getting older, and the Heat's bench is about to suck because I think Zo, and some others are going to leave. overall, it's not even close - Kobe and Shaq will be remembered forever as one of the greatest duos in sports history.
I'll sum it up real quickPrime Shaq + Young KobeorPrime Wade + Old ShaqI would take Prime Shaq every single time, there are plenty of good swingmen out there but not as many dominant centers especially like Shaq. Also, Wade and Shaq have only won 1 ring and are starting to run out of time.
Wade isn't even in his prime!But I take Shaq and Kobe. Shaq putting up 30 PPG with Kobe's 20+ is better than Wade putting up 30+ PPG and Shaq rarely putting up 20 +
Anyone who says Wade/Shaq...In the title years:99-0067 winsShaq: 30 points, 9 boards, 4 dimes and 3 blocks a gameKobe: 23 points, 6 boards, and 5 dimes a game00-0156 wins (one loss in playoffs)Shaq: 29 points, 13 boards, 4 dimes, and 3 blocks a gameKobe: 29 points, 6 boards, and 5 dimes a game01-0258 winsShaq: 27 points, 11 boards, 3 dimes, and 2 blocks a gameKobe: 25 points, 6 boards, and 6 dimes a gameLook at those, compare the supporting casts on the Heat to that of the Lakers...Go ahead say that Wade and Shaq are better...
I understand this is the height of the miami heat love fest but only an idiot would say Wade/Shaq touches Kobe/Shaq.
Prime Shaq and Prime Wade>Prime Shaq and Prime Kobe. Unfortunately for Wade Shaq is far from his prime and is getting worse by the year.
What you basically said is Wade is better then Kobe in his prime, a prime Kobe and prime Shaq would be unbeatable if they could co-exist.

Prime Shaq was the best basketball player in the league and prime Kobe is the best basketball player in the league. Wade is not the best player in the league. If you actually believe that, your seriously more stupid than i thought.Unless you factor in the chemistry issues but the lakers still dominated with all the problems.I know it's fresh in your memory of wade owning you but have you not forgotten when Kobe outscored your whole team through three quarters? And how about that 43 in dallas?Ah but i forgot, you though Dirk was a better passer than kobe and you though sasha is a good defender.
Just wondering, what's "stupiding"? I really don't know what you were talking about when you talked about his stupiding regarding the Lakers.(Okay, I did. Just felt like saying that.)The main thing for me is that the Lakers had 3 and the Heat have one with a rapidly declining Shaq. I actually think Wade's going to end up like Kobe, stuck on a mediocre team in his prime and then carrying them into the playoffs. Although I think both of them will get better teams towards the end of their prime and make another run at it.

I don't know how people can say Wade is better then Kobe, who is probably the best in the game.
I actually don't consider Kobe the best player in the league. I consider him the most talented, but he's too much of a headcase for me to call him the best. I take the intangibles into consideration there. Although there's no question that Kobe is the most talented player in the game... no question.
Shaq, and Kobe were better they got 3 rings. And also the Lakers did not have Posey, Williams, ect....Miami had a better supporting cast. And Shaq in his prime is better then Shaq not in his prime. lolShaq/Kobe duo is one of the best ever.

Sorry but I found that statement to be extremely funny :HAHAHA: :HAHAHA: I can see how you can make a case about Wade being better then LeBron but Kobe? Kobe is superior in practically every category except slashing maybe.
