    Peak Kobe.

    Shaq needed the greatest SG ever to win.

    Wilt needed a weak ass era

    Jordan needed a weak ass era and the most stacked team of all time.

    LeBald needed the 2nd most stacked team of all time and the refs, along with the 2nd greatest SG ever.

    Kobe needed....? Pau Gasoft?

    A lot of you guys lack reading comprehension. It's what match up would you rather see? Not ranking the players.

    I'd like to see a match up of Wilt Vs Shaq (prime) so we could settle the whole era/who was stronger/better etc. debates. That would be more fun to watch.

    I've seen enough of Jordan/LeBron in their peak to know Jordan would eat LeBron's heart as an apetizer, that would be predictable and would get boring.

    A prime Chamberlain was considerably stronger than a PEAK Shaq...and more skilled and athletic, as well as taller and longer.

    You won't find Tex Winter claiming that Shaq could dunk his FTAs. nor Arnold Schwartzenegger being impressed with Shaq's strength.

    Of course, what would make that matchup entertaining would be the rules in place. Chamberlain never played against anyone as physically powerful as Shaq (well, Artis Gilmore, whom Robert Parish claimed was stronger than Shaq)...but then again, Chamberlain seldom "bullied" his peers, nor was he allowed to do so. It would have been interesting to watch Wilt being allowed to unleash his power and strength on a fellow player.

    The video no longer exists for some reason, but Kiki Vandeweghe was on record as attending a summer league game in the 80's, in which the 7-3 (or 7-4) Mark Eaton played in. According to Kiki, Chamberlain stopped by, and some point, a player dunked on Wilt. An enraged Chamberlain just took over the game, and overpowered a helpless Eaton for a ferocious dunk. He then left the court, and all the players were completely awestruck. Wilt was in his 50's at the time.

    Here was the original link, but again, it has been removed.

    1) Jordan - 6x rings
    2) LeBron - 2x rings
    3) Shaq - 4x rings
    4) Wilt - 2x rings

    Great question/thread honestly but there are too many trolls on here.

    Jordan 33-35; 52-55%, 6 and 6 3 steals basically and one of best defenders on the perimeter
    Bron (57% for 2 years), 27 8 7 a couple steals almost and a block; was guarding basically every position.
    Shaq 30 12 and 3 blocks like 58-60%; defense was never elite or as great as it could have been but the most unstoppable force of anyone on this list. Only reason he is #3 is b/c of the free throws but you can also argue #1 easily.
    Then wilt; its hard to judge wilt because of the competition he played against but

    If I had to pick who I would want though to start my franchise; it would go shaq, the bron, then mj, then wilt. Shaq just because of his size and then bron over mj since lebron does more and can do more with less(as we saw how he took cle to the finals in 07, albeit they got swept, with no talent and jordan couldnt do much w/o pippen)

    Lol just like I stated; this forum has too many trolls for a serious thread. Probably thats why its the least respected basketball forum anywhere. When you state 0 facts and use dumb names for a player then your argument is already invalid.
    Lebron accomplished more without an all star than jordan did and thats a FACT buddy. Im sorry but you have to deal with it. Jordan couldnt win playoff series' even without Pippen and Grant and then Rodman let alone making the finals. And also had guys like tony k, kerr, and paxson.

    Wilt would get owned so hard that he would literally retire by halftime.
