Who'd rather build your franchise on: Shaquille O'Neal or Wilt Chamberlain?

[PTB Fan]

Your team has the 1st draft choice and you need a great center. Who's your choice between the two?

[JMT]

Touch choice...but only because Wilt's been dead for a while.

[Sarcastic]

Wilt is better than Shaq, so I don't really see how this is debatable.

[Rooster]

Shaq with 4 rings anyday.

[32Dayz]

I personally would take Shaq.

Shaq is much better 0ffensively and always had the will to absolutely destroy his opponents in his Young and Prime years.
He is the single most Dominant 0ffensive force in the history of the league.
From 93-02 the only way you could legitimately stop him was to double and triple team him or foul him.
Even from 03-06 he was a similar force albeit slightly less Dominant.

Shaq is a better Playoff performer and Finals performer and led his teams to far more success.

Over 10 and 13 years the difference in Production and Impact really becomes to huge to ignore.
Wilt was great in his first 5 to 7 years but after that he tails off alot compared to Shaq and Jordan.

Wilt is great though and he is Right after Shaq and Jabbar on my ATCList.

Shaq. Wilt had to change his game and be traded in order to win.

[Rnbizzle]

I'm sorry but these kinda topics are so useless.. I know it's because of the lockout and all but is there really nothing better to discuss right now?

Regul8r's Wilt vs. Shaq post from Real GM
Hope he doesn't mind me reposting it.

Wilt is better than Shaq, so I don't really see how this is debatable.

What is the argument that Wilt is better and should be ahead of Shaq? Cause I don't see it.

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

People who disregard postseason play are the only ones who think it isn't close.

Better scorer, better rebounder, better passer, better defender, better blocker.

[Rooster]

Better scorer, better rebounder, better passer, better defender, better blocker.

In the 60s, that does not say a lot.

[HylianNightmare]

shaq, that overall career was stupendous

[DaPerceive]

Better scorer, better rebounder, better passer, better defender, better blocker.

I'll agree with you that Wilt was the better talent, but that doesn't mean he was the better player and should be ranked above him. I certainly don't think he should be ranked above Shaq in any all-time list. Shaq is just the completely superior post-season performer. For the regular season I would take Wilt, there is nobody I would take over Wilt in the regular season, but for the playoffs I am taking Shaq over Wilt 100 times out of 100.
