Some horrible lists I'm seeing. Here's the real order:

Shaq/Hakeem
Hakeem/Shaq

-HUGE GAP-

Moses

Wilt
Kareem

Russell

Kareem was better than them all.

1. Wilt
2. Shaq
3. Hakeem
4. Kareem
5. Russel
6. Moses

[~LA's fine$t~]

1. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
2. Wilt Chamberlain
3. Shaquille O'Neal
4. Bill Russell
5. Hakeem Olajuwon
6. Moses Malone

[Q.E.C]

Hakeem should be 1st every time.

hakeem
russell



wilt gets punished for his gaudy stats. However the only way to rate a player is to rate them by individual categories and against their era. That is why wilt is number 1 and russell is number 6. Russell was just a part of the pie , wilt was the whole pie. Also Moses and Shaq are severely underrated. Shaq is unbelievably dominant.

Level 1 - Wilt Kareem

Level 1a - Hakeem Russell Shaq

Level 2 - Malone

[fefe]

Level 1 - Wilt Kareem

Level 1a - Hakeem Russell Shaq

Level 2 - Malone

Now that is getting close to my opinion...
Here is what i think:

Level 1: Wilt, Russell, Kareem, Hakeem, Shaq
Level 1b: Malone

On level1 you can make an arguement for all 5, as greatest C of all time:

Wilt: Best stat averages ever, MDE until his time.
Russell: Winningest C of all time, best defender ever.
Kareem: longest tenure high level domination, best stat totals ever, and the hook shot of course
Hakeem: most skilled C ever.
Shaq: Wilt part II., MDE, biggest freak of nature ever,

Moses could matchup well with all the others, but he is level B, because he doesn't have a case for GCOAT.

Shaq to those other guys " tell me how my ass tastes."

Kareem was better, Wilt was better, Hakeem was better and Russell was better.

3-Hakeem & Shaq
4-Moses
5-Russell but if Sabonis was playing in the NBA before his injuries in the 80s he`d be 4...

Wilt 5th and Kareem 3rd, with Hakeem being 1st? I'd like to hear some explanations for this (apart from the fact that Hakeem is one of your favorite players)...
