How close is DeAndre to Shaq w.o. the skill?

[BigNBAfan]

Dude has crazy athletic ability that reminds me of a young shaq, but that's as far as it goes. Rookie Shaq had ten fold skills over this guy, but it got me thinking thread title.

Aside from the skill, I think he actually might be less agile than Shaq and significantly less strong. Shaq is a tier or three above DJ.

DeAndre is 6-9 1/2, and weighs maybe 275.

Shaq was a shade under 7-1 and weighed between 300-350+ in his career.

Shaq's footwork >>>>>>>>>>>> your mother >>>>>>>> DeAndre Jordan's FT shot >>>>>>>>> Jameer Nelson's post game >>>>>> LeBron's hairline >>>>>>>>>> you >>>>>>>> Shaq.

Shaq had a 35-36 inch vertical, DeAndre's probably pushing 40+. He's one of the best jumping big men in league history and he can get up off one or two feet. Incredible leaping ability for a man his size. Other than that, Shaq is easily his physical superior. Far bigger, stronger, more agile and coordinated, better footwork, better reflexes and better touch.

[Akrazotile]

In a word? Not close.

[nashwade]

as close as Taylor Swift to Kate Upton without the goods

Javelle McGee is closer to Shaq than DeAndre Jordan in terms of size/athleticism. Jordan is basically Dwight Howard minus 20 lbs of muscle and a hook shot.
