Hakeem or Shaq?

[LeGoatJames]

I have both and not sure which to start

have the Lakers Shaq


I feel like one day one of them is getting all the rebounds and the next day they're not grabbing anything or playing defense

[nba2kpdx]

I start both. Hakeem at PF.

I prefer Hakeem as he is much more skilled, but Shaq is totally a beast!

if you just want rebounds go with wilt. but those two are pretty equal in my opinion. russels better tho lol

Hakeem because he has 95 stamina.

Shaq wears out too quickly.

yea I pretty much only care for rebounding , defense, ability to lay it back in after offensive rebound


I'n the dozens of hours I've played I have never seen anyone go to a center frequently

they miss shots too easily , if you play any defense at all the centers will miss

Hakeem is an animal. At times he is wasted when played a fast break twitch defense player though (have to pass out quick b/c of spacing)

Hakeem actually has the highest speed and quickness ratings at the center position besides Bill Russell.

I don't mind facing fastbreak teams with either of those two on the court, because they can keep pace pretty well.
