Prime Shaq vs Prime Embiid.... BEST OF 3 to 35...who wins and how?
- Thread starter geechiedan
- Start date
Shaq is too physical
Embiid don’t have the heart
Embiid don’t have the heart
Shaq is in a different class
no one thinks embiids mid range game could level the playing field??
Orlando shaq or Lakers shaq determines how lopsided this is
Wilt
If prime shack had Kobe's work ethic he would have been unstoppable. Shaq never tried to work at the level that Kobe worked at. Had he done so, had he not had that one gigantic hole in his game He would have been unstoppable.

Hall of Fame center calling out Sixers' star to deliver on games' biggest stage.
Theres a show on Shotime called Goliath that is a Wilt doc. I always "heard" all these Wilt stories so i peeped the doc. I was surprised to see how wack Wilt was. This covers all the bad in his career as well, not just the highlights and there was A LOT. He wasnt as dominant as people hype him to be. He was dominant against those plumbers but once the league started form and get peeps like Russel and Kareem....he was hella average. Peep that doc
Its almost like people forgot he played in a league with Hakeem Olajuwon.
But yes, Shaq would clown Embiid.
Yeah no doubt. and so peeps are clear, Im speaking on some street ball 1 on 1 to 11. No refs...call ur own fouls type ish
Best of 3 I think Embiid takes one...and the one game is closer than expected..
ok lets get to the real..
first lets throw out the 4 championships out because thats more TEAM effort and chemistry than one individual. Give Joel prime Kobe or Prime Wade and he gets at least 2-3 chips himself.
Now INDIVIDUALLY....Joel Embiid is a much more rounded and better basketball player than Shaquille O'Neal....yeah I said it.
Shaq was clearly a stronger more imposing and physically active player but Joel has more skills in his bag.
Yes Shaq had for 4 players on him in a real physical era of the game but thats because he had WEAKNESSES...he had no outside game and he couldnt shoot free throws so Hack-a-Shaq was a legit strategy with him.
Your not doing that with Embiid...cuz he can pop it from 15 - 25 AND drop Threes at will. Shaq wasnt doing any of that shit.
If you put Embiid in Shaq's era he is cooking EVERYONE. And you can TRY Hack-a-Joel if you want...look at his free throw stats.
pick your poison with Joel.
Shaq v Embiid would be ALOT closer than most people think.

in a 1 on 1 all shaq's gonna do is back him down and dunk.... give embiid the ball and how many ways can he score???
this is what NO ONE is talking about
shaq's career scoring highlights is nothing dunks....embiids highlights are multifaceted plays.
