    We all know that Shaq respects Yao because of Great Wall's ability to go there and fight with him but that quote really surprised me

    Shaq was never very good at math. However, he's really good with money.

    Shaq knows, he saw it first hand. It was short, but damn Yao's prime was nasty...

    exactly.
    only a YOF would think that yao is top 5
    except shaq pretty much just saying it coz yao sucks up to him his whole life.
    do you agree? lol
    YOF like you on the other hand.... hmmm

    he's not saying that he was a top five center... he's saying he had the potential to be...

    it's like saying Sam Bowie could have been a contender... pure speculation based on height and ability

    MFW a forum poster knows what Shaq is thinking
    MFW a forum poster knows more about a center than Shaq who actually played with all time greats
