    Dream outscored Shaq in every Final's game they played.

    4-0.

    If you call anyone who has witnessed Hakeem Olajuwon play a 'homer'

    you are NOT a Rockets fan

    Maybe...


    Because he's not? He's a self proclaimed Laker fan.

    It is close, but I would go with the Lakers. I do think Hakeem is the best player on either team, but I would still go with the Lakers overall.

    Definitely Lakers. Should we count the championships?

    Mikan - 7
    Chamberlain - 1 with Lakers I believe
    Jabbar - 5 with Lakers
    Shaq - 3 with Lakers

    Numbers could be slightly off, but the magnitude is what counts...

    16 versus 2

    Who's talking about the best teams? We are just talking big men.

    If you put Oscar Robertson with Big E in the early 70s there is a couple of championships. If you put Magic with Dream in the 80s!! Then the Rockets would have won all the championships the Lakers won plus all of the ones they lost!

    Right, gosh too many details. What a great opportunity to bang with one of the greats at such a young age.
