    These guys both lead their teams to the NBA Finals.
    The greatest accomplishments for any Orlando team.

    Shaq lead the league in scoring in 94-95
    Howard lead the league in rebounding in 08-09

    I was torn on who to vote for, both are amazing players in Magic uniforms.

    I ended up voting for Howard because he actually won a game for them in the Finals while Shaq's Magic team got swept by us.

    Neither one was/is good enough (at the time for Shaq) to carry their team to glory like a regular "best player ever".

    that's true, but I feel that if the 95 Rockets played the 09 Magic, that would also be a sweep, but the games would be blowouts.

    Even if you don't talk about the center matchup, who the hell is going to stop Drexler?

    Rafer Alston/Courtney Lee/Reddick/injured Nelson?

    vs a healthy Kenny Smith/Drexler/Sam Cassell

    95 Robert Horry was the best Robert Horry ever in the playoffs, he played D, hit clutch 3s. No way Hedo or Rashard could handle him

    Hasn't proven to be a closer of playoff series.
    Has history of injuries.


    A good player, I'd probably trade Cuttino Mobley and Steve Francis for him. :p

    Shaq for now but I think Howard will win at least one ring so as long as howard stays with the magic he'll top the list

    we all know who the best player on the magic was

    So far, Shaq (at the same point of their careers) would viciously murder Howard. Dwight is on par with him physically, but is way too soft. Shaq came into the league looking to destroy.
