And I haven't? And they haven't? You're free to have your own opinion, but don't assume that I haven't seen plenty of both players in action. Anyway, we're going to have to agree to disagree .
Maybe we should ask the question this way: As a GM, who would you rather build a team around, Penny in his prime, or Kobe at his (assuming he is not going to get any better)? As much as I hate Kobe, I would have to pick him. Penny might make other players better, but Kobe is a better clutch performer (although not at the same level as MJ). Penny is a great second option. But if your team can only have one star, you are better off by Kobe (but probably not by much). Of course, I would pick Shaq over the two of them combined.
Shaq is an idiot who thinks the world of himself. He needs to think before he talks. He doesnt make sense and makes himself look stupid. He can dominate under the basket and thats it.
The simple fact is Shaq is the best center in the NBA. Ben wallace is not. Ben Wallace is 2004 champ and shaq is not. Let Shaq say what he want wants I find his arrogance amusing. When your the best you can talk **** because theirs nobody in the league that can do anything about it, and if their is lets see them do something. He has many rings, a future hall of famer and a top five center to ever play. The only player to ever get the best of him was HAKEEM, and he admits to that. So maybe if Ben Wallace did hold a candle to him he would admit to that as well. But lets face it their is no comparision whatsoever. Keep talking Shaq until somebody can stop you.
i thought espn was the worldwide leader in sports. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=1877705 this is such old news. they had this on sportscenter, and espn.com front page headlines.
Who cares about shaq dissing Kobe and Wallace.... This is the weakest rhyme I've heard in a while. Shaq shouldn't be allow to pic up another mic ever. Side note to Shaq: Stick to what you do best, BASKETBALL and STUFFING YOUR FACE
I totally agree except for one thing. When he came into the league, Penny was just as explosive as Kobe to the basket. Penny was Lebron James before Lebron James. A Magic Johnson type of guard with explosiveness. The young Kobe/Penny comparisons are very valid, with Penny being a better passer. Kobe is probably a better scorer and better defender, but Penny was a up and coming superstar before the injuries. How soon we forget how good some of the guys were.
