All-Time Lakers have 4 guys in the All-Time Top 10.

Only Bulls player in Top 10 is Jordan.

This article isn't worth much if the starting line up is Grant over Gilmore.

Shaq started this on his instagram account. He proposed the teams/lineups and declared the Lakers would win by 50. The article is just reporting it.

That makes sense then...Shaq is an idiot after all.

[ImKobe]

I'd run a line-up of

Magic
West
Kobe
Worthy
Shaq

Bulls get DESTROYED.

I don't know about 50 but it would be total annihilation that's for sure. :oldlol:

I'd start

Magic

shaq is probably my favorite player ever, but scottie body-bagged him here. :lol

ofc, shaq can't respond because, really, what is there to say? pippen took a bulls franchise by the horns, a franchise that had been 1-9 under jordan's leadership, flipped it, and helped make a reigning dynasty with pjax.

pippen gets drafted- bulls finally advanced out of the first round
pippen becomes an allstar caliber player- the bulls compete in conference finals
pippen becomes a superstar- the bulls win 6 championships under his leadership and defensive abilities (arguably the greatest defender at his position, ever).

underrated. under appreciated. one of the most versatile players ever - scottie pippen :applause:

[SHAQisGOAT]

Obvious hyperbole but, tbh, Lakers' all-time squad beats any other team's all-time squad, at least on paper. Only the Celtics could compete with them, and I think they'd have better chemistry...

Such a Shaq comeback.

[mehyaM24]

shaq trying to save face. c'mon big fella :roll:

he's right to say he was batman though. took a miami heat team that generally didn't much success in the playoffs, and made them finals bound.


Everything starts with dealing with Shaquille," Dallas coach Avery Johnson says.

O'Neal has not only played smartly and efficiently but at times has been as dominant as ever. Despite double-teams, sometimes when he doesn't have the ball, he is averaging 14.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists and shooting 66.7%.

"Everyone knows that he's 34 years old and he's not the young Shaq-be-nimble, Shaq-be-quick, but we know we wouldn't be at this point without him,"Wade says. "He's the biggest part of what we have here in Miami."

:bowdown:

[mehyaM24]

Stating random facts out of context doesn't mean you aren't a troll. Retard.

might want to learn what "context" means random guy.
pippen was factually named the leader and captain of the bulls, via pjax - and he was also their best defensive player. another fact.

This is true, and it's crimnal how little credit he gets for the Miami success. Him and Wade were co-first-fiddles. Shaq was definitely not some backseat Robin.

Shaq should've just laughed off Scottie's comment and moved on, there was no comeback for that. Now he set himself up for the Wade finals MVP and Kobe 2 titles A.D. (After Diesel) pics/comments.

Scottie had the mic drop moment in that battle.

Shaq is very insecure. I know the fact he was carried in Miami hurts his ego every time he hears Wade's name.

[mehyaM24]

Well Wade carrying Shaq didn't happen in L.A.

probably not, but shaq was definitely up there with wade in-terms of impact. how shaq was defended and approached by opposing coaches matters...a lot.

"everything starts with him", wade stated

similarly, wade never had the impact (rapm) lebron did in miami, so i don't get the comparison being brought up.

Shaq's reply doe :oldlol:

He does get underrated. Dude was still one of the elites at his position, and had tremendous impact with his defense and rebounding.

Pippens probably sulking right now.. but it is funny how shaq can not only push your buttons, but be witty/obnoxious with it at the same time. :lol

[Soundwave]

A few thoughts

- They wouldn't win by 50. That isn't how basketball works, otherwise Team USA should have every gold medal, the 04 Lakers should've trounced the Pistons, the Spurs should've been rolled by the Heat, etc. etc.

- What exactly is the relevance of the discussion anyway? It's not Jordan or Pippen's fault or even an issue that the Bulls management sucked before Jordan got there and has sucked after they got there. Obviously the Lakers will have the superior roster.

- Shaq is a bit of a b*tch made mofo though. He gets a big pass for dumping a perfectly good situation in Orlando to go running to LA after 3-4 seasons, when LeBron gets killed for leaving Cleveland after 7 seasons. Double standard much? And the worst part of it was he left for stupid reasons ... to make dumb movies like Kazaam. He totally gets a complete pass for this, lol, I've always just found it funny. And the icing on that cake is it was Jordan-Pippen who kicked his ass in Orlando so bad that he went running to LA.

When you're getting paid $20 million, life is good anywhere. Orlando is pretty f*cking nice too. Vast parts of LA are a sh*t hole too, I've lived there for 3 years there's nothing magical about it. And movies like Kazaam :oldlol: , ok if you say so.

I'm just saying it's a double standard galore, if Jordan went running to the Knicks after 3-4 years with the Bulls or LeBron did the same to the Cavs people would lose their minds, but Shaq somehow (probably because he acts like a clown in public) gets away with a lot of stuff other athletes would not.

LOL, I've lived in Los Angeles for several years and went to all the "hot spots". Large parts of the city are a total sh*thole. Even the touristy spots like Hollywood Blvd, the Graumann's area is alright, but like literally one block down it turns into a darkened toilet with homeless people that you can smell the piss off of from an intersection away.

Smog, terrible traffic, most people with money in California choose not to live in LA proper, either they're in the Newport area or chose to live in the San Bernardino Valley or something like that well away from LA for a reason.

Florida is not lacking for women either and the beaches are better.

[QUOTE=IllegalD]The All Time Lakers squad would murder pretty much any other All Time "Insert Team" squad, with the exception of the All Time Celtics squad. That would be the only team that could hang with the Lakers.

no he's not.

but yes, having peak shaq and magic on your team would prove to be too much.
In my opinion he is, by consensus he is too. IDGAF if you don't think he is, you're a biased Bran stan with an agenda to throw shade at MJ. I can't respect a poster who's main shtick at ISH is to downplay a legend. Da fuq outta here fggot

[Harison]

Shaq only looks at offense, and obviously LA there heads and shoulders better.

BUT he ignores other factors. Bulls would have an insane defense, while Lakers D wasnt that good. This factor alone would make blowout by 50 pts impossible.

Bulls also more clutch and more gritty team, with GOAT.

Bottom line, LA would definitely win the series, maybe even a sweep, but it would much closer than Shaq thinks.

i don't think you know what a "consensus" is, because he's far from that.

russell, kareem and even magic (with respect to his competition) all have legitimate cases.

i'm here to discuss hoops dude, not talk about your fanaticism with one player.

Consensus means a majority, the majority of GOAT lists have MJ number 1, stop pretending that's news to you.

I don't have a fanaticism with MJ, I never start MJ threads. You OTOH have an obsession with tearing down MJ for obvious reasons. Get outta here fuccboi

actually "consensus" is unanimity. saying he is rated GOAT by the majority is an overstatement as well.

i shouldn't expect someone with "MJ GOAT, U MAD?" as their signature to know anything beyond jordan though, so that's my fault.

Sit your ass down, fggt. Grown folks are talking.


Anyways, Pip comes back at Shaq:

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2527045-shaquille-oneal-says-all-time-lakers-team-would-beat-bulls-legends-by-50-points

[Soundwave]

Bulls would make a game of it. They are vastly better defensively so all that cute run n' gun fast break stuff would be shut down immediately and they proved very adept at confusing Shaq and causing turn overs if you just predictably dump the ball into the post. So that's not the game changer in and of itself either.

I think the Lakers would have some issues with Jordan/Pippen/Rodman/DRose's athleticism too. That's a very athletic, fast team.

Beyond that while more talented, the Lakers don't have many players that play well without the ball and a lot of guys would pout about not getting their touches.

Shaq/Kobe were already crying about their touches, not sure how they'd deal with Kareem and West and Worthy wanting shots too. Magic would have to crack down on guys whining about not getting enough touches.

The Lakers would win probably because of their bench, but 5-on-5, best vs. best it wouldn't be the landslide people think. All-Star teams aren't necessarily the best basketball teams.

Little boy going THE-sauris :oldlol:

Unanimous: COMPLETE agreement
Consensus: general agreement

I hope you're smart enough to see the difference.

MJ is the consensus GOAT. Ask any group of 100 people who the best basketball player of all time is and Jordan will be the GOAT overwhelmingly. That's what a consensus is.

Are all 100 people going to say Jordan (thus is it going to be unanimous)? No, because there's always going to be those who respect Russell's rings or Kareem's career accomplishments. Then there's fvcktard teenagers who make it their life goal tearing down Jordan and lying to themselves because they've never watched him play and are enamored with a current player :confusedshrug: :confusedshrug:

Keep deflecting fggot, consensus isn't unanimous. You just salty af that most lists have MJ as GOAT, that's why you're so obsessed with creating anti MJ threads, like that ridiculous troll thread asking if MJ was one of the biggest losers in NBA history. Just that premise alone was laughable and pathetic and should be banworthy for stupidity alone :yaohappy:

the only "consensus" thing about mj is that he's one of the greatest scorers, and that casuals like yourself, who probably watched his youtube highlights and suddenly became a fan of his, overrate him to absurd levels. your knowledge of the game outside of jordan is lacking....severely

I've been watching basketball longer than you have been alive, son.

The fact that you try so hard to tear MJ down shows how salty you are. If you're confident he's not the GOAT, why do you try so hard at tearing him down? I don't go around making thread after thread knocking any certain player like you do. That only shows desperation on your part and just how much MJ lives in your retarded head.

Next time you make an anti jordan thread, I'll remind you and point out just how salty and mad you are about the GOAT :oldlol:

[Soundwave]

I don't think people realize how good Artis Gilmore was either. 7 foot 2, 290 pounds virtually no body fat, strong as an ox, he caused Kareem a lot of headaches head to head

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsNoZjdizU0

Gilmore posterizes Kareem:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBFpWJAiAI4

6-time All-Star. No he's not as good as Kareem, but it wasn't like he was some scrub either. He was a 21/10 center.

[aj1987]

Why are people saying Scottie wrecked Shaq, while it was the other way around? Dude would've been ringless if he didn't play with the GOAT. Heck, he probably wouldn't have even made the HOF. Shaq was comparing the teams and Scottie failed miserably at understanding that. Shaq did WRECK him with that sidekick photo though.

Im not particularly an MJ fan either, but it is a damn near consensus around the WORLD that Jordan is the best player of all time...and its not even that close.

You named 3 and possibly a 4th who don't have Jordan as their GOAT. And one of them (Isiah) is a salty little bitch who's jealous. Same reason he tried to say Bird would just be another good player if he was black. Ask 100 more and see what they say

[kshutts1]

If we're actually doing an all-time Bulls lineup, and not the one that Shaq mentioned, wouldn't it be...

Rose
Jordan
Pippen
Brand
Gilmore

Terrible, terrible spacing. That team would definitely need to put in bad players that were snipers just to have a shot. But that's the best at every position the Bulls have ever had.

Full team would like be...

Rose/NVL/Kerr (shooting)
Jordan/Sloan
Pippen/Kukoc
Brand/Grant/Rodman
Gilmore/Noah

That is probably a better defensive team than any other franchise can put forth. But there is almost no spacing. Would be pretty ugly on offense. Might have to add in Love and Walker just for more offense. Take out Rodman and Brand or Grant.

[West-Side]

Shaquille O'Neal
Kareem Abdul Jabbar
Elgin Baylor
Kobe Bryant
Magic Johnson

They would win a 7 game series, sure. Maybe even have a couple of blow outs but I don't ever see anyone beating an all-time Bulls by 50 because of their perimeter defense. They also had Gilmore & Rodman up front. In terms of depth; LAL are way better though.

Gilmore, Rodman, Pippen & Jordan is an incredible core though.

Incredible team all-time, but Wilt at the bench: :no: way in hell, he's arguably the GOAT peak player.

Your right.

I didn't mean it as a slight against Wilt. It's just that I gave priority in the starting lineup and the team to the players from the 83 championship squad.

I suppose since that's the team that comes to my mind first when I think of the 76ers.

I even went beyond the 15 player roster limit, because it was hard to leave some players out. (did the same on the Bulls one).
