Hakeem was a monster on both ends. However, Moses was a beast of his own. Moses won 3 MVPs when Kareem (1) was in his prime, and when Bird and Magic were in their primes (2).

He averaged respectively 25/18 for one, 31/15 for the next one, and 25/15 for the last one.

He swept the 83 lakers in the finals, averaging 26/18 while outplaying Kareem and winning the Finals MVP

Also, one more thing and this is by no means, me attempting to disrespect the late Bean. But you guys don't think Moses had a better career than he did?

1 FMVP 3 MVP vs 2 FMVPs 1 MVP :confusedshrug:

What is mindblowing is the fact that he is not in people's top 10 list.

Hakeem had to dodge Jordan in order to win his rings, just saying. BEAST NONETHELESS

1 FMVP 3 MVP vs 2 FMVPs 1 MVP :confusedshrug:


2 rings as the main man vs 1 ring as the main man :confusedshrug:
6 All-NBA 1st team selections vs 4 All-NBA 1st team selections :confusedshrug:
2 DPOY vs 0 DPOY :confusedshrug:
5 All-defensive 1st team selections vs 1 All-defensive 1st team selection :confusedshrug:

Moses was a better rebounder, and that's about it.

Hakeem was more skilled I get it. However, I'm taking Moses offensively regardless.

Hakeem just like Jordan couldn't win in the 80s. Meanwhile, Moses was a dominant player and a winner. He also won in the 70s, beating KAJ (beating is an understatement. He averaged 25.8 ppg 18 rpg 2.0 apg & 1.5 bpg and then won MVPs during the Bird/Magic era as well.

Moses formed a super-team to win his only title in his career. He wasn't the defender Hakeem was, nor did he have the wide array of moves, shooting, or passing ability that Hakeem had. And when you compare playoff performances, it's not even close.

And I love the notion that Hakeem dodged MJ in the finals, yet who was the one that retired in his peak? :lol
