All you have to do is hack shaq. It's easier to shut down shaq than curry.

Has /pol/ gone soft?
>>63967255
Curry.
Shaq was an unbelievably dominant player in his prime, but Curry is more valuable in the current style of NBA basketball.
Would shaq still me dominate in this current fast paced NBA?
>>63967494
100% of course
he fucked GOAT defensive centers like mutombo and hakeem and robinson and zo
>>63972027
Dennis Rodman actually played the best defense on Shaq.
Look it up.
shaq every time
if i pick >shaw do i get a pill that keeps him from getting fat and lazy
>>63967330
>implying they do anything but complain on anonymous image boards
Curry.
Shaq would never get the ball with new defense rules.
FiveThirtyEight had a story today about Curry that said if Curry chucked as much as Kobr has in his career he would average 50 (LITERALLY FIFTY) points per game and it would actually make Golden State BETTER. There's no comparison between the two.
>>63966941
Apples and oranges bruh
Shaq would murder Draymond Green.
name a single center in the game today they could match up with shaq
>>63966941
Right. Kill yourself, OP.
i like how people ignore just how useless shaq was down in crunch time ... you know ... when the games really mattered? i remember him hitting 1 game winner in his entire career. penny, kobe, wade all had to carry his fat 'i'm too tall to make freethrows' ass in the 4th.
biggest waste of talent in nba history. a 7'1 350+ athletic freak and if i recall correctly never ONCE led the league in rebounding or blocks, a testament to his laziness. sabotaged 3 relationships with fellow superstars (penny, kobe, wade). showed up fat and sabotaged the lakers after the 3 peat.
fuck shaq and his facade personality. charles barkley also kicked his ass.
white chocolate steph all day.
>>63966941
curry
damn, even vlade divac was better C than o'neal
Who creates more pressure on the defense shaq or curry?
>>63981210
Each puts more pressure in their eras. Shaq was able to dominate 1v1 post ups in part due to the rules. Back then you had to be close the man you're defending otherwise it was illegal defense. It's a lot easier to bring a double team in the post in the current era, which is part of the reason post play has declined overall. Shaq would still be a killer today obviously but it was be easier to get the ball out of his hands relative to 10-20 years ago.

The big black bull
>>63967368
This desu
You can't hack-a-Curry
>>63981271
Wouldn't that just mean that shaq would create even MORE pressure in today's game?
This is a retarded comparison.
>>63974130
yep, you're right. it's crazy
>>63976876
Shaq would be MVP every year if he played in today's NBA. No center could even come close to stopping him. All of today's hybrid PF/Cs would kill themselves.
>>63983606
Not necessarily. When Shaq played he could establish deep position at will because you couldn't bring extra defenders to his side of the court. It would be much harder to get Shaq the ball in the first place in today's. While that still opens up the game for other people Curry forcing a double on the perimeter is even more dangerous. Curry doesn't need someone else to get him the ball like Shaq does. Shaq 1v1 in deep position versus Shaq attracting more attention without the ball isn't as dangerous.
>>63983728
Shaw would be completely exhausted after one shift trying to run with AD. He would not make nearly the impact he did due to fatigue. He'd have to drop a ton of weight and neutralize his (one) strength significantly.
>>63986305
You never watched Orlando Shaq did you? He was one of the best fast break Cs in the league.
>>63972027
>hakeem
"No."
Curry's ability to hit the trey is just as much of a great equalizer if not more devastating than Shaq's presence in the paint
It's a toss up imo, depends on the supporting cast as well.
>>63967353
>people consider curry elite
Curry is better than this talenteless hack
>>63986913
>people consider curry white
Shaq literally REQUIRES double and triple teams. All you need to slow down Curry is an elite defender (Kawhi Leonard) or a Good defender (Delly/T. Allen).
It's truly a toss up though because they both put insane amounts of pressure on the D.
It seems /sp/ is favoring Curry though.
>>63967255
His 4 titles would disagree with you.
>>63967368
Maybe because there are no dominant centers anymore. Imagine prime Shaw in today's nba. He would probably average 37 ppg in today's game.
>trying to use a guy like Draymond Green to stop Shaq
>>63967294
So Curry?
