Shaq was 90% power Embiid has way more skill. This nikka is shooting 43% from 3 and his post game is hakeemesque and he can shake and bake nikkas off the dribble :mindblown:

Young Shaq was power, but he became a skilled player on the Lakers. But even young Shaq had a handle, quickness, a was a helluva passer

Ain't disrespecting Shaq I'm just saying Embiid has more to his game. Shaq was more dominant but Embiids future is just as bright.
No it isn't. It's nowhere near as bright as Shaq's was. Shaq didn't start his career hurt. He didn't start his career playing in six minute stints. He didn't start his career not playing the second half of back to back games. Come on now.

Your referencing injuries im saying if Embiids foot has fully healed and his minutes restrictions are lifted next year his potential is just as big.

You could not have seen a young SHAQ play in Orlando.

We prolly will NEVER see anything like it again.

A 7 foot 300 pound SUPER ATHLETE..he was more than just power then. He was light on his feet, Quick as hell and an amazing passer for a Big.

I understand SHAQ can be a bytch. But to say this young nikka in Philly
will ever be better than SHAQ is just:dwillhuh:
No team would have an answer for rookie SHAQ right now.

This nikka dropped 32, 7 and 4 playing 28 minutes last night we not talking bout Andrew muthafukking Bynum here breh this nikka is the real deal. Once that limit restrictions is taken off next year dude could legit average 30+ points, 10+ boards and 4+ blocks while anchoring one of the leagues best defenses.

Of course Shaq is better than Embiid , U comparing Year 1 to a fully fleshed career.
:hhh:
And why do yall keep saying watch young Shaq when somebody brings up a facet of Embiid game dat Shaq never developed. Embiid has range to da 3 , superior ball handling and passing , and can guard da 3 point line already as a rookie. No amount of watching young Shaq will change da fact dat Shaq jus didnt have dat in his game.
:shaq2:
Da game is becoming way more skill based , Shaq and all heavy usage back to da basket centers will eventually be looked at similiar to how we look at George Mikan. A blind person can see dat , Marc Gasol out here pulling up from Curry Range , Jokic is running da break and displaying ballhandling and passing like a PG , as a fan of da game u can appreciate da legends but still acknowledge dat dis aint da same game we have enjoyed back in da 2000s. Some yall need get yall mind right.
