Prime Shaq went to 4 finals, won 3, and went to 6 if i stretch out that prime from 95-06. Literally, stopping shaq was not an option during that stretch, only duncan was competitive and he was a PF.... dude should be #1 on everybody's list

He beat teams with rosters like Wilt, west, Baylor, Goodrich etc

D. Robinson is too low on some of these lists.

Russell went to 8 straight when there were only 8 teams in the league, that needs an asterisk

You're a terrible poster.

the teams were stacked tho.

 

[Brozay]

the teams were stacked tho.

Not as stacked as the Celtics

 

[TrebleMan]

If we're talking who'd be the best in their prime:
Shaq
Hakeem
Kareem
Duncan
Wilt
Yao
David Robinson
Ewing

Just going by what I've seen/eye test.

If we're weighing in accolades, then it'll be a little more re-arranged.

Not as stacked as the Celtics

you can say that about every dynasty tho.
