Julius Erving Is Shaquille O’Neal’s Pick As Best Ever

Shaq needs to put himself in an episode of Shaqtin' a fool. Dr. J was a special player and fun to watch, but he's not the best ever.

I really never have attached to the idea of one player is the best ever. Time and circumstance has created some of the players and their accomplishments which may have made them look better than they actually were. I do agree that there is a large group that belongs in the top twenty to thirty though and perhaps he is one of them but Russell won a lot more championships than any one and Michael Jordan retired at the top of his game.

Not even close. I love J but he dominated the ABA and MIGHT have been the best in the NBA one season.

Shaq must have watched The Fish that saved Pittsburgh

You must have blacked out for 2001-2003

When Shaq chose MJ over LeBron: Yes Shaq you're 100% right!
When Shaq chose Dr. J over MJ and LeBron: GTFO here Shaq!

I am talking about the second time he quit. If had played those two years in between each three peat, he would have had 8 rings. The last time he played for the Wizfarts - He came back to old and to late. In his prime, Michael was the best and Shaq is full of shit as usual

I did.

Whenever somebody mentions the Wizard years, I'm all like.....


Mike went out like Elway with that push-off * coughs* clutch jumper over Russell.

He also picked Kobe over everyone.

And as far as best Lakers bigman in history he picked everyone at one time or another. Including Kwame.

Shaq has been doing some hardcore drugs the last couple months with some comments. Love the guy, but settle down big man.

Dr J was my favorite player as a kid, but there's no way he was the best ever. Heck, when Barkley joined the Sixers after they drafted him he said Julius wasn't the best player on the team. According to Barkley, Andrew Toney was.

Shaq is just trying to be different.

You hate him because he was a great player who drove the Celtics nuts.

In 1983 my Dad took me to see the Lakers and 76ers in Atlanta at the old Omni.

I just remember standing down near courtside and Kareem walked right past us. Being that young and seeing a 7' 2" dude the first time was like seeing a circus freak.

Darrel "Alien From the Planet Lovetron" Dawkins was doing 360s in warmups and wowing the crowd then 'Nique and Dr. J came out and were doing windmills and tomahawks.

I just caught a bit of the 1987 All Star Game on NBA TV. Dr. J looked like he was 50 years old.
