This isnt necessarily true. How could anyone really know how he would be without Shaq. If youre going to say that, then isnt it safe to say that Kobe would be better without Shaq because he wouldnt have another dominate player on his team. Maybe shaq is holding kobe back from being what he really could possibly be, because Kobe has to allow Shaq to do his thing too.
Shaq takes 20 shots a game (gets fouled on nearly half of them) and scores over 21 a game. If he wasnt there, who would score those points?
I agree about Scottie and MJ, but everyones different. You cant base what 2 players would/could do off of what 2 different players did.
