Shaq would hold it down in the paint but Joker would tear his team apart. He spreads the floor too much. Y’all not seeing that 56% from deep? Shaq don’t got an answer for that and at some point he’s gonna have to walk up to the arc and try to guard… that’s when cut city is gonna eat. Keep Shaq out the perimeter and the rest is a dub.
Shaq gonna foul out tryna guard Joker anyways. Jokic can just Larry Bird it, in his face all game for free. And even in the paint, Joker dominates everyone in this era. Literally doing Shaq things to a 2x DPOY….
@@ziginaigra Well Gobert is multiple DPOY and was more than multiple times humiliated by Jokic. Since 2020, Jokic is averaging 26/11/9 with 60% shooting against Gobert.
@@infosignalmarketing than just show u how u cant play defense with current rules..no hand checking no physicality+paint is wide open with 3 def sec in zone defense..i think jokic would have more problems with shaq if they play in 90s than vs gobert now
@@ziginaigra You are talking about the guy who is one of most unpredictable basketball players in history and one of the most intelligent for sure. No doubt Shaq would destroy Jokić in offense also, because thats fucking Shaq, but for sure Jokić would play with him vice-versa no matter of the rules.
Shaq really gassing himself. He was not Hakeem or Duncan as a post defender, not even close. So many centers ate him up in the paint during his career and so would Jokic.
There's a problem in this thinking. Shaq recently compared Nikola to Tim Duncan. Well, Shaq played Tim Duncan 62 times in his career and Tim Duncan got the better of him averaging 24 points, 12.5 rebounds and 2 blocks against Shaq. Yes Tim Duncan is a better defender then Jokic, but I doubt Jokic's #s would be too below this against Shaq. Jokic is crafty and would fool Shaq plenty of times. He's also a better passer than Duncan and would average a ton of assists.
@joceja23Duncan had the ball less. You can see their average touches per game and Duncan’s numbers are insane for how little he actually had the ball in his hands. Shaq had the ball almost every play….
@@chukwudifuagbasi4373 I can’t argue with that, Shaq the most dominant to ever grace the hardwood. Jokic doesn’t have that Hakeem defense so Shaq is gonna eat in the paint all day. If he can pick up his defense I can see Jokic being a better matchup for Shaq but as of now he’s not the best on that end of the floor.
1 on 1 Jokic needs his teammates to score of Shaq, pick n roll. Shaq doesn't need anyone's help. He'll just back him down and dunk all day. 2 different type of Centers. Both are great in their own way
Shaq for sure like he mentioned here though could effectively eliminate one part of Jokic's offensive arsenal - the bully ball scoring down low. Shaq is the one guy Jokic cant move
You're not guarding anything shaq. Who did you shut down on defense in your career? Tim Duncan ate your lunch on the daily. You think you could guard Jokic?
As much as I love Shaq, Jokic still finding a way to drop 30. Shaq would probably get a couple T’s because he would be so pissed he wouldn’t be able to guard Jokic.
Hakeem was on another lever than Jokic. Jokic has no footwork and is slow as hell. Jokic is a horrible post player. Shaq would have him in foul trouble in the first quarter alone.
Aint no way shaq is running up and down with jokic😂😂😂😂😂 He would contest a couple of shots the first 3 minutes and then jokic would start scoring easy buckets cause shaq is not running back on defense. We are talking about a 7ft steph curry
Jokic is not scoring 30 on shaq. Plus, shaq was good as running the floor. Yall keep making up stuff shaq can't do which he can do you actually look it up.
@saddamHUSSEIN31 Lakers Shaq was coming down the court throwing alleys and no look passes. Yall don't know what yall taking about. This is one of many. 🤣🤣🤣 ruclips.net/video/F0GmzATeQ1o/видео.html
Joker is tight. But Shaq is a bad man.

Shaq not guarding Jokic in anyway or form he’d have stops ofc but Jokic is still eating in that paint he’s too skilled.
Shaq’s best defense was his offense
he avg more blocks than rudy gobert

Jokic cant guard shaq and shaq cant guard jokic
But shaq is gonna get in foul trouble while jokic will be knocking down them free throws

shaq did not guard duncan very often. he battled more with robinson.
The thing is, Tim was not a center.

Jokic won't outplay shaq scoring wise but he is too smart.would prolly still find a way to have 18 assists

Funny how Shaq still bringing up Big Country! For a relatively average career, Reeves really had some skill, although just for a flash.
Shaq would have to come out of the paint because Jokic can shoot. Jokic would have the same stats in any era.
1 on 1 Jokic needs his teammates to score of Shaq, pick n roll. Shaq doesn't need anyone's help. He'll just back him down and dunk all day.
2 different type of Centers. Both are great in their own way
Maybe better comparison is Giannis vs Shaq, cuz both are unstoppable at the rim.
Shaq used to block Patrick Ewing shot at will !
That is where Nikola's intellect comes in knowing his opponent strengths and weaknesses. Shaq: Nikola can see reaction before his opponent react.
It's not playing harder. It's playing smarter
and because of that he can take you in the post
Shaq dominated against smart players and smart coaches ! Jokic is no different !
Why do they constantly disrespect Jokic. Comparing him to Vlade Divac? Divac was a good player but Jokic is a generational talent.
Foreign, white, boring?
@@Amor1990 more skilled, more intelligent, much better, more fun.race is not important, nation is, and he is a red-blooded Serb
I think this is pretty easy, each would destroy the other because neither is a great defender.
Lies. Shaq was a beast on defense.
Shaq for sure like he mentioned here though could effectively eliminate one part of Jokic's offensive arsenal - the bully ball scoring down low. Shaq is the one guy Jokic cant move
shaq is like cousins w/ 3s. on the other hand jokic is jokic. basketball is a team play not individuality.
You're not guarding anything shaq. Who did you shut down on defense in your career? Tim Duncan ate your lunch on the daily. You think you could guard Jokic?
depends on rules.
in today's rules shaq would get 5 foul in 5 minutes ;-)
Neither could guard each other stop it
Bro, shaq couldn’t even guard big country lmao
As much as I love Shaq, Jokic still finding a way to drop 30. Shaq would probably get a couple T’s because he would be so pissed he wouldn’t be able to guard Jokic.
I’m sorry Shaq but coming from someone named after you… you’d be BBQ chicken to The Joker
Joker would destroy Shaq the way Hakeem did him in Orlando.
immagine jokic guarding LA shaq.. c'mon man
Hakeem was on another lever than Jokic. Jokic has no footwork and is slow as hell. Jokic is a horrible post player. Shaq would have him in foul trouble in the first quarter alone.
@@DarkDarkXIVwrong don’t try again
Hakeem in his very prime faced a 24 year shaq old shaq. If it was 99/01 shaq he would’ve get plumed
@@DarkDarkXIV the absolute most casual take ive ever seen
O Neilovic
Shaq would be exhausted and shell shocked just like the times he guarded Hakeem and Timmy.
Jokic not on Hakeem or Duncan level bro
@@quentisbentley8629jokic has the footwork of hakeem he his a better passer than hakeem shaq would get destroyed from the passing alone
Shaq would be too slow for him
You’re crazy
1v1 I've got Shaq, but surround these 2 with teams of 70 overalls and it's a Joker W all the way.
Aint no way shaq is running up and down with jokic😂😂😂😂😂
