Hakeem didn't have one if the greatest players of all time, top 5, as his partner for half his career. Hakeem was a better defender, especially rim. Shot a better percentage & Kareem's production started to fall around the same amount of years as Hakeem's while being on a loaded Lakers while Hakeem had to carry Houston alone more than a decade of his 18.

What’s so cool about Hakeem is that they say that he had very low efficacy fluctuations between opposing teams (like how certain players did great or lousy against different teams/defenders). The reason given is that for him “Very difficult shots” were typical shots for him lol. So it makes sense, as a defender your goal is to force people into “Bad shots”, so if Hakeem’s actual bread & butter shots WERE “Bad shots” already then that would explain the great consistency regardless of who was defending him. I suppose Steph would be like that as well.

You have that backwards. Wilt Chamberlain is easily the best ever. Most skilled? How do you judge skilled? I have stats you have your opinion. And one thing to consider I don't think anyone who didn't play basketball until 17 i believe, is more skilled than other professionals playing it their whole lives. He is my favorite center of all time but I don't think of him passing the ball or hitting an outside jumper when I picture him playing. Do you? Then how can he be the most skilled? Moses was playing professionally when he was 17 and he was the man who taught Akeem how to play the low post. He must have had some skills.
