Video: Shaq says without hesitation he and Kobe would beat LeBron and Anthony Davis
Shaquille O’Neal was a guest on “Fallon Tonight” Monday and offered a convincing opinion about how he and former Lakers teammate Kobe Bryant would stack up against current Lakers duo LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
Jimmy Fallon asked Shaq if the big man thought he and Kobe could beat LeBron and AD. Shaq answered without hesitation and stated his answer as if it were fact.

He’s absolutely right: who would guard him? LeBron or Davis couldn’t stop him.
During his prime, it took a rotation of three big men who could offer 18 combined fouls to send Shaq to the free throw line as the only way to slow down the center. The only time I would go against Shaq would be if you’re matching a young version of him up against Hakeem, because Olajuwon won that.
Lakers fans, show everyone who runs LA with this great T-shirt:
