I can't name anyone as big as shooq. He's the biggest player in NBA history. There have been players taller, and probably heavier, but no one ever as big. An elementary school player has more skill.
I can honestly say I'm a better ball handler, a better shooter, a better passer, a better rebounder, a better everything than him, and yet, I wouldn't stand a chance (unless we played one-on-one restricted to 18-feet and out) because he's so big and powerful (the only two reasons why he is dominant). But that's it. Take that away from him and he has nothing.
So you, my friend, have no idea what basketball skill truly is about.
P.S.
you're forgetting that Yao was a rookie, and had his moments where he absolutely schooled shooq, much like a Hakeem Olajuwon in his prime did, swiftly and thoroughly.
