Also, Stu Scott can't make those comments - he does play-by-play. I'd expect that sort of junk from Jon Barry, though, because he's always trying to say something controversial so people will pay attention to him.

In that respect, I think Walton's comments are completely legit. It's not a question of who was a better player. Imagine if it was Jon Barry who made those comments, or even Stuart Scott.

College doesn't count for anything. Shaq has every right to criticize Walton - and he's right that he's a better player than Walton ever was. Walton making the NBA's 50 Greatest has everything to do with his unfulfilled potential and little to do with his accomplishments on the court.
