Default Car shakeing..Help please

When i take off kind of hard,my steering wheel shakes a little and when i'm braking from about 80 miles per hour my steering wheels shakes alot.
I was told my rotors may need changing.
I'm going to do that,but what else could be causing the problem.

Thanks

It could be a partially warped rotor, but it could also just be you ABS activating itself.
