    I wasn’t old enough to see shaq in his prime but it was amazing to see a glimpse of what everyone calls the most dominant when i saw this game live. There is just literally nothing you can do with him, he was so big and strong and would post up as close to the basket as possible. He was literally a cheat code. I think kobe was right, if he had a better work ethic and took better care of his body he would have been the goat

    This is a 37 year old shaq. Dominating. If anyone remembers shaq got in better shape in Phoenix. He averaged almost 19 points per game. All because he was in good shape. Now imagine if he was always in shape?? He could of easily averaged 18 points in his final season 2 years later. He also won co mvp of the all star game this year with kobe. Why?? Because he was in good shape. Not great shape. Just good shape.

Teams front lines are similar to this Raptors squad with two stretch big men and Shaq had them two speechless. Shaq made the entire nba rethink and retool their rosters. If you had plans to run into the Lakers in the playoffs you HAD to have a team designed to cover shaq in this type of scenario. This is old worn down version I couldn’t imagine what it was like from 99-2004 as he progressively got bigger finally topping the scales at 380lbs in 04. People forget man

      Everyone knows if you can’t defend multiple positions now and be more versatile as in not just scoring outside of posting up. But play making and the ability to facilitate if his game isn’t flourishing will keep him at maybe 15 min a game in my opinion. That’s like 5 pts a few rebounds

      His body was his strength but also his weakness, Shaq played bully ball his game isn't supposed to last that long.

      If he took care of his body, practiced and trained like MJ or Kobe, he would've been the top 5 players of all time and won 3 more. Also if Lakers hired a better coach earlier, they surrounded Shaq with talent during his late 20s but the Lakers couldn't get past the Jazz and get to the final until Phil Jackson came

    Shaq a little cross-eyed in the lineup, who's responsible?

    La scelta dell'allenatore di toronto in difesa ad inizio partita? Marcatura di Bargnani su Shaq.🥴😐
