Shaq and the Hulkster

TNT needs to hire Mitch Kupchak so he can get rid of Shaq again. He’s been horrible on Inside The NBA.

Deadspin with some excerpts from Shaq’s new book.
I also heard today that Shaq tells the story of how, during his Miami years, he threw Alonzo Mourning to the side, in the process of trying to get at Pat Riley. Shaq woke up the next morning to find one of his Shaq-Fu gold records in his bed, covered in blood.
(Only one of those two sentences is true. If you know anything about Pat Riley, don’t be so sure its the first one.)
Hakeem not only taught Shaq some invaluable lessons in the post, he also taught him how to ride a bike.

Shaq in London! Orlando Magic play the Atlanta Hawks in an exhibition game before the ‘93-‘94 season at Wembley Arena. I never knew this existed or that it even happened.
As a Magic fan growing up in Orlando, this photo is just the worst. (Mark)

“Um. How did you get so many Qs-“
“Don’t worry about it.”
Farewell, Big Fella.
These eyes have never seen a better mix of dominating player & entertaining showman. “The Diesel” was a perfect combination of intimidation, brute force, & immovable object on the court, and the athlete fans & peers most wanted to hang out with off of it. During his best playing days, he was a man amongst boys on even the biggest of stages —Finals MVP in 2000, ‘01, & ,’02 as a Laker— and able to break an opponent down physically, mentally, & emotionally.
Shaq was that rare breed of athlete who could dismantle you in any number of ways. Literally demolish you(& the rim) with the ball in his hands? Check. Had players questioning their own abilities, because their was no way around, over, or through him? Check. Use the media to essentially clown his opponents? Check.
Shaq once said, “They don’t make them like me anymore. They don’t want to make them like that anymore”. So true. The “Big Aristotle” won’t be remembered as the best to ever play the game or maybe even the best to ever play his position, but NBA fans will always smile fondly when we recall his legacy. Aside from being remembered as a Hall of Famer & four-time world champion, that might just be what Shaquille O’Neal cares about the most.

This is a picture of Shaq conducting the Boston Pops.
Your argument is invalid.
Also, some of the orchestra wore Celtics swag.
“If music be the food of love, play on.”
