Shannon Sharpe, JR Smith talking about Shaq like he Zion.

[Easy-E]

JR said Nikola (I love him, too) already passed Shaq

Joker and Ant could take on Kobe and Shaq '

(Embedded fukking up)

As for Shaq's peak, he was at his absolute best during the early 2000s with the Los Angeles Lakers. His most remarkable season was 2000, when he won the NBA MVP award, led the Lakers to the NBA Championship, and was named the Finals MVP. During that season, he averaged 29.7 points, 13.6 rebounds, and 3.8 blocks per game

NBA Championships​

• 4-time NBA Champion: 2000, 2001, 2002 (Los Angeles Lakers), 2006 (Miami Heat)

Individual Awards​

• NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP): 2000
• 3-time NBA Finals MVP: 2000, 2001, 2002
• 15-time NBA All-Star: 1993-1998, 2000-2007, 2009
• 3-time NBA All-Star Game MVP: 2000, 2004, 2009
• NBA Rookie of the Year: 1993
• 2-time NBA Scoring Champion: 1995, 2000

All-Time Rankings​

• Points: 28,596 (23.7 ppg)
• Rebounds: 13,099 (10.9 rpg)
• Field Goal Percentage: 58.2%

One or two Rings or MVPs isn't changing his legacy.

Neither being a better free-throw shooter.

If Shaq made 70% of those missed free throws, where would he rank in all-time points?

Let's crunch some numbers! Shaq missed 5,317 free throws in his career. If he had made 70% of those, he would have made:

5,317×0.7≈3,722 additional points5,317 \times 0.7 \approx 3,722 \text{ additional points}​

Adding those points to his existing 28,596 points would give him:

28,596+3,722=32,318 points28,596 + 3,722 = 32,318 \text{ points}​

With 32,318 points, Shaq would have ranked third on the all-time scoring list, surpassing LeBron James (34,241) and Michael Jordan (32,292), behind only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (38,387) and Karl Malone (36,928).

Those missed free throws sure made a significant difference in his scoring totals, but it doesn't overshadow his tremendous impact on the court.

 

[Goat poster]

The Shaq disrespect is starting to get corny and forced.

I get he seemingly left a lot on the table as far as his prime years, buit cmon: Three straight finals MVP's is NOTHING to sneeze at.

Thats incredibly rare air and should be respected

 

[Damnshow]

Shaq is a top 10 all time. All that he could've been better doesn't change a fact that he's one of the very best at what he did.

 

[aceboon]

how long until Shaq says something slick about JR and Shannon

 

[mag357]

People always think because someone played the sport, that they have a better opinion.

This is the opinion of a nikka that doesn't know what the fck he's talking about.
Full stop

If he wins a couple more chips, then we can talk

Shaq's a heater himself so if people start slighting him

LMAO

SHAQ WOULD DESTROY JOKER.

I LOVE JOKER BUT
JOKER IS A CENTER DOMINATING
A LEAGUE FOR OF PFS.

I fukks with Jokic too but it's a bit too much.

That's why I was glad Sam Cassell told Draymond about how nice Dream was.

At one point, Dream was top ten in points, rebounds, blocks, and steals. No other center or player has done that if I'm not mistaken.

Shaq certainly could have done more but being able to do what he did, and we're saying he could've done more is wild in and of itself.

Nobody should be ranking Jokic on an all-time scale until his prime is over, at least.

That said, y'all need stop with this shyt.

Jokic has dominated every single type of big that he's come up against - from cats he's punished in the low post/in the paint (4x DPOY Rudy) to shooting over players whose wingspans can reach the sky (AD). His scoring skillset allows him to kill any type of big. And that's before we even take into account his playmaking, where he is without peer.

When Shaq was in LA running through the league, he was dominating a league full of stiffs and 4s too.

YOU NAMED A PF IN AD
AND A GREAT WEAK SIDE HELP DEFENDER IN GOBERT.

JOKER AND EMBIID ARE
THE ONLY TRUE CENTERS IN
THE LEAGUE IN TERMS OF SIZE AND SKILL.

SHAQ DOMINATED IN THE 90S
AS SOON AS HE STEPPED ON
A NBA COURT.

He didn't win shyt until the 90s bigs started fading out (and for the most part their impact and ability is romanticized, which we all know you won't admit for obvious reasons).

Who was he dominating during the Lakers three-peat? What was the difference between the bigs during that period and the bigs that Jokic has come up against? What true centers were there in terms of size and skill?

 

[Dorian Breh]

shaq spends 80% of his time hating

and the remaining 20% supporting blue lives matter

so he can get whatever hate coming back to him

HE HAD TO WAIT HIS TURN.

[seemorecizzy]

ppl mad shaq was a 10 out of 10 instead of a 12 out of 10 lol

What year was he supposed to win that he didnt because of conditioning? Tim Duncan is da only reason Shaq didnt have more chips and awards and there's no shame in that.
