shaqs ankles were like nope weve had enough with supporting this 350 lb man.

hes been playing full nba games since 92', body banging with the strongest centers in the nba, playing atleast 35+ minutes. that ware and tear finally caught up to him.

He said in a interview on nba tv he was glad the injury happened because he couldn't leave the game on his own will,like a addiction if you would...damn that baller life🏀

"Shaq, you shouldn't be laughing! You got hurt just running up the court!"

Typically Achilles tear victims feel as though they've been kicked in their calves, you can see that's what happened to Shaq since he turns around to see who kicked him after the tear.

hes a big guy, with a big heart, shaq will be missed

God bless Shaq. The crowd was cheering hard for him before this and he was still playing well.

Who’s here after Kd tore his Achilles and Shaq spoke on getting this injury?

I'm so confused on the comments, this isn't where he tore his achillies He played one game in the playoffs against the heat that year

It really pained me to see Shaqs career end like that he deserved a better send off but all those years of being fat and out of shape came back to bite him

Even in his very last game he was commanding double teams in the low post area.

love you shaq! game aint the same without you for real

Man I was emotional seeing Shaq like that it was sad

Its common in sports community, almost everyone who plays sports, does it with passion and would love to play it for ever!

yup its like they say father time is undefeated

I’m a Celtics fan I liked him for 1 season for those dunks he did but felt so bad bc he was really big and it was sad to see him sad and wobble he just was old he had to retire in Phoenix from a Celtics fan I was 5 in 2011

This is what Charles has talked about on Inside the NBA

Shaquille O'Neal is the Micheal Jordan of centers.

Them snipers got em lol

Shaq is so freakishly huge that he could probably still play in today's league lol. All he has to do is sit in the paint and back people down. I guess we will see what he can do in ice cube's upcoming league 👀

Later in the locker room Doctor: That's it Shaq, your legs are overworked from carrying your heavy ass. Either lose weight, or retire. Shaq: Well, I'm at that age

should've been a laker a few years longer but, we love you shaq thx for the rings

See how he looks to see who is behind him in the replay? It feels like someone kicks you in the calf. I did it two weeks ago and I still cant walk at all.

Eating too much burgers are bad! When I watched this I remember Robert Parish! Even he was already on his 40s he was still in great shape.

Age and weight

The fact that he was able to walk on a torn Achilles is astounding. A very massive human being

That's WHAT SEPERATES GREAT BASKETBALLERS FROM LEGENDARY BASKETBALLERS. INSTEAD OF USING HIS PHYSICAL PRESENCE AS A WEAPON, HE MODIFIED HIS WAY OF PLAYIN RELYING ON LAYUPS, LIGHT FADE AWAY SHOTS. W/ 1-of-worst injuries THE WORST CONCEIVABLE INJURY. SHAQ SHOWED THE WORLD HE COULD PLAY @ THE HIGHEST LEVEL if only for a brief second. TO THE KING OF THE BIG MEN, & 1 OF OUR FAVORITE SONS WHO CAME TO LSU.. SON WE U LOVE U. THANK U FOR EVERYTHING SHAQ.

Shaq was amazing to see play in his 20s

He was actually owning this moment was prob one of Shaq's best in his career. Come back from an injury and destroy the other team. Sucks he got injured again maybe because he came a little too soon

MAN WHAT IF: A Championship with Orlando in the 90s and a Final one with Boston would've been an epic career beginning to end.

Yep they just tried to say Kevin Durants was a right calf sprain... definitely looking like an Achilles though

You know you're getting too old for sport when injuries start occurring regularly.

I got to watch him with the heat after that it went downhill he never took care of himself like he was supposed to

Smh i hate to see one of my fav players go down like this

Who’s here 2020

Damn...kd looked back exactly the same way

we love you in boston shaq!

0:59 listen carefully you can hear 'oh shit' haha

From HERE in LOUSIANA. U GAVE US SO MUCH PRIDE. U DID THAT. NCAA MENS BASKETBALL.. SHAQ TOOK LSU FANS BY STORM, ENTERED THE NBA DRAFT IN1991, & SHAQ WENT NUCLEAR

When Shaq got shot lmaooo

Who's here after Giannis' Achilles looks in big trouble? I forgot that this was Shaq's last game. Really tough.

Who else here after KD Injury.

Shaq was a monster

He could have surpassed Hakeem and Kareem had he not been such a lazy guy.

it was painful to watch Shaq crying like a baby..

shaq was dancin to the music!

I was watching this game I knew it was over for Shaq

Father time said enough Big Fella

Chuck: when you got shot walking down the court in Boston

Leaving the court limping like Andre the giant

He was way too big

“Shaq is back”

Oh crap, Shaq was right. Kevin Durant looked back just like he did here

The Shaquille “ O’Whale” years🤣

Shaq is one of the greatest player to ever play the game but he was being unfit since 2004. But its ok he is rich, a champion and hall of fame. But just think if he is fit

The old generation of basketball players are slowly becoming the smaller group of NBA players

The divine Lakers energy said nope you not playing for the Celtics any longer 😂

LOL Shaq daddy is a big boii

1:20 that’s when he got shot in the leg

I hate seeing great players end their careers with an injury.

damn, he makes davis look tiny and he weighs 280

How does no one see that he was shot in the leg? If you slow it down you can clearly see the bullet entering and a gunman in the first row

how old was shaq when he retired?

Damn... Shaq daddy!

i played center in a minor league and it happened to me i felt like i was getting kicked in my cavles every time i step😐

Is that where he tore his Achilles?

What kind of injury was it ?

Age. Just like Kobe now at 35, Nash, on and on it goes. Age catches up with you. And he's just too big. Too much weight on that frame coming down on those legs. Ouch!

Shaq was so desperate to get his 5th ring so bad to even up with Kobe, he had to sign with the Celtics. SMH Shaq 😕

Shipping up to Boston

If shaq was healthy and danny ainge didn't trade perkins and robinson the celtics would have been working on banner 19 or 20

He just ddnt wana help the Celtics lol he'll always be a laker

He has a show called upload on trutv watch it

HE GOT SHOT IN THE LEG

Sad moment in NBA history

coud of been the GOAT next to jordan if he wasnt so lazy and had that killer instinct

was that joel osteen behind shaq?

He was too fat. He injured himself just from running. you need a lean body like Mutombo if you wanna play in your 30's and 40's

He was way to heavy in my opinion... Needed to get alot of weight off those legs if he wanted to play a little longer...

im going to tell you i felt bad for shaq

@ThaDon419 i know right..

So...It's Typical To LIE And Say Torn Calf instead of Achilles...Got It.

Hi

moving screen 1:03 lol

1 to many cheese burgers

It was age and his body sadly

oh no hes is in hes 40's homie

I was a bit fat back then... :D

This was sad to watch lol

Yo

was this his last game?

Uh oh Is right tommy

That's age

How old was he here?

He think he was still 20 years old and played like there was no tomorrow. He was a washed up athlete when he came in Boston.

shakillllllll o nillllllllllllllllll

what in the hell was that.. cramp??

He was a total embarrassment.

Lmao

what the fuck
