Imagine really dunking on somebody in front of your peers and having the discipline to not look or even say anything to the guy you just t-bagged. That’s the most unathletic, 60’s type of playstyle.

Hell I’m even down for grabbing a rebound then cocking elbows letting the opponent know to back up 🤣 That spinning back elbow could break facial bones, damage eye socket or even potentially blind someone for life from simply getting grabbed at the waist from behind. Little homie even tried holding shaq up so he didn’t fall cause he was just about to take flight and got elbowed. When you over an opponent to where he is flat out grabbing you already winning. College ball you only get 5 fouls an before you know it he founded out the game. In my eyes again freeing up in that era that sucker elbow was straight up disrespectful.

This game was absolutely the last straw when LSU coach told Shaq to leave LSU early and declare for NBA draft because he was receiving too many hard fouls and cheap shots. Also, the referees were not making the calls when players were constantly hacking him. Shaq got sick and tired of the cheap shots and lashed out
@nicksavov502711 ай бұрын
Prior to that last foul, I don't see the hard fouls and cheap shots that you're referencing. Refs were calling fouls and even some that were borderline. At 0:47 both are pushing a bit and Shaq's doing most of the pushing. Having your hand on a guy was part of the defensive landscape during that time. For example, look at the LSU defender at 2:29 and how he has his foreman on the guy's back. That was normal back then. As to the last foul that started the brawl, the defender was just trying to prevent Shaq from making the shot. He wasn't trying to hurt him.
