Shaq last dunk was that lob in Boston with the 1 hand dunk was crazy didn’t even know he had it in him

Was that the game with the big paper faces of Garnett and Rondo in the audience? I was at that game

Shaq, you always be who you are. Love you Shaq ❤

that one last dunk

Word I got to see D Wade play Charlotte in Charlotte his last time and it was awesome!! I smh at him now but he was my guy when he played

Facts, I can relate. I wish I could do the things I used to do now compared to when I was a US MARINE in my prime. 1❤🫡 Semper Fi.

@@kennychaplin4755Thank you for your service. 🙏

Time is undefeated my friend. And acceptance is happiness

I just want my knees back.

You're right but it's not quite the same as what you're talking about. But i get what you mean

yeah. idk if shaq still acts like that now that he is an analyst tho. everytime someone criticizes him his comeback is basically "i was a top player dont talk to me"

​@@ricardorivera7549true but not true. Kids have got soft now. So when Shaq motivates like he was motivated the new gen just cries

Nah Shaq's petty don't believe him

@@user-rx2vo1lj5z every generation has its softies, middle aged American white men are some of the most fragile people on earth

Shaq sad sad

Shaq big sad. Shaq eat rock for breakfast

That was The Big Aristotle that said that.

​@@steviechampagne 😂😂😂

Dam near spit out my mf food 🤣💀😂🪦

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I just play in the work league and req league. I quit when I was 52. I was grieving. It wasn’t even my main thing. I loved basketball and enjoyed the competition

Yeah I know. And imagine dominating the game like he used to and now can’t. He always keeps it real.

Average people don’t really think about how that effects 98% of collegiate athletes

@@Eric-pv4jy😢😢😢

Classic Shaq

You could have given me the 1.5

Most stupid fits better.

​@@jorgecambra2193Yeah, after making over 150m in guaranteed NBA money and another 100m in endorsements before retirement, he definitely needed that 1.5 to deteriorate his body and career stats. You're a fool. 😂

or he could be just saying it in a way to express his point, he never gonna do that. We don't know. Before anybody dismiss this point, he never really give up 1.5m, otherwise he'd just say he gave that 1.5m back instead of say he suggested it.

Didn't need the money. And would make more doing less if he retired. Which he did. It wasn't money owed, it was 1.5 left on the 2nd year of the deal... he played the 1 season and retired.

Meanwhile, jj's boyfriend is opting out to re-sign for the max, after losing to the same team in consecutive playoffs.

@@rastaoiiiiLmao i dont like Lebron but hes not a 9 point washed up version of himself… Comparing him to Boston Shaq shows you’re like 10 years old

Shaq was done when he went to Cavs I said that ain’t shaq but they still won 65 games an lost the playoffs which lebron fans love gaslighting

@clutch7548 lebron has been stat padding and not affecting wins since last season. Are you looking for 10 year olds on the internet?🤔

wait , in that game lebron scored less than 20????

@@BeenDeliveredTodaythat’s what I’m trying to figure out!

@@BeenDeliveredToday No in that game Shaq scored 11 points. Lebron had a 27 point triple double with 15 more boards than Shaq

@@dakota8381 man people be lying, that guy said shaq was the only cavaliers player that scored over 20

@BeenDeliveredToday MO Williams had 20+ that game too. I will say the game before that I think it was game 5 Shaq had 20 and no one else had 20 LeBron had like 15.

It’s a type of wisdom and strength. He was a good player in his time, and that time ended. That has to be ok.

Well, and RESPECTFULLY said, homie. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽

Loved our time with the Big Shamrock☘️

That's class, man! :)

Damn right bro. Much luv ☘️

Stretch more everyday do yoga drink more water you will be nimble like a noodle gave y'all a life hack

When he tore the whole backboard down was beyond fantastic! Someone said they saw him and he is gigantic! ✌️

Know the feeling, could jump and run really well back in the day. Now in my early 50’s those are distant memories. Wouldn’t even try to grab the rim anymore.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂my man i feel your pain. Mother nature and father time has never lost a battle

@@lancemanyon7645 I decided to knock down a kids stuck basketball on the rim. I jumped up and I knocked it down, but I regretted all day. My knee was hurt and my back was like calm down. Forget that jumping shh. I’m approaching 50 lol

As a man who could never dunk I can’t relate. Had an old man game in high school which has translated very well to mid 30s 😂

@@youngOG87 There you go accept what you have. I had to quit by 30 because my knees hurt so bad. They are fine now but it took a long time to heal. Loved playing back in the day for sure

That's probably why they got rid of him, he was too real. They need corporate puppets to push their agendas

Now he gargles LeBum's nuts, lost all respect for him.

Lol you've never watched Inside the NBA....his arrogance is one of the main highlights of the show. And it works.

He's a great guy, but he'd have been twice the player if he was in the gym

@@nk-dw2hm Yea I agree with you

No he was just already super rich.

Probably helped that he already had a bucketload in the bank 😅

Of course.

How do you relate to that? Were you a professional athlete?

@@fil4648for some reason, the way this comment is worded makes me feel like he might've been. remember, athletes are people like us, they have youtube accounts too.

@@fil4648Im not but I was semi pro football player for a couple of years before I turned 20 and even played in u16 international team for my country and now 5 years after that when I go to field and can barely do anything I used to be able to do because of my knee problems it just fucks me up mentally so even if he wasnt a pro he could still feel that

​@@fil4648 anyone who has competed at a very high level can feel this

I've never met him but I always thought he seemed to be a cool person off camera like he is on camera. I've heard that people come up to him at gas stations and ask for pictures and autographs and he does it. Not uppity. Would love to meet him.

felt the same way when he came to Cleveland

I really wish him or Dwight could’ve won a chip in Orlando 😔

To an NBA team that is worth billions too lol

He made 292M from NBA contracts and around 200M from endorsements during his playing career. 1.5M for his ego is nothing.

@@luf4rall idc it’s still crazy to say ppl on the streets with nothing

On me! I wouldn’t said I need all mine! 😂

Any team that didn't have shaq would easily pay double that to have his name attached to there second market team 😂

Like As a veteran who was dominant in the past or just getting to the league and that how much u average?

​@@shambykumondan7268its a rhetorical bruh. No need to go literal

Shaq is also well known for embellishing stories as well though lol.

If, if, if

The problem was his free throws. Had he hit 85% of his free throws, he would have a case

no

Fair criticism. When that metabolism catches up to you though it's crazy

That's the problem though. Who listens to people who say "don't do this, i did it!"? It's why I never tell me daughter "don't do drugs, I did that." Like any other human being, she's gonna think "why's it ok for you and not me?" instead, i let her mom be the example. Daddy did drugs, Mommy didn't, look who's productive and who's scrambling to get by even after quitting the drugs TWELVE YEARS AGO? Let her use the information to make up her own mind. Criticizing someone else for YOUR mistakes is being a hypocrite, and THAT, more than anything else, is why people won't listen.

Same. I was an Allen Iverson and I hated Shaq’s play against the in the finals. There are things with which I still take issue concerning him but I do like his growth, development, heart, perspective and intentions.

Go earn your own money

I’m actually confused about the JJ hate comments 😂

Cuz he is white

"FOUR R I N G S." - the only argument he had most of the times

People have different sides to them. He seems to have an egocentric side that shows when he is with people he is comfortable with, but also when he is with people he doesn’t respect. He obviously also has a humble side when he is around people he respects but not too friendly with. In podcasts, he is all over the place because he can’t decide who he is around.

Almost as if humans are complex beings with multifaceted, malleable personalities😮

Everyone has an ego bro. Get off your high chair

Dude has an ego but most of the bluster seems to be for the show. He argues and bullies Chuck because that’s what gets views. Shaq seems like a pretty genuine person in all honesty.

Sounds like you'd give him a Blumpkin

I respect him as a player and the impact he had. But there has been some moments of him being very petty and insecure. His feud with Dwight Howard over being nicknamed Superman. And the recent Jokic remarks. As well as Phil Jackson asking Kobe to do less so Shaq felt like he was getting more done. He has also admitted he relied a bit too much on his natural gifts as opposed to sharpening his skills. So for me personally, cool dude and incredible talent but he gets a bit too much in his feels about certain things and lashes out negatively. Which makes me less of a fan.

Shaq easily should’ve won multiple regular season mvps

And we LAKER fans HATED seeing SHAQ in GREEN 🤢

FAX! I was looking for this comment bcuz BABIEEE! I'd love to have that money 🤑💰 right now

The thing is that as our favorite athletes get old, we also get old. Following a career makes you reflect on your own mortality a bit. You also come to terms at some point that your life is a certain way, and whatever you accomplish, it eventually turns to dust with you and eventually you're completely forgotten. Before I leave anybody with a sense of existential dread, that doesn't mean life is meaningless. We live for our own satisfaction, for our friends and family, and every once in a while for a stranger, and for the 0.01% of us great enough to be athletes, the fans.
