Shaq was actually quite skilled IMO.. he could dribble at times and passed pretty decently... a couple things:
- The center was an entirely different position when he was playing. He was a dominant low post player so he didn't need to shoot from outside.. nor did his teams want him to.
- His body shape was entirely different than GA.. although he was quite a bit thinner when he started with Orlando.
- He was the most dominant player on a purely physical level for probably a decade or so? They basically had to change the rules to keep him from backing players down.
Here's some highlights.. I forgot how often he would lead the break.
