Shaquille O'Neal is the most unstoppable entity that the NBA has ever seen to this very day. It's almost impossible to explain or measure his impact on the game. Every night, centers across the league would hang their heads in shame knowing that there was nothing they could possibly do to stop Shaq from completely wrecking the rim while he was on the floor. Some coaches strategically utilized fouling the 7'1, 325lbs powerhouse, but eventually, a rule was created to curb that type of behavior from opposing teams in the 'Hack-a-Shaq' rule.
Shaq was selected first overall in the 1992 NBA Draft by the Orlando Magic where he played alongside the legendary Penny Hardaway before taking his talents to Hollywood in 1996, where he would become a larger-than-life superstar. Shaq earned four NBA titles, three NBA Finals MVPs, fifteen NBA All-Star selections, one NBA Most Valuable Player Award (2000) and so much more. There literally isn't anything the Big Diesel hasn't done. Whether it be act, rap, DJ, star in a video game, or host the most popular NBA postgame television show, Shaquille O'Neal is sports entertainment at its best.
