Shaquille O’Neal simply set the document straight.
On Sunday, the Twitter account Legion Sports posted O’Neal’s noteworthy stats within the NBA finals with the Los Angeles Lakers from 2000 to 2002. However, one fan wasn’t impressed, arguing that the all-star’s accomplishments wouldn’t have come to go if he hadn’t been taking part in aspect by aspect with the late Kobe Bryant.
“Even with all of this Shaq doesn’t win those rings without Kobe,” the Twitter person fired off.
O’Neal has greater than 15 million followers on Twitter, and the writer of the important tweet has, as of Monday night, 64. Nevertheless, O’Neal discovered the time to leap on social media and clap again at his critic.
“No person can win without another star big dummy,” the legendary participant wrote. “How many would magic have without kareem how many would kenny smith have without hakeem wtf u talking about i hate dumb ass people enjoy my stats and stf up.” (In order, he’s speaking about Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Kenny Smith and Hakeem Olajuwon.)
O’Neal, who now co-hosts “Inside the NBA,” is mostly considered one of many biggest gamers of all time (as is Bryant). During O’Neal’s NBA profession, he secured 4 championships, successful three with the Lakers and one with the Miami Heat.
The 7-foot-1 middle spoke concerning the significance of teamwork throughout an episode of his podcast “The Big Podcast with Shaq” in January.
O’Neal, who with Bryant shaped some of the profitable tandems in NBA historical past, stated: “I have four championships ― can’t do it without Big Bob [Robert Horry], can’t do without Rick Fox, can’t do without the D Fish [Derek Fisher]. They have to be involved. It’s not ‘throw the ball at Shaq, and Shaq shoots it every time or throw the ball to Kobe.’”
