Shaquille o'Neal is considered as the most dominant center in NBA history. He was the catalyst to the three consecutive championships at the start of the century for the Lakers.

Shaq won a NBA regular season MVP and three consecutive NBA finals MVPs with the Los Angeles Lakers. He also won a ring with Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat and had a very illustrious career. Known for his rim-breaking dunks and posters, his most dominating and successful years were with the Lakers.

Shaq and Kobe combined to form the most deadly duo in NBA history. The Lakers were almost unbeatable when the two played together and they have the record of going through the postseason with just 1 defeat.

Shaq is one of only three players to win NBA MVP, All-Star game MVP and NBA finals MVP awards in the same year (2000). He fell just one vote shy of becoming the first unanimous MVP in NBA history in 2000.
