Shaquille O'Neal says he is retiring from the NBA after a professional career spanning nearly two decades.

Surely a first ballot HoFer.
 
What a legend. Shaq was the star of his era and argubally shouldve went a year or two ago.
 
Also a really great guy especially in a league full of D-Bags, I wish him well in his future endeavours, hard to believe its been so long of a career but time flies.
 
Well, if he was going to retire, at least it was with the Celtics. What a beast of a guy, and he still looked quality.
 
From what I have seen of the guy he seems a really decent sort of a guy...also an iconic figure in the sport

A great player who achieved everything. According to Wikipedia he won four ***les, thought he won more but still great guy
 
Wonder how he would fare on a rugby field ..the man is a sheer unit.

I reckon he would've been good at both League and Union, if he was raised in a Rugby country. He's a sheer unit and an athlete.

Geez 19yrs, I'd hate to be one of his knees.

Catch you on the rebound Shaq-Diesel.
 
His knees are probably in some state ..what height is the guy close enough to 7 foot I am guessing
