Shed a tear for the Big Aristotle.
What a legend.
I recall my first NBA game I ever went to. Orlando Magic (Shaq & Penny edition) vs Denver Nuggets (Mutombo & Mohammed Abdul Rauf-there it is... RRRRRAAAUFF there it is...).
It went to triple overtime. Shaq & Mutombo had a combine 39 blocks, maybe that stat is a little inflated, but still.

My favorite memories were with him at the Magic - hence the video I posted. He was a beast and verrry agile. The sport will miss him for sure.

Big up the Big Shaq Fu.
Not in the same class as Jordan but bar his FT%, the man could play some ball. 19 seasons is a hell of a career for him, and 4 Championships isnt too bad either. I of course think his days at the Magic with Penny are strong in my memory, the sheer sense of young spirit in that side and enthusiasm for the sport was hard to beat and not enjoy watching or playing as in NBA games at the time.
