FW: NBA Finals - I'm pretty happy

Granted, Shaq actually has a nice touch around the basket...against guys
60-70 lbs. and 4-5 inches smaller than him. Let's turn the situation
around. Would Shaq be as effective if he had to go up against guys who were
7'-6" and 380 lbs. every game!! Doubtful. Size, or more accurately, MASS
is the only thing that separates him from any other center.



Shaq made many shots outside of 5 ft in this series. He was using the glass
very effectively from the low block just outside the lane on turnaround
jumpers. I'll grant no one will ever say, "Shaq, what a shooter," but the
guy has good footwork, and when he wants too, like game 7, can make any shot
he takes in the post.
