Is Shaq the biggest underacheiver in nba history?

He should own the record books, rebounds and blocks, a no defensive player of the year awards, and with the lack of big men in the league in his era, as a once huge shaq fan im very dissapointed

Is Shaq the biggest underacheiver in nba history?nba rules

If 4rings in six finals appearances and 3 finals mvp and regular season mvps is underachieving then damn. thats all i can say..

I get your point but I wouldn't go as far as calling him an underachiever. he aint got the awards to show for it but he was a top5 in the major categories for most of his career. he aint the BIGGEST underachiever and he aint even an underachiever.

Whaaaaaaaat? Over 20,000 points and 4 championship rings. Are you serious?
WTF are you talking about? Shaq has 4 title rings and 3 finals MVP trophies.
Shaq is aw-right. The only reason we WAS so good is because he took up space. Know he's just SO old, and can't take the beating he gets down low.
shaq will go down as one of the best centers of all time, probably top 5. if you look at him now, yea he sucks, hes old, fat, slow, but in his prime with the magic and lakers, he was as dominant as a guy can be. nobody could stop him.
how many rings does he have again?
He is a clown just like Barkley was. All the talent in the world but doesn't have the desire to give 100% all the time. He obviously has wasted some of his career by not being as dedicated to the sport as others.

However its his life, I'm not one to hold it against him. I know I don't give 100% at work all the time, especially when I'm at work on a Saturday morning replying to this,
WOW he is one of the best
I wouldnt put him as an underachiever, not with 4 championship rings. Many all stars went/go through their career without a ring. However%26lt; i actually think at times he was over rated, and only because with his size he could have done so much more, individually, and media and fans accepted his input with his team each day no matter what he did. Unfortunately, his presence was quite intimidating to many opponents, but offensively, all he was able to do, was practially stand in the paint and drop the ball in. No movement, no dribble, no lay-ups, no coordination, which is why this season I was surprised to see him actually go for loose balls and hit the stands. He can actually move, how about that. One would think tall, big men have it made, but if that person is somewhat uncoordinated, doesnt matter. With his size and "ability" he should be pouring in tens of points on The Spurs right now, despite their defense. But being a Spurs fan, I am quite happy he is only complaining and making ridiculous comments regarding The Spurs wins, cause, afterall who is in a 0-3 hole?
maybe an underachiever as far as his expectations and production this year, but with 4 rings, and some MVP awards (3, I think) i don't think u can look at his overall basketball career and dare fix ur mouth to say "underachiever" at all. i know he was a disappointment to the SUNS, but u can't put all of that on Shaq..basketball is a team sport and his teammates (especially Nash and Amare) need to step up their games. Of course, it's 2 late now, cause the spurs pretty much ripped their hearts out lastnight.
Um, ever hear of a guy named Tracy McGrady?
If four titles in six finals appearances is underachieving then perhaps your standards are a bit to high.

Now I see your point but I wouldn't go as far as calling him an underachiever, he just played his game best he could and history will tell the rest as far as where he stands amongst the greatest ever.
HOW OLD ARE YOU, ACE?
Underachiever ? Are you kidding? He has won MVP a few times and not to mention four championship rings.
at the end only the championship rings matter.

Shaquille O'Neal has 4 Championships.. 3 of it in him being MVP. Not a lot of people can go to the finals even. Shaq proved that and that is all that matters
no....he averaged 30 and 10 for along time...no big man in to days era average 30 and 10

4 rings

6 finals
He was the best player on his team for 4 NBA titles. that's pretty impressive.

He's too big and slow to really get a lot of rebounds and blocks. The best rebounders are those who can not only get the ones under the basket but also get the ones that land 15 feet away. The best shot blockers are the ones who come out of nowhere.
