Shaquille O'Neal Retires

30

Never a Wolf, but one of the best centers of all-time, Shaq Diesel is apparently calling it quits. 19 years, 4 championships, Rookie of the Year, 1999-00 MVP, 3-time NBA Finals MVP, 15 All-Star appearances. I thought his retirement was definitely worthy of acknowledgement, given how much he changed the game and impacted the entire NBA. My favorite Shaq moment was his alley-oop from Kobe to cap off a comeback against the Blazers in the 2000 Western Conference Finals.
