His 25,000 points are tainted because he played with guards like Penny, Kobe, and Wade and had coaches like Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, and Brian Hill

Shaq makes other players better just by being on the court, not the other way around. Congrats to Shaq, 25,000 is a whole lot of points.

But literally, they just dump the ball to him literally anywhere in the post and he just moves in to the bucket, he has a real knack for that stuff, its not like John Stockton and Karl Malone, he uses his size to get inside, he earned all those 25K points, wow what a milestone!
I think Shaq is one of the most overrated players ever - all he is is a 7-foot big guy and thats about it. I mean how hard is it to dunk a ball when you're that big - and how hard is it to make some 2 ft shots - come on. I couldnt care less for Shaq's scoring accomplishments - he's a self-centered, attention whore - I don't like the guy at all.His whole "tainted" thing about Nash doesn't help his case much.

But I have to give the guy some credit on this accomplishment. It's a nice milestone.

He has earned all of his points by himself....

To say that all he does is dunk the ball makes me question how much of Shaq you have watched over the years. Shaq uses his body well, you can't take anything away from him.

I do think that he is overrated but I am not going to take anything away from this accomplishment. The guy is among the top 5 centers of all-time IMO so I'm not taking anything away from his play.

I remember when he threw down the court, what a badass dunk.
