I love watching the long athletic types try to exploit the slower big guys. The matchups and strategy of creating mismatches is what makes basketball so fun to watch for me. It would be interesting to see a guy like Shaq try to survive in todays game. Teams like the Raptors would try to pick on him and put him in space on every trip down the floor.
I think being allowed to be more physical this year would only help his ability to be great TBH. Shaq was like a 7 foot defensive lineman out there.
