O’Neal was famous for his massive strength and size but according to the NESN<\/a> article he was able to run the floor, handle the ball plus he had an array of post move skills as well:<\/p>\n

“O\u2019Neal\u2019s massive strength and size certainly helped him crush opposing centers, but he also had very underrated skill, whether it was his array of post moves, ability to run the floor and even handle the ball in transition. He could play a finesse game when the situation warranted it.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
