Shaquille O’Neal recently hinted at an alternative NBA timeline involving him and Kobe Bryant. In a recent interview on ‘Power 106 Los Angeles’, Shaq emphasized the importance of their 2000 Western Conference Finals victory. At the time, the Lakers faced a critical Game 7 against the Portland Trail Blazers. With the series tied, Bryant made a crucial play by throwing an alley-oop to Shaq, securing a 89-84 win. This pivotal moment kickstarted their three-peat era, solidifying their legacy as one of the greatest duos in NBA history.
