He in elite company!
shaq doing it in 2000 is less impressive than him doing it in 2009 ;)
Except he didn’t win any of them in 2009: Wade won the scoring title, LeBron won the MVP, and the Kobe-led Lakers won the championship.
it was a joke, the original post had a typo...
Maybe the most impressive thing about Shaq’s career was that he only won the one MVP. If he had been as driven as.. to pick a player at random, Kobe… he could have won three or four, easily. But his aversion to off-season maintenance showed itself during his decline from 2003 on.
Finals MVP for all of them as well?
This tweet, if you read between the lines, is the most Clippers thing ever.
the pacers lost the 2000 finals, too
