There is little doubt that Shaq is one of the most dominant forces this league has ever seen. In fact, more than a few folks would be more than willing to agree that the Los Angeles Lakers icon stands second to none when it comes to his dominance during his time in the NBA.

If you ask ONeal, however, the Hall of Fame big man doesnt only believe that he was once a truly commanding presence on the basketball court. In his mind, Shaquille ONeal also claims that he is the most decisive player whos ever picked up a basketball:

I am the most decisive player in NBA history, Shaq said, via Carlos Sacristan of Marca. Have you heard of Hack-a-Shaq? If not look it up. I was a force to be reckoned with because I was a dominant big man.

Fair point from Shaq. If you followed this man throughout his career, then its easy to realize how he has a pretty solid argument here. Nobody changed the nature of the game like Shaq did back in his day. For an entire league to come up with an entirely new tactic to try and stop ONeal, aka the Hack-a-Shaq, simply speaks volumes of how much of a groundbreaking superstar he truly was.

In this light, Shaq also said that he is of the belief that Golden State Warriors talisman Stephen Curry is the biggest problem in the NBA today. Their games could not be more different, but its clear that ONeal sees a lot of similarities between himself and the greatest shooter of all time.
