My Generation #2: Shaquille O'Neal

Paul Pierce sits down with NBA royalty spanning multiple generations to explore basketball's continuing legacy. In episode 2 Paul is joined by Shaquille O'Neal, the larger than life center who hit his stride in the '90s and early 2000s. Shaq takes this opportunity to let his opinions fly, from the current lack of nicknames and the effects of social media to why the league has become soft and the admission that he's usually at home watching Maury Povich when a game is on. FUN FACT: Shaq only admits to being dunked on once, by Derrick Coleman.
