The Los Angeles Lakers have had some of the best centers to ever play the game of basketball.
Shaquille O’Neal is just one of many great Laker big men, but it looks like O’Neal is not to fond of other great Laker centers.
O’Neal went on twitter and posted a picture on who he believed were the two best Laker centers ever.
O’Neal purposely blocks off Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s face with his enormous hand and only O’Neal and George Mikan are visible in the picture.
According to Arash Markazi from ESPN LA, O’Neal did not have much of a relationship with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or Wilt Chamberlain.
Shaq addressed this in June: “When I was in L.A., Kareem and Wilt never spoke to me. They never said two things to me…”

O’Neal seems to be a bit bitter from his time with the Lakers, and it looks like George Mikan was the only one that embraced the diesel. Not only did they have a great relationship, but O’Neal honored Mikan by paying for his funeral cost when the he passed in 2005.
Yep. http://t.co/BujCJQ4bfq RT @aarbron@ArashMarkazi Also worth noting that Shaq paid for Mikan’s funeral.

Shaquille O’Neal is one of the most dominating forces to have ever played this game, but big guys have feelings too, and it looks like O’Neal feelings were hurt by Abdul-Jabbar and Chamberlain.
