NBA Finals 2000. Lakers vs Pacers Game 2 Highlights. Shaq 40 points HD

[@RavinManiac]

The early 2000's Laker 3-peat squad had such a strong endgame. You never saw them choke in the 4th.

[@YoungBlood507]

Shaqs finals performance these 3 years is arguably the greatest finals performance and can only compare himself with himself in 1 of the other 3 years. Most effortless fmvp runs

Now I get where Shaq gets all his cocky swagger from. He owned the D. What a beast

[@RavinManiac]

As a Laker fan, especially during the 2000 season, I always felt nervous when Shaq goes to the bench for a breather, coz I know the other team will make a run to cut the lead or even take it.

[@mireiyokoyama1983]

You still had Kobe

[@redfloyd69]

This Lakers team had some serious depth in their roster

[@mummistheword]

It really is incredible how Kobe continued to improve his game throughout his entire career.

Lakers all day everyday baby 😊💜💛and❤️🖤💚#love you Kobe and GiGi 💜💛

J.Rose is greazy 🤦🏾‍♂️He really stuck his foot out as Kobe was coming down and him twist his ankle...Wow that was definitely intentional

[@tammoton9494]

3:20 is crazy Shaq.

[@Cameron_Caron]

How is Glen Rice not in the hall of fame. Hes one of the greatest shooters all time, was an elite scorer for many years and he got a ring and was the 3rd best player on a championship team.

I miss the bright lights Lakers in the Staples

[@TheSands83]

Jesus having to deal with Shaq.. and Kobe.. then fucking glen rice.. just ridiculous

[@Theenableduser]

@2:01 rose admitted he did that intentionally to Kobe(r.i.p)...... DISGUSTING🤢🤮, bush league & pathetic!!!!

Shaq was such a fucken beast

Literally couldn’t do nothing against prime Shaq, while the rest of the lakers struggled in this series finals Shaq was averaging 30

@@brandon_e23 Penny Hardaway ( age 24 ) >>>>>>>> Kobe Bryant ( age 21 ). *Penny Hardaway ( age 24 )- Top 3 in the MVP vote ( 1996 ).* In 1996, the Orlando Magic were an elite team even without Shaquille O"Neal. Even with Shaq missing 28 games, the Magic still ended up 60-22 in the season. The Magic had a 0.714 win percentage without Shaq. 1996 Magic >>>>>> 2000 Lakers.

[@tridra5714]

whats crazier is that shaq could have had 60 if he hit his free throws.

[@thomaslewis247]

Shaqs spin around move was so deadly

2000 finals from Shaq is the best of all time. NOBODY tops that. Not MJ. Not LeBron.

4:25 dunk on shaq

[@systemloading45]

I felt sorry for Smits after this game hahha

[@865style]

Shaq had 40 points, 24 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks. Shaq did not live up to his full potential because of longevity because he did not take basketball as serious as he should have. But this 3peat shaq is insane. The only other player I'd take over this shaq is Jordan. And that's a toss up.

[@MrXennon1]

He also didn't live up to his potential because this wasn't his max potential. He didn't take diet nor training serious.

[@ziginaigra]

ill take prime shaq over mj😋

Thank you for these videos 🙏🏽

[@railenherman6482]

Pacers fan here, but even I have to admit that we didn’t really have a chance against this Lakers team. Even with an injured Kobe.

[@richardhenry5858]

Looking back on it, these teams weren't very good. Yeah, LA had Shaq/Kobe but a bunch of older players. Harper, AC Green, Horry, Grant - the Bryant/Gasol/Bynum/Odom teams were way better and faced better competition than the Pacers, the AI 76ers, and the Nets. The true finals every years was between San Antonio and LA, the East was trash. Kobe and Shaq didn't have the competition, very unimpressive looking back on this version of LA.

[@glennrobinson4176]

2000-2003 Lakers >>>>>>>>>>>>> 2008-2010 Lakers. Odom, Gasol, Bynum ? ? Shaquille O"Neal is one of the best players in Nba history........Just stop. Competition ? ? 2009 WCSF: Rockets vs Lakers ( 3:4 ). - No T-Mac. -Yao Ming was injured and Missed 4 games. *Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom vs Ron Artest, Aaron Brooks and Luis Scola.* Still needed 7 games to beat the Rockets. Lol. The competition in the West ( 2000-2004 ) was crazy.

[@kingdavid_p]

4:50 They can win without him (Kobe Bryant) LOL

[@1972ardy]

Im a diehard kobe fan... but at the time that was true... Indiana wld be beat by prime shaq + harper/rice/horry

[@Stuntinonthesehoes]

@@1972ardy word

[@RavinManiac]

Costas also said at least in the short run, which was definitely true at the time. Lakers can handle not having Kobe for 2 games in the series, Shaq got it covered. Plus they had Glen Rice (who I hated back then because he didn't want to return to LA in the summer and went to NY instead). That's why Kobe coming back in Game 4 was great timing for the Lakers.

[@JohnjOcampo]

They lost the next game without kobe and won the 4th game with kobe lol.
