Shaq sitting there with a smile on his face just happy that he got his before Dwight 🤣
Dwight hasn't retired yet.
Even tho Dwight has accomplished way more in a Magic jersey than he did
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 deadass. He’s more excited about that than he is about getting his jersey retired 💀😂
@@perryd5462 You know Shaq been dying to one up Dwight ever since Kenny called Dwight Superman at the dunk contest 🤣
@@perryd5462 🤣
Dwight Howard is their best franchise player. He has multiple DPOY, finals appearances, All NBA, all star selections etc
Dwight had a single appearance
@@c-yonko9391so did shaq
@@c-yonko9391 typo weirdo
@@c-yonko9391you dropped the ball with that comment😂
No he was not it was Shaq and penny hardaway
"I don't want to hear it. Bol Bol had his jersey retired first." - Shaq
🤣
This is Tex Johnson
Mad Dog: Steph’s a nice shooter
Molly: That’s disrespectful
Stephen A: oh my god
this ish had me dying bro
Molly ending the segment with "nice little shooter" with a side eye got me fr😂
Dog is trippin and I don't even like Steph like that hahahaha
Imagine a world where I care about Molly's opinion. 🤔
@@elviskinoti22 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"is scott skiles next" - Mad Dog 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Brian Shaw or Harvey Grant lol
😂😂😂😂😂
I like molly calling him out for “nice shooter”
Me, too. Stephen Curry is easily one of the 10 best jump shooters I've ever seen in the NBA.
yeah we all were molly there for a sec. She gets NBA more than old white dude
Thats all he is.. no defense.. just crys about calls and shoots. Decent player
@@Kubush1 L bait
@@itroll4alivin34yearsago8 bro lack human interactions😢
Penny, Hardaway and Shaquille O’Neal are franchise originals and put them on the map. I don’t have a problem with this. Them honoring him.
Honestly, though it could go back-and-forth but I agree if it wasn’t for him and Penny
And Dwight
Also, people forget and try to ignore that they beat the Bulls the year before!
Penny and Hardaway is the same player/ person 😂.... Edit your comment
Teams should have a higher standard for retiring jerseys. “Putting a team on the map” is nice but that shouldn’t be good enough.
Penny or Dwight deserved that more than Shaq no disrespect
Agree! Especially Dwight he carried a team on his back to the finals! And he stayed in Orlando way longer!
Shaq was the first big star of the organization.
Dwight will likely get a jersey retirement.
I agree with Dwight but not Penny, He didn’t do enough
Why Penny? He got injured right after Shaq left and never reached his potential.
Molly at the end 😂😂😂😂
She's definitely said that before 😂
Molly with the "Nice little shooter" was the perfect way to end this segment. NEVERMIND Curry is lethal DRIVING AND MIDRANGE.....
Shaq put Magic on the map. There’s no discussion.
He left them
@@tonydegante7449their fault. They wouldn’t pay him. The lakers did.
The Magic is on a map??? Where? Why?
@@WingsBanquet no he wanted to get traded
Shaq was the first Magic star, but let's remember he had the 2nd best guard on the planet in Penny Hardaway. I can easily prove that. Penny was 1st team All-NBA in consecutive years (1995 and 1996). No other guard did that from 1992-1996 besides MJ.
Dwight’s should’ve been first before Shaq tbh, I’m not arguing wit anybody about it
Dwight Howard isn't even a hall of famer. He was always extremely overrated and part of the LGBT community, so that immediately disqualifies him.
What does him being part of the LGBT community have anything to do with the jersey retirement? Are you really that insecure?@@Zenigundam
@@Maver1ck101He’s also lying about Dwight not being a Hall of Famer…
@@Zenigundamlittle girl shut up don’t ever talk about basketball again,go to your bed right now.
Shaq did everything Dwight did in 4 yrs and took them to their first finals
Shaq put Orlando on the map. Yes he only spent 4 years there, but he took em to 2 ECF and an NBA Finals and was a dominant force all 4 years. Not to mention the Magic are not the Lakers or Celtics, they don't have 17 banners hanging up, they don't have a history of winning. If Shaq did that in a Lakers or Celtics jersey, he'd never get his jersey retired. But cause he did it in Orlando, it's a big deal for them. It's not as egregious as they're making it out to be.
He got swept in both the ECF year and the Finals year.
And once he left, they were off the map. How do they still have a team?
@@NatTurnerswitBurnerzthe fans show up, and other than the stupid New Orleans and charlotte debacle they are one of the newest teams.
@@NatTurnerswitBurnerz They weren't off the map. They got McGrady 4 years later and Dwight right after that.
Dennis Rodman led the league in rebounds over the 4 years Shaq played in Orlando. Steven A living with them alternative facts.
They were a new expansion franchise, Shaq put that franchise on the map
Facts!!! In a record amount of time too! Shaq and Penny became house hold names in roughly a 2.5 year span, which is insane!
He made them a lot of money but did not do much for stats and wins.
Fax
@@dgilroy26maybe you should take your phone off mute. Stephen A was literally listing down the numbers Shaq had posted all four years he was in Orlando. Yeah no championships but there's tons of other stats
JESUS WEPT!!!!
That "Nice Little Shooter" at the end said by Molly was kinda mystic sounding..
Molly with the closing line and the side-eye at the end 🤣 8:39
I love Molly repeating Mad Dog condescendingly.
" Nice little shooter."
Howard won 4 DPoY awards in Orlando and was with the franchise for 8 years and made a Finals as well.
8 yr 1 final vs 4 yrs 1 final
@@oscararias3395 also 4 DPoY awards. It just doesn’t make much sense. If this is the standard then the Warriors absolutely have to retire Kevin Durant jersey. Maybe the Raptors should retire Kwahi jersey.
The fact that Stephen A did not pounce on the blasphemous statement of Russo calling curry a nice shooter is inexcusable
I can’t wait for Shaq to call Steph a. about this 😂😂😂😂
Madd dogg speaking fact 😂
True Magic fans know how much fun and excitement those mid-90’s teams brought to not just Orlando and central Florida, but the entire NBA. Thanks for the memories Shaq and Penny. I get a tear thinking back on those teams and what could’ve been if Shaq stayed and Penny was healthy.
Moly at the end had me choked up🤣🤣
LMAO Molly getting roasted will never not be funny
If the magic had won a title with Dwight Howard I don’t think this would have ever happened
The business of basketball! Shaq is a good person to be connected to!
Love Molly's last comment there, quietly and with disgust, "nice little shooter."
That banner having the wrong font is a travesty.

DAWG lol
LMFAO
Molly at the end gave me chills 😂😂
That Nice little shooter at the end killed me
Penny should be next followed by D12 & Tmac
As a child of the 90s I don’t think people understand how popular the Charlotte hornets and Orlando Magic were in the early-mid 90s. Shaq and Penny were the faces of the league behind MJ at the time. No gave AF about the magic pre-shaq and they’ve at least been on the basketball radar ever since. Dude literally changed the entire perception of that franchise
He was only there for 4 years.
Why wouldn't we understand it just like u
As a Magic reporter so grateful I was there to witness it
He made them relevant in the way they never were before they appreciate it
Orlando loves Shaq and Shaq loves Orlando.
It gotta be Dwight Howard
Nobody wants that number anymore 😂
As a Floridian born and raised in the O, Shaq helped make Orlando a city to be proud of. Yes he left for LA but if you know the truth behind why, the Magic are doing him right in this regard. Congrats to the big man! Go Magic 🪄
Congratulations to shaq and Patrick on this historical month for both being part and making good history for their culture and people. Much love
scott skiles!!! LMAO
He's best player in franchise history end of discussion
Dwight is
@@jamesoyawusi1791 Dwight is the greatest player in franchise history he wasn't a better player than Orlando Shaq
Dwight was a better magic player
No he is not.
That's Dwight.
@@BigBrody-yv5bo u are dumb if you think that
Molly @ the end Nice Little Shooter 😅
Great take by Mad Dog.
Everybody screaming Dwight I get it. But see the way time works is like Shaq was there first so he gets it first. Penny and Dwight will be next.
Facts they talking as if they won't get in they definitely going in
With the stuff Dwight’s got going on will it happen? 💀
Tmac also
Dwight has not officially retired.
Shaq was there first... which is why they wanted til their 35th anniversary to celebrate him.
Sees legit.
if shaq doesn't become who he became, there's no way he gets a jersey retired for those 4 years
Uh…he already was that…
I’m from nz and Shaq jersey for magic was a must buy here.
Shaq’s 4 years in Orlando made them one of the most popular teams globally.
I think this is a situation where its more about the lack of historical talent of the Magic than it is the legacy of Shaq. They haven't had enough players to really retire a number (Penny and Dwight possibilities) so Shaqs 4 years are the best they can do
“Ok it’s Valentine’s Day be nice “ lol mollys pretty funny not gonna lie
how is that pretty funny old man?
After she starts an argument with him.
@@lilgreghill1234I think that's funny?
Shaq is still a very much loved in Orlando. His mom has been living here ever since he came here. They never moved she’s still in the same house in North East Orlando.
Breaking the basketball
goal is crazy 😂
They should also talk about how Miami retired Jordan's number. Let's just admit that Florida is just wild 🤣
Yea I thought that was wild too. He was only there for 2 years
“Nice shooter”☠️☠️☠️
Nice little shooter was crazy
She was in complete shock sas agreed with mad dog. Great televison.
Stephen a saying you pay for this at night 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂
He’s going to clap those 🍑
This whole segment was just so sas can say he was at shaqs house.
That's about 27% of the segments. So SAS can say MJ called him or he talked to so and so...
No.
@@thsu8 lmao he has to let the common folk know lol
Molly at the end 😂😂😂of
the ending lol
Everyday Stephen a puts a new player in the top ten all time list , ridiculous!
He had him in the top ten a while ago, though.
Shaq is an all-time great and contributed to Magic’s organization, how much more do you need to do, if you compare to others who been there long without anything else
He didn't do more than Dwight tbh
Omg, he "contributed"??
@davyjoneslocker4859 shaq does way more for orlando than just basketball my guy he deserves jersey retired
Pistol Pete was an absolute monster back in the day.
Really gonna end it with Molly saying “Nice little shooter”? lol
Shaq’s Magic were the last team to beat the MJ Bulls in the playoffs.
I mean, context is key for that.
National media Orlando Magic hatred continues.
6:12 I never thought I'd agree with Molly more than ever on this one Mad Dog 😂😂
Crazy one of the most iconic jerseys ever he was only there for 4 years
I wish Stephen A's hairline could pull up from FORTY.
It's gotta 7'5 wingspan
😂😂😂
it pulled back from 40 😂
🤣🤣🤣
As someone who has worked for the Orlando Magic for 11 years and has lived in Orlando for 15. Shack is basically the unofficial mayor of this town.
Y’all are dumb then
Nobody cares
The CEO and Chairman of the Magic literally said the reason why they're retiring Shaq's jersey last night. How could you take mad dog seriously if he said steph is a nice shooter.
Why is the lady in red there? Lol
He’s the best player in franchise history but he shouldn’t have had his jersey retired? What does that even mean lol
So molly are the Celtics gonna retire shaqs jersey next? Jesus h Christ
Magic retiring his jersey and the Celtics retiring his jersey are not even comparable.
@@haydennyagah706 how? Because he played 3 more seasons in Orlando?
If he had been the only player in franchise history to bring em to a finals you’d have a point
But Howard did it too so nah D-12 deserved it before Shaq
@@freddycorrea7281 Dwight isn't officially retired yet. Dwight's going to get his jersey retired too at some point but before Dwight, it was Shaq. Shaq deserved it.
Stats and the impact he had don’t lie!
wait now I agree somewhat with what they are saying, except for him saying Shaq didn't put Orlando on the map...
😂 Stephen Curry is not Top 5 NBA players of all-time. Top 5 shooters of all time.
This makes sense
Shaq doesnt deserve it. He has always been overrated.
I’m curious on why you think he’s overrated
well you’re quite stupid aren’t you
@@MOE__he never played defense in his life
😢
A lot of great players are bad on defense
SA got a call from Tex Johnson after that segment.
My great grandma who 48 just yelled PENNY DESERVED THAT MORE YALL.
Great grandma 48? How old are you? 😂
Your great grandmother? How old is your grandmother? 36? Your mother? 24?
Dude, the women in your family are all super 304s if your great grandmother is 48.
The way madd dogg stuck in the 1930s is krazy
I agree I was confused af

“Oh I was right?” 😂
Nah I was in Orlando he made a name for himself in Orlando. He took us to the our first playoffs. He used to be in Firestone club with us he was always a down to earth person. It’s in Orlando where I was amazed at shaq.
All I have to say is that watching Shaq and Penny play in the 90's was absolute magic (no pun intended).
LMAOOOO MAD DOG IS HILARIOUS
Shout-out to Shaq he deserves that honor. He has a big heart with all people.
Molly's "nice little shooter" at the end
Doggie has a point‼️
Dwight had a better career as a magic player then shaq, this is crazy. 🤦🏿♂️
Start looking at all the retired ones in history and start stat counting
Shots fired
Man it's something, Shaq is on the Mt Rushmore on two organisations he played for "Miami Orlando"and the one that he had the most success he doesn't make the cut..."Lakers".
Mad dog is sooo spot on this one…
Yea I agree with Madd Dog on this one
00:57-Hilarious!!
The Most Dominant
maDDog dressed for St Patrick's Day. lol🤣
Regardless of how long he played with the Magic and whether they won a championship or not he's still the greatest player that franchise has ever had. You gotta retire his jersey
WRONG!!
That would be DWIGHT HOWARD!!
More years
More All Stars
More DPOYs
