Shaquille O’Neal shared his thoughts on whether LeBron James and the Lakers can create a dynasty after winning the 2020 NBA title.
The NBA Hall of Famer believes the 2020 title could be the beginning.
“Well, a dynasty only occurs when you win two or three in a row. This will be a start. People asked me who I was rooting for. I think I’m one of the only guys in the country who was saying that whatever team wins, I’m happy for them.
If the Heat were to win, I think, having been part of that team, it would be great for the franchise and I’d be happy for them. The Heat—they’ve got a great team, know how to compete—and they don’t get pushed around.
And I knew that if the Lakers (won) I’d be happy for the team, and for the owner Jeanie Buss, and also for the city of Los Angeles. L.A. and the franchise have been through a lot this last year, especially with losing Kobe, so it means a lot for the city.
And in winning, the Lakers would be tied with the Boston Celtics on championships, for the all-time best NBA team,” O’Neal said during an interview with Andy Frye of Forbes.
