As the fan pointed out in Shaq’s comment section, the Big Aristotle was pretty bad at free throws. Although he is one of the greatest players ever, he had one major flaw.

More often than not, opposition teams used O’Neal’s flaw to their advantage. They developed the ‘Hack-a-Shaq’ tactic which comprised fouling Shaq on purpose.

This forced him to the free throw line. O’Neal being horrible at free throws would miss a lot of chances and the teams used this to their advantage. 

The four-time NBA champion shot 52.7 percent from the free throw line during his glorious NBA career. His flaw did not hold him back as he left the league with a glamourous trophy cabinet.
