In this “entertaining, controversial and funny” book, Shaq “recounts his life story, from his childhood in Newark through winning the 2000 NBA Championship” (Publishers Weekly).
It’s rare to discover a candid sports autobiography—even rare when the author is one of the most recognizable athletes in the world. But in Shaq Talks Back, Shaquille O’Neal for the first time talks frankly about his childhood, his life, his rivalries, and his career, culminating in a dramatic, behind-the-scenes account of the Los Angeles Lakers’ drive to the NBA Championship.
Beginning with his memory of crying on the court after the Lakers defeated the Indiana Pacers, Shaq takes us back to his younger days in Newark and Jersey City, New Jersey, then to Georgia and finally to Germany, where he began to harness some of his height and strength.
From there, he recounts the remarkable progress of his basketball career, changing from a big but inexperienced teenager to a dominant college and professional player. Shaq talks about:
