O'Neal showed off his understanding of how to let the game come to him, never over dribbling or forcing his offense but playing within the flow of the game and the energy of the ball movement. Great shot selections and very mature game, his high-level basketball IQ and anticipation for the play or what should be happening showed that he's been around the game forever and watches a ton of film. O'Neal had a consistent style of play throughout the entirety of the game, using his unwavering motor to touch every facet of the game and check off every box on the stat sheet.
