Even Shaquille O’Neal wonders, “What if?”What if, after spending the first four seasons of his NBA career with the Orlando Magic, he hadn’t signed a free-agent deal to join the Los Angeles Lakers in 1996?

O’Neal made his tantalizing comments late Friday afternoon, after the franchise inducted him into the Orlando Magic Hall of Fame.
