Hack-A-Shaq

In the NBA, a strategy teams use against NBA player Shaquille O'Neal when they're losing late in the game by putting him at the free throw line, where he is notoriously known as a poor free throw shooter, in the hopes that he misses one or two so they can get back in the game. Another variation is the "Hack-A-Ben", or using the same strategy as described above for Pistons center Ben Wallace, who is also known as a very poor free throw shooter.
The Pistons tried the Hack-A-Shaq but their comeback attempt failed, and they lost the game by 3.

hack a shaq

A tactic used to intentionally foul Shaquille O'Neal (or another player with a poor free throw shooting percentage, such as Ben Wallace) before the last 2 minutes of a basketball game. This strategy slows down the pace of the game, and is not what basketball was intended to be played like. This tactic is useless with less than 2 minutes, because the team that was fouled can then choose which player goes to the free throw line.
