    Shaq asking for 30 mil a year isn't amazing, screw him and his work ethic.

    He has some of the best work ethic in the game when he wants something, too bad he doesn't use it all the time.

    Congrats to Pau!

    Congrats to Gasol, definitely well deserved.

    Should be interesting to see Phil coaching Kobe and Shaq again. Should be more interesting to see Shaq and Kobe on the same team again.

    Shaq winning 3 titles with the Lakers is insanely amazing. Shaq named MVP of the NBA Finals in three Laker titles (2000, 2001, 2002) is insanely amazing. You can't even measure how amazing it is.

    What does this have to do with me saying screw him? He's not a saint, few players are. I'll criticize him as needed.

    Shaq's positives out weigh the negatives by far from a Laker fan perspective. You are free to say "screw Shaq" and I am free to disagree. He is a very important piece of this team history and legacy. Kobe is not a saint, Phil is not a saint, Gasol is not a saint and I don't see you saying "screw Kobe" or anything like that.

    I don't remember when I said Shaq was a scrub as a player, what I'm saying is completely different. You don't get it.

    Melo and Al Jefferson were snubbed.

    You're making all sorts of assumptions you don't even understand about me. No duh they're not saints, the point is still over your head though. He deserves some blame that I don't hear him get called out on too often.

    Well, you sure didn't try hard enough to explain you motivations to say "screw Shaq". Tell me your reasons, maybe I will agree with you.

    When I say "Screw Shaq" I'm not saying Pau Gasol or someone I like is necessarily better than him. Everything has been explained already.

    Shaq is a prick. He told the owner, the franchise, the city of Los Angeles and the fans to fuck off. He did the same thing in Orlando and then again in Miami. You can bet he'll do it again after his contract ends in Phoenix.
