Boob hates Kemp. When I mention that Shawn gave back $30M to Paul Allen and left because he wasn't earning it, Boob just continues on, saying that the money didn't affect the cap, his stardom didn't re-emerge in Orlando, etc.
If Kobe was to miss his next 5,000 free throws in a row, he would still have a better free throw percentage than Shaq.
