    Someone in the organization or a fan got a hold of Shaq's 20,000 point game ball and wrote some harsh words on it. What a jerk!

    Here's the whole article:

    You just woke up a sleeping giant Sacramento, as demonstrated by his monster night last night.

    haha...i think not. thats exactly what was said when the kings beat the lakers on christmas. scoring 48 on a weakened east team is a lot different from facing the kings D. shaq looks like hes afraid of the kings now which is why hes felt the need to talk so much trash about them all year

    Funny, how he says that "whoever did this has no class." He is not one to be talking about class, after all his comments during the season.

    I think it was wrong for what they did, BUT, Shaq can NOT talk about somebody NOT having class, with the comments he made about their Manhood, and Bibby making the USA team, in which he was wrong. I think they are both wrong, People who say the Kings are wrong, and Shaq is not, or those who say Shaq is wrong and the Kings were not, they both have no class. I think Shaq was wrong for his comments during the off season/about Mike Bibby, and I also thing the Kings fan was wrong. but its funny though how people trip when the tables get turned..... (as they laughed when Shaq made his comments but they get angry when this is done....)

    Good points. But I think Shaq talking trash is less harsh than defacing his accomplishment.

    I do have to agree there. Valdelizing is worse than talking.

    Even if Shaq is disrespecting the Kings and Bibby, I don't think it warrants someone defacing a piece of basketball history. Do you?

    These players have grown up talking trash and getting called much worse. They are for the most part professional about dealing with the trash talking and just zoning it out.

    I think whoever defaced the ball stepped over the line.

    talking trash is actually a part of basketball, we see it all the time from nba great Gary Payton. Shaq earned the right by being able to talk trash to any team he wants. Any player that does what he does can call the Sacremento Queen exactly what they are.

    thank you i be here all the week.



    i dont think a bunch of queens could wint he finals wihchc is what sacramento might do this year. talking trash is a part of basketball ON THE COURT, but no coach wants his players running around mouthing off on camera creating a big distraction, thats what shaq did and the lakers struggled mightily at the start of the season

    fact of the matter is...

    you still have to use the terms 'could' and 'might' to describe Sacramento's Championship success...
