Laker Fan here and we have all heard the Trade particulars with lots of banter running around, I'd like to know if you Miami locals have any links to any articles that talk about how Grant, Butler, and Odom (as reported involved in the trade) fell about a trade to the left coast??? Thanks in advance!
Grant has stated that he doesn't like it and wants to stay in Miami, but he also said that he understands why they would do this trade for Shaq. As far as Caron and Odom go, i'm not sure I haven't heard anything about them, but I know for a fact that they're most likely pissed off and hate this deal.
What eddie jones said "You don't realize how easy the game is when you have a dominant big man,'' said Jones, who spoke to O'Neal during the weekend. ``I had it, and when you lose it, it's the toughest thing ever. You have to become overly aggressive sometimes. When you have that big guy there, he's going to create layups, open jump shots, and the game is going to be so much easier.''
this what grant said 'We look at it so much as a business and how it really doesn't matter if everybody likes each other, and it's always pushed into that context,'' Grant said. ``But once you've been in the league, you realize that when you have the opportunity to play on a team where everybody respects each other and everybody genuinely likes and cares for one another, that's something that you can't buy. You usually can't put that together. We just sort of struck gold with that.''
