    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Shaquille O'Neal was not pleased with comments Nets coach Lawrence Frank made about the officiating after Game 3.

    Frank had intimated that O'Neal was getting the star treatment from officials, and as a result, Vince Carter wasn't getting foul calls when he drove.

    Officials called a tight game yesterday. O'Neal picked up his third foul with 5:01 left in the second quarter.

    When asked what he thought about the Nets after the game, O'Neal said: "I don't. And I don't think anything of Laura Frank. You heard me, Laura Frank. Not Lawrence, Laura."</div>

    man true that, that's what always bothered me about Shaq. He always takes cheap shots at many people and never gets fines or criticism.

    Hey, its shaq,although its not fair, it's harmless. and I don't think a big deal should be made out of this at all. In fact I wanna see some trashatlking through the media. that would be fun(within reason, of course)

    naw

    Naw, shaq is just having some fun dont read too much into this. Sometimes shaq does get calls but many times he is judged harder than other players and you have to trust that it will balance out. Laura is just looking for a scapegoat and like many coaches he chose the officials. He should just admit they were outplayed and leave it at that.

    That's what I was talking about in the "That's why we love Shaq" thread. He's obviously a big dummy who is having fun. Look at the Sac "Queens". They know it's just in the game and when he was leaving the Lakers, the Kings looked into it. Don't take him seriously. If Frank is bothered, he shouldn't be an "NBA" coach.

    Shaq isn't displaying some great sense of humor here, he's not that bright. That's his bruised ego talking.

    I thought it was funny. When you get beat on as much as shaq, you probably don't take to kindly to statements like Laura made.

    As much as you may hate Shaq, you got to admit that was funny [​IMG]

    I don't think that he was taking a shot at Lawrence as the thread title suggests. I just think he was suggesting that Lawrence shouldn't be complaining because Shaq is taking a beating in the post as well from all the physical play. But he put it in a funny way for everyone to enjoy [​IMG]. SVG put it in another way: "If that was anyone else it would've been called a foul"
