I'm enjoying watching Shaq get embarrassed in the NBA Finals. Last night he only scored 5 points, a career low in post season play. He's been outplayed by the Dampier/Diop duo and he's already starting to point the finger at his teammates. After the Game 1 loss he had this comment "We need to play smarter." This has always been his cryptic code for "You have to feed me the ball more." I'm sure he'll play better in Miami, but if the Mavs continue to embarrass the Heat, I expect Shaq's ego to rear it's ugly head.
I said that to my girlfriend's father last night, "Shaq's ugly ego is going to come out." If Miami loses this series, you can expect some heat on the Heat from Shaq. He'll criticize everybody from Haslem to Riley to Wade. Ah! I'm lovin' it.

Before game 2, Miami's gameplan was for shaq to get the ball like 30-35 times. Instead he got 5 touches. Shaq wouldn't even to talk to his team or the media. He just left the game to the nearest Jack in the box for some nachos. Wasn't Snaq averaging like 30 points and 10 rebounds in the finals? I'll give Snaq 1 maybe 2 more seasons. Then it's time for that 34 to hang in Staples Center.
I think this was Shaq's last "MDE" season. He averaged a career low in points, rebounds, and minutes per game. His body obviously can't take the pounding of 37-42 MPG. Why? Because he never kept himself in Shape. He got lazy and now it's catching up to him. I expect him to average about 17 and 8 next year.

If he wins, it will be really low, he tends to get lazier after each championship he wins.
I don't think he'll drop off more than 3 points from his average this year, next year. He'll get fatter over the offseason, so it'll be easier for him to clog up the paint and easier for him to lay it in.
