Yeah? If Shaq was so great, then why did we have a hard time finding teams that would accept him in trade? I'm talking about a Nowitzki trade.
The truth is that Shaq is overpaid and clearly not worth the money. For the $30 million he's demanding he should be making every singe one of those freethrows. The Hack-a-Shaq was becoming the Laker's weakness, one hit on the big fellow would send him to the line, causing an instant turnover because everyone knows he misses them.
The only great thing about Shaq is his domminance, but what good is that, when he is beginging to miss his layups as well?
Clearly, for $30 million, we could and should have better players.
DOWN WITH SHAQ!
