Did we forget when Shaq left a GOOD A$$ Magic Team to go with the Lakers....

[young_reezy]

Lol Yo you missing the point....

no you missing the point or whatever point you tryna make aint makin sense, Magic Johnson didn't pick what team he went to he got drafted, u understand.

when shaq went to L.A. they didn't have a superstar caliber player waiting in the wings, they had a few ok players, eddie jones and van exel may have been all-stars at one point but not prime time players like a D. Wade,

add to the fact that shaq wasn't comming to a team even that had another all-star on the way right along with him.

true enough shaq left a young team who drafted him like leBitch, but it wasn't going to the same type of situation.

add to the fact that when shaq went to L.A. it was basically his team.

leBitch is going to a team to play second fiddle like he always wanted to be, a good player but he never wanted to be "THAT" guy because he has a broke jumper that is streaky, and he has a sorry excuse for a heart.

Aight so since Kobe is good as Lebron He got the rings and shit........Lets say West didnt make that trade for Kobe who didnt want to play with the Hornets.....Bron took Cavs as far as any player could....lol Kobe been pacified since he came in

you can say what if's all day but the truth is you don't know what kind of situation that would have been the hornets could have been a sub 500 team with kobe the first year or so then got a number one draft pick and picked up a guy like tim duncan, we can talk what if's all day , the truth is LeBitch is not made to be the number one guy, and he doesnt want to be, he always needed more help with the cavs, now he has all the help he wanted, no more excuses.

Shaq went to LA to be in Hollywood and win a ring...

Shaq went to LA to be in Hollywood period. He had a better team in Orlando they were on the brink.

i don't i dont even know playboy at all, he seems like a cool nigga, he has game like a muthafucka lets not get it twisted, don't get me wrong he can play ball he has good vision out there on the court, but he isn't what everyone thinks he is, i don't know if it's a personality thing or what but he's more of a highlight type player than a hardnose go getter type. he wants to go the easy route and take short cuts not just with this situation it's just somethin about him that don't match up to what everybody is tryna make him out to be.

I rarely use the term "quitting". if a player can't win in his 'home' (lebron) he has to get out. I think the fans are way to emotional, and act like these star athlete owe them something. Shaq did what was in his best interest. The NBA is a business, when teams disregard players nobody says anything to them, but when Lebron left they want to crucify him, there's a double standard, and I'm glad Shaq left and I'm glad Lebron left. Because they have to do what they want nd what right for them, not what some pathetic fan wants.

These ignant niggas ain't trying to hear that......it spews too much logic for their bird brains to understand......

My thoughts exactly

 

[Swiffness!]

the year before Shaq arrived, the Lakers had a 53-29 record, so they weren't terrible

BUT

their best player was Cedric Ceballos, so yes, the premise of this thread is laughable.

Did you forget he didnt do a damn Free Agent tour dead in the middle of Ohio across the street from training facility?

Did you forget he wasnt from there?

Did you forget he didnt have some arrogant ass 1-hour special about "his decision?"

Did you forget from the start he was leading them on saying the Cavs have the edge?

Did you forget just 2-weeks ago he showed up at a Lebron James event and said, "Ohio will always be home..." letting people believe he meant something totally different?

I am enjoying seeing the Cavs fans suffer for entertainment purposes. But this dont have SHIT to do with Shaq. Its not THAT LBJ left its HOW he left. Shit was just cold blooded and arrogant.

^^^ I know right.

And I meant Ohio not Florida.

I can understand people being mad because of that.......but is that reason enough for people to hate and discredit what he has done and may do in the future on the court.........And the people in Leaveland would welcome his black ass back if he was to say he wanted back wit The Cavs....Dan Gilbert would love that, because this is the same person he wanted to resign........
