One has to the irony in Shaq getting pissed at being called fat and lazy by showing up 30 lbs lighter and in shape to prove he wasn’t fat and lazy with the Lakers?

In all honesty Shaq is on his way down and it will take a minor miracle for him to play 45 games this year. The Lakers were smart to get rid of him when he still had some value and not extend his contract for 30 million a year.

You may also want to note a similarity between the Heat and Lakers Championship, when time was winding down and the game was on the line, the ball wasn’t in Shaq’s hands. Super-star caliber players dominate when it matters most.

Phil’s just mad that Shaq won another championship without him, proving that Shaq doesn’t need him. I’m glad Shaq showed his worth.
Maybe the Lakers are just realizing what they gave up and what a dumb move it was, trading the most dominant player in the game. Kobe thought he could do it himself so let him try !

Who gave Shaq the nickname “Big Aristotle?” He doesn’t look Greek, or would anyone mistake him for any kind of philosopher. What, “Kazam!” didn’t stick?

He seems to be making an observation. Why is that bashing? Shaq is known to not work out in the summer and is usually out of shape by the start of the season.

Actually the Kobe-led Lakers are 18-10 right now, which seems to me to be pretty good especially in the Western Conference (they’d be tied for first in the East).

But yeah, not sure what Phil’s trying to do bashing Shaq like that.
