SHAQ DIDNT WANT/NEED TUTORING.. HE WAS PRETTY MUCH DEVELOPED OUT OF COLLEGE.

Lol Shaq is probably the least credible person when it comes to this kind of stuff.

PRETTY MUCH


SHAQ IS A BITTER GUY. HE GETS EMOTIONAL QUICK. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT HE NEVER REACHED OUT TO KAREEM, AND HE EXPECTED KAREEM TO JUST COME KISS HIS ASS AND OFFER HIM MENTORING.

IT EVEN SAYS IN THE ARTICLE:

This episode has everything to do with both Abdul-Jabbar's introverted and often downright unfriendly personality as well as Shaq's own insecurities. After all, Abdul-Jabbar sounded more than willing to help Bynum as a Lakers special assistant coach when he was approached about it. It also reveals the mixed reception O'Neal received among former and current centers.

^^


BASICALLY, SHAQ IS A PRIMADONNA, AND HE EXPECTS EVERY1 TO COME KISS HIS ASS....HE DOESNT UNDERSTAND THAT IN KAREEM'S EYES, U GOTTA EARN HIS RESPECT. U GOTTA GO UP 2 HIM AND ASK HIM, "HEY, CAP, HOW CAN I DO THIS BETTER" OR WHAT NOT...SHAQ WAS SUPPOSED 2 REACH OUT 2 HIM, BUT HE HAS 2 BIG OF A EGO AND IS VERY INSECURE.


BYNUM IS MORE SIMILAR TO CAP IN PERSONALITY, SO HE UNDERSTOOD THAT HE HAD 2 REACH OUT 2 HIM IF HE WANTED HIS HELP.
