Snippet:
"I love playing for this coach and I love playing with these guys," said O'Neal yesterday. "We have professionals who know what to do. No one is asking me to play with Chris Quinn or Ricky Davis. I'm actually on a team again."
The once-blissful marriage between Shaq and Riles ended badly. As their championship core crumbled, so did their relationship. Heat officials believe Shaq quit on them and point to his chronic hip problems that prevented him from playing in Miami but have not stopped him from averaging 29.3 minutes a night with the Suns. Conversely, Shaq believes Riley quit on him and saddled him with the blame for the franchise's implosion.
"I guess when you have a lot of power, you can do what you want," O'Neal said. "Me? If I ever came into that kind of power, I think I'd be willing to admit it if I messed up."
"I have not left any of the teams on good notes," O'Neal said. "We players have our own little fraternity. We talk about stuff, so I've got to figure the coaches do, too. They are probably saying I'm an [expletive]. So I came to Phoenix prepared to show them what kind of person I am."

LOL...this is the same guy who said Pat Riley was his greatest coach ever (as a shot at Phil Jackson).
-
Same story different team. Won't take long before this starts happening in Phoenix too.
-
^ you beat me to the punch... I was just about to say that it's only a matter of time before we hear that D'Antoni is the biggest piece of crap that he's ever played for.
-
^If he brings a championship to Phoenix first, I think it's a fair trade.
-
^If he brings a championship to Phoenix
cocaine is a helluva drug

^LOL...I was thinking more along the lines of a crack/heroin/speed/pcp combination.

You guys act as if I said that the Suns are going to win a championship. ::)

This is the thing I have a problem with, why call out teammates by name? Ricky Davis and Chris Quinn aren't the reason Miami sucked. If people STILL can't see this guy is a cancer then they just don't want to see it.
I give Pat Riley his credit cuz I remember last season he said "if Shaq wants to take off half the season thats fine but he needs to give us half of his season earnings".
Off-topic: NIK, whats up with the quotes you were gonna post a while back about Shaq's problems in the Orlando days?

I still didn't get around to that, man...I'll do it when I got some extra time.

What a douche, and Ricky Davis (who came off the bench) was a better scorer than his fat ass

The question is this: Does NIK hate Shaq more than he loves Kobe? I say yes. So much negativity NIK, you should consult "The Secret" immediately.
Come to think of it, I haven't liked my last few bosses either. Fuck authority. Get em Shaq.

Talking about a coach is one thing but to call your former teammates that never did anything to you is bullshit

Ricky Davis 7/10 from beyond the arch with 28 pts today

lol, how do you know his former teammates never did anything to him? Bottom line is, everybody tryin to take issue w/ what he said doesn't know the deal and its all speculation anyway.
I mean shit, Kobe shitted on Bynum hard as hell and snitched on Shaq to the po po.
That really is the most pathetic shit, snitchin on your teammate to the police about gettin ass on the side. Kobe loses again.

Yeah I guess there's no way of knowing if they did anything to him but it seems like he was just criticizing their play for no reason

i can see where shaqs coming from
but he should just let the past go. granted ricky davis is an idiot you don't NEED to call anybody out. atleast you can call out someone who matters.
but maybes theres more to this than the media is reporting. things were gravy last year so who knows.

Shaq was great in his prime and a legendary icon... but he's blatantly a selfish ass asshole. Read this and understand why us Laker fans don't like the dude who dissed us fans and shitted all over our city with no hesitation.

First of all, Kobe instilled inspiration and motivation in Bynum...it obviously proved to work, so get out of here with that BS. All the GOATS were hard on their teammates, including Jordan. That's what seperates the great players from the legendary ones..and he never "snitched" on Shaq.. snitching involves getting someone in trouble by stating the unknown. Everyone and their mama knew about Shaq's sexual escapades, where he would buy off his girls by spoiling them with gifts and cash. As for him trashing his teammates (once again), it's not like this is the first time he's doing it.. he has a history of doing this. LMAO@tryna blame Chris Quinn...PeACe

Whatever, Kobe completely shitted on Bynum "Ship his fucking ass out". Kobe shitted on the Lakers FO too. And you can tell yourself all day that Kobe didn't snitch to the po po, but it's a fact that he did. And your other excuse why it's not snitching is that everybody already knew about it? LMFAO. I sure as hell didn't know about it. So that right there IS snitchin by your own definition.
My point is that this shit goes on with all players, yall tryin to act like Shaq is the only one that does this, and it further reinforces that yall are like broads whining about the dude that left you. I'm just trying to help.

if the Lakers had kept Shaq and traded Kobe they could've extended their dynasty a nice 3-4 years
now the west is loaded with talent and no team is dominant (besides boston hehe)

You sound like a scorned woman

He said that if you can get a veteran superstar for Bynum, then ship his ass out. Bynum wasn't putting in the work at that point, and after he heard that, well...you know what happened next. As far as Bynum's play is concerned, Kobe is a boss for that move. As for the "snitching", just because you didn't know that Shaq paid off his women doesn't mean it wasn't a well-known fact around the league. Anyone coulda picked up a book and read all about it. Kobe used it as an example, not as a means of getting Shaq in trouble. That's not snitching. The cops leaked the interview when they weren't supposed to, so you finding out about it wasn't even supposed to happen to begin with...But regardless, what does this have to do with Shaq being a selfish asshole who shits on everyone? I don't think any of his former teammates like him as a person...so what does that tell you? Stop defending the big baby jerk. He would even shit on you if he could benefit out of it.
