Reposted on: 21.7.11 0818.07 | Ahem...cough. As long as we're on the subject of NBA Championships, WHO are the current reigning champs?? Who waxed Shaq's team when he had those other 3 Hall of Famers on his team? Uh-huh. Now, can you dig THAT, beeyotch?
That said, Shaq's entrance to the press conference and subsequent speech was hilarious. Easily the most entertaining athlete - off the court - in sports today.

Agreed. He seemed to be completely different from the whiny, egotistical Shaq I knew of in LA.

Reposted on: 21.7.11 2148.03 | Shaq's gonna bring the Heat a title, but not this year. Wade needs a year to get used to life with the big man. I give them two or three years before they hoist the crown. Reverend, the Pistons are still the team to beat until the Heat come around.
Shaq was funny during the press conference...think he's happy to have gone from the walking headache that is Kobe to the "Just want to make Shaq a happy player" attitude of Wade? Think he's happy to go from L.A. to the comparably quiet city of Miami? I think so indeed. | Net Hack Slasher
