Shaq would go where he would make an impact (whatever that means to you). He'd rather get attention in San Antonio than go back to LA and share it.

I can picture him going to the

Spurs
Knicks
Lakers
Boston

I think Shaq at the MLE is a good deal, especially for a team that can bring him off the bench. It won't be the Lakers though because we need a point guard first.

LOL @ him and Howard being "buddies".


He'll go to Orlando and then back-peddle on all his past statements saying that he was preaching the tough love angle. Then he'll take credit for Dwight's development.

Hell no, Kobe needs to win as many rings without that Shaq-ass. Besides, Shaq will demand the MLE or higher.

We can use the MLE and veteran's minimum to improve our bench and sign multiple players who fear/respect Kobe Bryant. The list includes players like Tracy McGrady, Raja Bell, Mike Miller, Luke Ridnour, Kurt Thomas, Tony Battie, etc. Once Lakers repeat this season, we'll have a whole list full of vets wanting to chase rings on the Kobe wagon.

Shaq is more likely to join owl city than he is the lakers at this point.

This was actually moved from the GB. ( by me) since it was more Laker specific.

That being said, do you ever contribute to RGM or just comment on what you think is a good/bad thread/post?

Our MLE would be needed for a pg- something we actually need. Other than that... still no.

No thanks. Shaq is now quite literally the "Old ball and chain" :lol:

His downside far outweighs his upside....aka hes got a huge buttocks and just takes up space on the court and on the bench.

Call it a career Shaq and stop trying to glomb onto the next team you perceive has a chance to win it all.

I harken back to a pre-retirement Barkely who pretty much did the same thing.

Time to come up with one last nick name....

THE BIG GERITOL :D
