How would the Cavs do if you added the 2008 version of Shaq to that team?

How do they do against Boston, Detroit and LA?

Lineup
PG West
SG Szczerbiak
SF Lebron
PF Wallace
C Shaq/Big Z


NOTE: Shaq was a 14/8 guy in 2008

Ummm, why is Mo gone and Wally starting? Why Detroit and not Orlando?

And anything is better than how Z played against Howard, so that series would be closer (7 game series either way). They would still lose to LA though. They would beat Boston in the playoffs regardless if KG was there or not. (Edit: this is assuming Mo Will is in lineup).

The OP means in the 2007-2008 season (when Cavs lost to the Celtics in the second round)
