Yeah, you will. Shaq just fouled out last game, matter of fact.


it's the Lakers.. of course the Lakers will get their share of the calls


See rdtx, you have the superstar's mentality. You never give in to anyone.

He isn't calling out anyone. He is boo hooing about comments Bosh made. Truth hurts.


The Truth? You don't seem to know anything about it.

Bosh said the ref's weren't calling Shaq for 3 in the key. That's the Truth.

Shaq compared Bosh to a cross-dressing Hermies. Not the Truth.

Bosh shouldn't have bothered to make excuses but at the same time I still can't fathom how he holds much responsibility for guarding the biggest, strongest C in league history.



Read much? Shouldn't reading comprehension be a necessity on these boards? Not so I guess. My mistake.

bosh was more about the 3 second thing, but yeah. Plenty of bigmen have complaints

coaches too. Jeff VanGundy is definitely in the "it's an offensive foul" camp listening to him that game. Which phoenix wouldn't have won without those no calls

meh

the one I feel sorry for is Ruphaul. He/she has to wake up today to the news and think "wtf? I'm STILL a punchline?"

In this day and age to be called out for "CHEATING" means you better be right, and it better not be one play.

Maybe the best comeback in the media game this season! Kudos Now they have both fired shots through the media and Shaq has done it on the court. It is Bosh turn to do it on the court before SHaq is 50

I counted three seconds on Shaq 8 times during that game and he was in the paint for 6 at one time!! Bosh can get his 20/9 without the help of the refs. Shaq and Dwight are very similiar and I think the refs have been rigging games for a long time and I don't even know why I bother to watch it. I hope Bosh reponds he didn't even say Shaq cheated Chris took a shot at the refs not that mofo. Shaq is big fat clown on the court, he gave up on Miami and it pisses me off to see him act like he is still a all-star or top 20 player in the game.

The comprehension on this board. 8-)

That apprehension comment has to be one of the finest faux pas on this board. I think I will have to refer to that poster as Mrs. Malaprop from now on.

A year ago, this thread would all be anti-Shaq. By page 12, Shaq's address and phone numbers would be posted and mods would be telling us they've been threatened by Shaq's legal team.

We had Shaq in foul trouble our first meeting. Like, he had two fouls withing the first 3 minutes of the game. He had a technical in that game. He fouled out against us. He only played like 24 minutes in that game.

What I'm trying to say is, you CAN get calls against Shaq. We proved it earlier this year.

Classic. Just classic.

The first rule of calling other people dumb is, make sure you don't sound dumb while saying it.

Raps culture is to look for faults in everyone but in the mirror. Raps focused on Shaq's offense all game, wondering how to stop him.

Not once did it occur to them that the way to stop Shaq is on the other end of the floor.

I agree it was a mess up on my account. Huge brainfart...and big example of malapropism. I apologize. Don't make me an "escapegoat" though.

Maybe I should edit the post. ROFL.
