CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES COMMON! THERES A PARTY GOING ON RIGHT HERE, CELEBRATION TO LAST AROUND THE YEAR!
Bout F*cking time Riley. I have never questioned this man until this year. All shaq did was free up the double tea, on wade and our 3 point shooters. Shit what three point shooters? Oh thats right, Posey, Kapono, Jones were all too expensive cause we were paying 20 mil a year to a man who plays exponentially less games and minutes by the day.
Dont get me wrong, I loved having the big man, but he needed to go fast before this team wins 15 games all year. If anyone dares to say that Shaq won us a ring I say SHAME! SHAME ON YOU!
The only playoff game shaq did anything was game 5 against the bulls, aside from that, it was the "slugs" are Barkley called them and D wade averaging 35 a game in the Finals.
To me all shaq did was sell tickets and free the D wade double team, but he was never the important "backbone" of our team. That was Zo. When Zo went down how many games did shaq win for us?
Shaq became too old, to fat, to slow and too lazy last season for me and I was fearing his price tag would screw up our personnel decisions for the next two years.
As far as the trade itself, I dont know who banks is, but I would of even giving them someone else with shaq to get Marion. This team NEEDS a thee point threat who can play De and give wade some help on that offense. Plus his contract will be up after this year so we dont even need to resign him.
Bottom line was Shaq was killing our team. Riles knew this and needed a clean break, and we got one. Now with a nice draft pick this year and a but load of cap space we can bring in some quality players next year and watch D-Wade try for ring number 2.
And im spent.
And F*ck the pistons :P
