For most of his career Shaquille O'neal has come across as a laughable-lovable guy but truth be told he's a Hater and has always been a Hater. He crapped on Penny Hardaway and the coaching staff on his way out of Orlando, crapped on Phil Jackson-Jerry Buss-Kobe Bryant on his way out of L.A., he crapped on Pat Riley and every player except Dwayne Wade on his way out of Miami and I'm sure he's planning a way to 'rap-####' his way out of Phoenix. That's why I'm going to take a few moments to Hate on him
I'm not a Kobe Bryant apologist and would never pretend to be, I have my own issues with Bryant, mainly his continued lack of on-court maturity despite just completed his 12th NBA season and winning the league MVP award. But somebody has to step up and let Shaq know his recent diss of Kobe, thru some horrible rap lyrics, on his failed attempt to win the NBA Championship against the Celtics is Wack and Immature. I’m sure most of the NBA world thought Shaq and Kobe had reconciled their differences and their most recent actions before every Laker/Heat game proved to be true. But even if they were shaking hands and hugging for purposes of political correctness, their feud is so old that it makes no sense for either one to re-hash old news unless one is extremely jealous and resentful
So I guess that’s where Shaq comes in, The Big Jealous One, how else can you explain it? He wrote one of the worse raps I’ve ever heard and posted it on Youtube for the world to see. He laughed at Kobe losing in the Finals but he fails to realize that if D.Wade doesn’t put up a Superman Effort in the Finals a couple years ago, he wouldn’t be sporting a 4th ring now. Shaq did little to nothing against the Dallas Mavericks; his best effort was sitting on the bench cheerleading the rest of this team to victory. And since we’re on the topic of effort, let’s talk about Shaq’s inability to stay healthy for ¾ of his career; he hasn’t played a full healthy season in 7 years. He’s also never won a scoring title, rebound title, blocking title, 1st team all defensive position, and has never won defensive player of year award. He has won 1 league MVP award but for a guy who says he’s the best center of all time you would think he would have at least 6 or 7. To his credit he did win 3 straight NBA Final MVP’s but that was mainly by default considering he went up against the Pacers Rick Smits, Sixers Mutombo and New Jersey Nets Jason Collins respectively. 2 of the 3 will never be mistaken for a NBA quality center and Dikembe for all intent purposes was well past his prime. The Most Dominant Ever is a joke, if he played during the hey-dey of the 80’s he would be the 6th or 7th best center in the league and for as much as he thinks he was better than Chamberlain, Kareem and Russell during the 60’s and 70’s he’s not even in the same neighborhood let alone block when u talk about those legends
Shaq has already loss his 2 honorable mention Sheriff badges (still don’t know what type of integrity an ‘honorable’ badge carries) and here’s hoping he’ll lose his remaining tenure in the NBA by being ‘waived’ or ‘cut’. Maybe one day Kobe Bryant will write a rap about the Phoenix Suns trade for Shaquille O’neal going down as one of the worst in NBA history (he can rap half of it in Italian and get Tyra Banks to sing back-up again)
P.S. ‘Food for Thought’
Shaquille O'neal and Mike Tyson have 1 thing in common, if nothing else, sports history will prove that they did less with more and were the most overrated athletes of all time. Tyson beat a bunch of no-name boxers during his brief 4-year dominant era and Shaq put up average numbers during the prime of his career (’98-’04) when his biggest Center competition was Rick Smits, Greg Ostertag, Alonzo Mourning and some guy named Vlade Divac (Tim Duncan doesn’t count officially, he played Power Forward, but even still he outplayed Shaq for most of his career)
This is going to add even more fuel to Kobe's fire to win a ring without The Big Chicken####. Kobe will be winning rings long after The Big Chicken#### has retired. I can see Kobe winning multiple rings in the next half decade.
I don't like Shaq, but he has won a scoring title and if it wasn't for him AND Kobe the Lakers wouldn't have won any titles during those 3 years. Shaq will have nothing to say when the Suns aren't making the playoffs or an 8th seed in a couple of years.
Now everybody know that Shag is the big faker and to diss kareem now I know you are stupid for no reason I can say one thing Shag even your wife new ?????? what you were all about and if it wasn't for wade and alonzo you would still have three rings the whole league knows what you are about .......air! very overrated
I find it interesting that Shaq makes fun of Kobe for not being able to win on his own when Shaq himself has yet to win on his own. Shaq needed Kobe the same way he needed Dwayne Wade to shoot free throws in the fourth when Shaq COULDN'T DO IT BY HIMSELF!!!!!!
Let poor Kobe fight his own battle here. The only way he can prove Shaq wrong...well, is to win without him....
Oh, and its not gonna happen folks. He, and the "Fakers" will not win next year.
And, if youo all keep blogging about porr Kobe this way, maybe you all could tell us just o\how Kobe's az tastes...got your damn head so far up there, you should know already.
Shaq dominated Admiral and The Dream (Dream when over the hill) and whenever he faced the Knicks he crushed Ewing. And he dominated the alleged best defender, Dikembe Mutombo. The guy was a beast.
To seriously believe that Shaq is more responsible for the 3 laker rings more than Kobe is ludicrous...he doesn't win those rings without Kobe...there share 50/50...and in relation to his Heat ring, he did barely noting in support of that ring--D.Wade gets %90 credit for that (the other %10 goes to the soft-minded Dallas Mavericks for folding like a deck of cards and letting the Heat blow thru that seires
I wish shaq would have come out with that rap before the Finals started. Change the line to "kobe won't be able to do without me".
Easy to talk #### after the fact. Shaq knows he's at the point in his career where he's basically an embarassment on the court if you compare it to his former self coupled with how much money he makes. It's a desperate act of trying to stay relevant. Really makes him look pathetic. When kobe does get his next ring he'll be better served to not even adress Shaq.
He's childish, immature and much of the same has been said about kobe. Difference is Shaq has and will always get away with alot more cause the media and most fans like him. Can't say the same for kobe.
This comment is to everyone who has commented on here, Or anyone who has watched basketball in the last couple of years. Basketball has been a five man sport for a couple of years already.(were talking in a best of seven series) meaning the whole team is involed. The days of one man taking over the game is over.(has much as everyone wants to live MJ's days). So anyway,has I was saying. Neither Shaq or Kobe would have won without each other.That also includes key players such as Fish,Rick Fox and OT's like horace grant. Not to mention the bench was more productive back then. Neither one has the right to talk JUNK. Has for as Shaq,winning without D-Wade, it would have not happen. Shaq needs another superstar to lighting the load. As for as Kobe winning again, Thats very possible. Especially considering his LAKERS team now.5 MAN ball fish,kobe,odom,gasol and the youngster bynum. Its a very real possiblity. Cant say the same for the Suns. Not with Shaq in the picture. He should just retire and shut his mouth. Me being a KOBE fan, I personally cant wait to able stick in your hating faces. GO LAKERS!!!!!!
thank you charlie, you saved me some writing. this who can't win is a joke told by losers. it's a five man team. and The Lakers are West Confrence Champions. the lost to a better Team this year and won the lesser teams, this year. this blog was not about championships. shaq was just shooting his mouth like he always did. he torches every team he was ever on.
I guess robert horry is the best player he has the most rings. lmao
It is painfully obvious that the LA Unified School District is failing miserably. All of you Kobe lovers are barely literate to the point that your posts are unreadable. Seriously, learn to speak English, or don't put your nonsensical ramblings on a public forum. I feel quite a bit more stupid having read them. That being said, talk #### all you want when the Suns knocked you out in the first round two years in a row.
dream on kobe fans, until kobe wins a championship with him as the leader of the lakers, he cannot brag about anything. all he has is an mvp award, but he cant win a championship for his team. too bad for kobe, basketball is a team sport. and all you guys saying that shaq won it with kobe or shaq won it with wade??? so whats the big deal about that? of course shaq would need teamates to play basketball??? duh??? but has kobe won without shaq? or has wade won without shaq? until they do that, i would still say, lakers and miami won because they were lucky to have shaq. i know that before shaq retires, he will also bring a championship to the suns!!! i love shaq!!!
STOP HATE'N ON SHAQ!! How he feels about kobe is his buisness and for someone to have a blog and talk stuff about shaq and his career is too stupid to realize how dominate he has been andremember he has 4 rings and not 3 like kobe!!! so before you hate on what shaq did you need to understand that you have no rings and he prove he can win a RING with any team and dont worry everybody will start jockin him next season when the suns start kickin A.....s....s, and his age is not a factor but his exprience is!!!!
PF, Your right i will also bet money that kobe will never win another ring in his career, it was a good one but kobe could be PIPPEN but SHAQ will always be the JORDAN!!!
