Comments on: Shaq practiced and he’ll play. Eventually. Maybe not Game 1. http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/04/29/shaq-practiced-and-he%e2%80%99ll-play-eventually-maybe-not-game-1/ Basketball - NBC Sports Mon, 20 May 2013 16:45:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: omniusprime http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/04/29/shaq-practiced-and-he%e2%80%99ll-play-eventually-maybe-not-game-1/comment-page-1/#comment-39235 Sat, 30 Apr 2011 14:38:11 +0000 http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=22568#comment-39235 Now we see just how utterly stupid it was of Danny Ainge to trade away Perkins during the season, not weeks after he made this moronic move then Shaq gets injured and hasn’t played since. Having the Big 4 big players gave them the best chance to match up against the Repeat World Champion Lakers Big Three Bigs, now they’re going to have to be the masters of small ball. Jermaine O’Neal is soft and with no Shaq or Perk it’s going to be nearly impossible for Garnett and Davis to protect the paint whole games.

Anyone who thinks that the Celtics-Heatstroke series is what we’ve been waiting for is the epitome of the saying – Simple Things Amuse Simple Minds! No what we’ve been waiting for is the Lakers Celtics rubber match NBA Finals! Thanks Danny for ruining chances of this historic matchup, but then the Heatstroke may not be able to take advantage of a much smaller Ancient Celtics team because Queen James, Dimbulb Wade and Beanpole Bosh are still playoff chokers of the first order. Rose and the Bulls will get all scratched up if they fall into the Laker’s Briarpatch full of thorns.

I mean is this guy even relevant anymore? And when he does return, are we all out there supposed to drop our jaws and expect 14/6/3 (or some numbers like that) from
him?

Seriously. Because this guy sucks. Bad.
