    This isn't the 2007 all star game. All 4 are not the same who they once were. Perkins' injury is pretty serious, he won't be the same enforcer he was for another full year of recovery and rehab

    I actually forgot about Perkins' injury. Either way, that's still a formidable front court rotation, defensively.

    Imagine if all of them we're in their prime, how sick that defense would have been down low, and how easily they will dominate down low...But they're not. So let's move on to the next subject...Heat? Lakers? Cp3?

    Except against maybe Yao, Andrew Bynum and Dwight Howard, Shaq is pathetic as a defender at this point in his career. JO is exactly what the Celts need on defense if he stays healthy.

    Shaq is so slow now it isn't funny. He is death to PnR defense. If he goes there, I bet the Celts have the same experience as the Cavs and their +/- will sink like a stone when Shaq is on the floor.

    Too bad if they were in their prime, Boston couldn't afford them.

    Is Shaq trying to beat Chucky Brown's record? (or Tony Massenburg)

    I predict Shaq has a great year....not old Shaq great....but better than the last few years Shaq.

    If my prediction is wrong....then he shall then....waddle off into the sunset.

    i really hope it happens.

    i would seriously add boston to orlando as the two teams that could beat miami.

    shaq and garnett would seriously put bosh in the hospital.

    Lol, I can see the Celts signing him too. They can never have too many old players way past their prime. Of course though when you put them all together it's always a pretty good team that is also hungry and know what it takes to win.
