http://www.nba.com/pacers/news/yearend_oneal_030502.html In the article he said that he wants to win a championship and the 3 teams he is interested in is San Antonio, Orlando, and Indiana. Duncan and O' Neal on one team would dominate.
wow that would make the west even more dominating. imagine o'neal, kidd, and duncan if kidd comes too....thats a lot of speculating but that is just sick.
he should stay in the east if he still wants to put up those numbers and be thought of as top notch. him with mcgrady could be in the finals. of course him and duncan could be in the finals too but he's look better number wise in the east, if he cares. also, stern should just make kidd and o'neal stay in the east. it's getting ridiculous over here. i mean my god, that would be two more east teams down the drain with the west growing ever more powerful. although since they're both looking at the same west team i guess they can't both ruin the east.
I hope he stays in the East. We don't need anymore good PFs in the West. Enough is enough....there is too much talent in the west damn it!
So who plays Center at SA? I thought Duncan is on record as wanting to remain a PF? Orlando already has Gooden at PF. So far, the Magic seem satisfied. IMO, he'll be back at Indy next season...but there is also a possibility the Jazz may wave some big $ at him if Malone leaves or perhaps MJ convinces O'Neal he's building a winner and makes some major deals before Jermaine re-signs.
Impossible, but imagine: PG Kidd SG McGrady SF Jackson PF O'Neal C Duncan I don't even like seeing that.
Um...Hello O'neal plays PF and Center! It is getting out of hand in the West! That would be somethin if SA got O'neal and Kidd it would be Horrible and the Spurs would be on their own dinasty with all off them!! OUCH just thinkin bout it makes it ILL!!
I don't think they are going to get Kidd. They allready have Parker and Speedy Claxton. Still if they do get O' Neal the only team that could stop them is the Rockets, if we get Brand. Think how good a Yao\Brand\Francis vs Duncan\O' Neal\Parker game would be.
O'Neal to San Antonio would open the door for my man Chris Mihm to be an Eastern Conference All-Star at C.
It's interesting how good Jermaine O'neal became. I remember when Portland first drafted him and how he always complained about playing time but I knew he would become a star one day. In the east he plays very well but I would like to see how he does back in the Western conference.
Kidd and Duncan don't have compatible styles of play. The ideal situation for Kidd would be to go to Orlando. If he's having fun throwing alley-oops to K-Mart, he'll be crying tears of joy with T-Mac hovering about the rim.
If Oneal wants a ring he should go to SA. Pairing him with Tmac wouldn't be bad but still wouldn't be good enough, plus he'd have to play center. Anywhere but Indy. He'll never win a ring with him as the #1 option. Ideally, he skips town and blames Thomas for his departure.
