he said he's gonna play next year. he's obviously going to chase a championship. the best guess would be to work down the list of contenders. he's ruined his relationship with the lakers and the suns. the celtics and magic don't have any playing time for him, and he's leaving the cavs. the most logical destinations would be the mavs or spurs.
shaq's still better than half the starting centers in the nba. it's impossible he wont get an offer from anywhere. he could get anywhere from MLE to 8M but id think the offers would only be for a year.
I know he's 37 and his accomplishments puts him in the top 1% of NBA players ever. But he should devote SOME time into conditioning if he's serious about playing effectively. His skill wont be there, but he can be a good player with 20 lbs less on him.
Perhaps a future in this? http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/blog/ca...ants-in-the-Octagon-but-would-?urn=mma,243930
I agree. Shaq could still be a 18/8 player if hed just lose some weight. Hes still pretty mobile at his age and current weight, imagine if he was maybe 30lbs lighter?
