Shaq to Robin Lopez: "Put somebody on their (expletive) back."

shaq also threw teh ball at przybilla on the floor after przybilla flopped. shaq is the man. here's what shaq said about the incident.
'He said I threw the ball at him and I said, yeah. That's what I did. So what? Do something about it. I'm not much of a talker.' When asked if he could receive a fine for admitting he 'threw the ball' at Przybilla, Shaq quickly corrected himself. 'I didn't throw it. I dropped it. Hey, it doesn't matter to me - whatever they do. It's been done before. You move on. I just dropped it. He was in the way. If he wouldn't have flopped and been on the floor, he wouldn't have been down there.'

 

Coleman dunked on shaq, but for the most part, shaq get his money's worth on fouls. He fouls the guy hard and sure he jnows it. Guys that flopp, he makes sure to fall or step on them.

 

Shaq steps out of the way as to not get dunked on. I'd rather see a center get dunked on while contesting the shot than running away from the play.

 

Im starting to live shaq more and more.

 

No one named Robin will intimidate anyone.

 

Yao doesn't need to play dirty to be his best. In just the last few weeks, count how many times he's hurt opposing players by just holding his ground. One of the Clippers was carried off the court last Friday because he ran into Yao just standing in the lane...Ben Wallace fractured something in his leg fighting Yao for a rebound....this is just within the last handful of games and both times Yao didn't even notice anything happened. Yao is known as a physical force of nature and people know it. He will always be challenged by people trying to dunk on him because it's a badge of honor...just like it was to dunk on Deke, Alonzo Mourning, Hakeem, etc.

 

There is a difference between playing dirty and letting others know whats going to be coming for them in the paint.

 

Well that was a terrible move. You said it yourself. Marion was by far their best defender. You trade your best defender, rebounder, and shot blocker for an over the hill Center who fouls and can't defend the pick and roll to save his life. It may have been intended to improve their defense, but we all know how it turned out.

 

Listen to Shaq, he has the championships to prove it. Hard fouls to make the opponents think twice before challenging and flopping against you is what you want your centers to do. When you play with someone like Nash, washed up Grant Hill, No D Jason Richardson, chucker Matt Barnes, of course at an age of 37 Shaq can't keep up but his numbers are still impressive.

 

damn, i hate agreeing with shaq... : /
