    Is he insane? No one in Jersey is a Nets fan- they're all Knick fans- how does he expect them to root for the Hornets or Bobcats- someone with even less success than the Nets. Nets were practically giving away tickets to a Hornets game on a Saturday and barely sold any.

    If the NBA allows this, they've lost their mind. Part of me thinks Shaq might just be doing this for good PR in his hometown, but it wouldn't surprise me if he actually goes through with this.

    Something tells me Shaq won't have the post-basketball success in business that Magic has had.
