Shaq saying that Bynum >>>>> Howard is just a big way to show his dislike for Howard. No big man in today's game comes close to Dwight.

Shaq is a conceited assclown. But he is a top 10 player of all time who now gets paid to comment on stuff like this. He loves the attention and cameras and knows how to work them.

Everyone assumes that Shaq is making these comments out of some personal agenda against Dwight. Maybe it's how he actually feels and it's his objective view. There might be some truth to it. Bynum has several clear advantages over Dwight.

I don't see anything ludicrous abut this comment:

“Andrew Bynum is a true big man,” O’Neal said. “He can back you down, jump hook. Dwight Howard has one or two moves on the block. His one move is the running jump hook and the other move is a pick and roll and get inside. Andrew Bynum has the right jump hook and the left jump hook.”

Shaq takes every opportunity he gets to hate on Howard and comes away looking like a clown. Don't care about Howard's comments because Shaq is so ridiculous.

01-20-2012, 06:52 PM

Shaq had the Superman Logo first and claimed it hard when you saw him in pictures or tv. Dwight should of came up with something more original and im guarantee you Shaq would of never came at him this hard.

:rolleyes:

Shaq has claimed like 30 nicknames.

He blatantly hates on Howard whenever he talks about him as if he were a 10 year old who just had his candy taken away.

Shaq is being a punk ass baby.

We shouldn't be surprised though b/c that is how he has always acted towards anyone that takes away attention from him.

I certainly will not be surprised when he eventually alienates TNT over some bullshit he starts up with Barkley.

Hell, you can already see the tension starting to build with each show they do.

If Howard is so affected by Shaq's comments maybe he should use that as motivation and try improving his game to become a consistent dominant offensive force he should have already been.

Howard needs to focus on not being a bitch in the postseason as he always is, and to stop worrying about some retarded nickname that only an 8 year old would find humorous or impressive.

nope, you have it completely backwards.

Shaq is the one that has pissed and moaned about the name from the get go.

Dwight was asked a question about a guy who is always shit talking him and acknowledged he is tired of it.

You are the one blowing it up into him caring about it so much that it takes away from his focus.

Never mind that you saying Dwight plays like a little bitch in the playoffs is so pathetically far off from the truth it makes you hard to take seriously.

think shaq is a bit insecure because he never delivered a ring to orlando...so rather than his place/stature/legacy being set in stone...he feels like Howard has erased his memory over there...

also..howard is feasting on a much lower caliber of nba center than what young shaq had to deal with in Orlando...

Shaq is paid to analyze players and their games? "Bynum is a true big man"...that's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

Who was better has nothing to do with it. But just like in his NBA career, Shaquille O'Neal gets away with a lot.

Howard straight up told him to grow up and now he should blah blah blah blah blah. Good, tell him to grow up and that's right.

The funny thing is Shaq shouldn't be insecure over Howard because he is way better than him.

ILLsmak

01-20-2012, 09:31 PM

lol, well, I think if Shaq is upset, he's upset. He's BEEN upset and Dwight never really was like oh man sorry Shaq.

Or like, you know, "Shaq this is how the world works; I'd be pissed, too. But you had your time and now it's mine."

The real bitch move in this situation is by Howard. Has no one else mentioned that Howard never said shit like this when Shaq was in the league. The first season he's out he says some shit like "It's not like we can battle it out." It's like well you got many chances to battle it out and Shaq went toe-to-toe with you and you didn't say shit then.

If Dwight wins a championship, Shaq will give him his due, so I have no problem with Shaq calling Dwight out. The only reason it's annoying is because it's Shaq, who's somewhat of a drama queen. It's not like he's the only one saying Bynum is better (which is blasphemy BTW). It's not like he's lying when he said Dwight should average 28 and 15. He should. Look at today's centers.

and yes Shaq is better than Howard, but this is not about Howard vs Shaq, this is about Howard complaining about a comment Shaq made... and that comment was that he would pick Bynum ahead of him... IMHO he has every right to complain.

I was calling AB the next patrick Ewing back in the day, I used to think that one day Bynum would be better than Howard, but right now i can't see any possible argument going in Bynums favor if he is going to be compared against Howard.
