Re: How do you feel about Shaq not making it to the finals?

Because the Lakers didn't make the playoffs, I can't root for them anymore? Okay dad. I'll quit rootin for them.

I never said you couldnt. Its sad, but hey, you can do whatever you want.

and please dont insult me by calling me your father..

He was a game away from the Finals. If it wasn't for Damon Jones futzin' around with the ball.....


Meanwhile.....

Well, I'm a Laker fan and I'm happy as hell also. I dont give a damn how far he made it in the playoffs. He didnt bring home a ring and thats hwhat he's been saying he would do since his first Heat press conference.

I wasnt even upset about the trade or the bad things he said about the Lakers organization. What pissed me off was after 3 yrs of coming into the season fat and out of shape, he loses 30 + pounds this year and comes in in the best shape of his life. Bottomline, I'm estatic that he didnt get a ring and I hope he never gets one again.

Everybody points ast Kobe as the bad guy and I agree he's done some f'd up things but Shaq has done his share too. I cant wait to see when he stats whining when the "real owner" wont pay him 90 mil either.

And it baffles me how no one ever points to is often childish behavior.

Oh alright then. I guess you can blame D. Jones now. After you finish blamin him, blame D. Wade for his zero-4th quarter points due to his ribs. Then you can blame the Diesel for his thigh injury.

Meanwhile...

How are you going to talk about any team when the lakers didn't even get close to the playoffs?

Because Shaq is more likeable and thats a bunch of BS. If Kobe would have come into camp fat the previous three seasons, demanded a large extension before his contract was up and badmouth the owner and other teammates, they would have crucified that.

are you kidding? People had issue with Shaq and his mouth for years, and all Lakers fans would say is, that's just Shaq, oh he's just being Shaq...

now that the tables turned....well

So because of that he should get a pass. Also I don't think the problem is his mouth its his attitude towards basketball.

Is that Robert Horry in your avatar? Wow. I never thought I would see the day.

And you are right about the Shaq thing. I for one used to laught at whatever Shaq had to say, still do most of the time, just stings a little when it's about the Lakers. But he's still has his share of classic lines this year. My personal favorite was when he was talking about the new Magic coach working for him when he buys the team in three years.

And this thread is ridiciculous. The Heat went farther this year than 27 other teams, and it's supposed to be a dissapointment?

I've never given Shaq a pass. I've taken issue with him and Kobe's attitude for such a long time. Its the reason they turned me off as fans.

Again, it was Lakers fans giving Shaq the pass...as I said, now that the table has turned, its all of a sudden not "just Shaq"

I'm not sure, but I keep thinking that you were the one who didn't like every single Laker. But now that I think about it, it could have been Foxy (where has he been?). Were you the one that said "Derek Fisher is the worst starting point guard in the league"?

It probably wasn't you, but hey, you are the only original "Laker hating" veteran who still manages to take onslaught after onslaught on OS. From madskillz to jordan to that hardware guy with the green avatar.

Lakers suck. So? They didn't make the playoffs. So?

Some of yall are ignorant and are instigators. Read the title of this thread. All I asked was your simple opinion about how you feel about Shaq not making it to the finals.

Yet, some of yall bring in the hate and things that absolutely have nothing to do with the way you feel about Shaq not making it to the finals.

Stop trolling.

aholbert32, lock this thread if you like. All I wanted was to see how people felt bout Shaq not making it to the finals. Instead, its turn into a flaming war.

Wasnt me. I used to be a Lakers fans remember? Foxy doesnt come here anymore. I dont know what happened to him. He got into computer school and not long after he didnt come around much.

I dont care about what the guys here who dont know me say. I just like talking basketball. Not that silly stuff. My thing is, if you disagree, put some weight behind your post and show me, dont post personal attacks because you cant really answer a post.

Notice a trend with the guys you named? Where are they? and why?
