Shaq hating on those bois when he still has 3 fmvps over them. :facepalm

[dankok8]

Shaq is just looking at the current NBA thinking he would average like 35/15.

They don't even sniff to threatening Shaq's legacy, but he keeps hating regardless.

[L.Kizzle]

Shaq been hating on centers.

Kareem, Walton, Robinson, Deke, Mourning, Vlade, etc.

Yea it's just ridiculous when you think of it, darling.

[Xiao Yao You]

Shaq is just looking at the current NBA thinking he would average like 35/15.

and how many would he give up at the other end

[DoctorP]

Yea it's just ridiculous when you think of it, darling.

Lol at axes continued use of "darling"

[Gudo]

Can’t accept the fact that what he got paid for what he thought was worth a lot before is only worth peanuts now.

[Axe]

Lmao ./.

We all know who he had to face coming into the league so when he looks at todays modern era centers who are basically 3rd to 4th tier level bigs he just cant help himself but state the obvious

[LukeWalton]

Kareem. greatest Laker Center of all time.

The rules also make it a lot tougher on modern bigs to replicate that success. Unless you want to also agree that past guards/wing players were 3rd 4th tier level as well.

Would todays modern bigs be able to replicate that success if we revert back to the old rules? Especially the players mentioned in the op?

[DCL]

i don't think it's hate.

i think he's just being damn honest with how he really feels.

what is he supposed to say?? yeah, gobert is soooo impressive. he'd probably stop my ass.

no, shaq knows in his prime he would had destroyed gobert and that's not a lie.

[LukeWalton]

shaq being sensitive for 18 minutes

But those players don't need lashing from him. They just wanted to play.

Axe, honest question. Are you a 14 year old?

[Axe]

What kind of a dumb question is this? :rolleyes:

Awe. Watch for pedos axe!

Idk, there's just something about the things you say I can't quite explain. As if most of your comments are riding waves that others have created. Reactive. You just seem very young and without your own internal compass.

Well, you can put me on your ignore list instead of melting down about me. Go ahead and try, partner.

Shaq himself was a major disappointment. He really shouldn't talk.

But Shaq is so dumb and self absorbed that he takes pride in the popular notion that he COULD HAVE been the GOAT if he wasnt so lazy. He thinks that makes him special.

[houston]

the quote about deandre jordan lol

Isn't it obvious?

[Axe]

Oh great, you too as well? Good lord. :oldlol:

[Lebowski]

Where is the hate? Title could be, also very humorous: "Shaq being Captain Obvious"

[GOBB]

Can’t accept the fact that what he got paid for what he thought was worth a lot before is only worth peanuts now.

Huh? Shaq made money and invested/saved well. He’s far from concerned about what money they got vs what he has. Because he’s still getting bread. Peanuts? Ha.

Shaq is just being Shaq which is a bully to big men.

Shaq is a certified top 10 player of all time. Disappointment? Wouldn’t say that.

He could be humble, and not brag about obvious things. It's pretty apparent he's a petulant child at heart. Most big guys aren't insecure like that. Chuck is so much more mature and wise.

[FKAri]

No. They wouldn't. Likewise 1/3rd of all starting C's in the NBA in say 2000 wouldn't be on a roster today. Because both are built for their time.

The world would be a boring place is everyone was humble. What makes Shaq Shaq is him not being humble. Barkley is more mature? He does the same stuff. You forget what he said about Deandre Jordan locking himself in the gym and still struggling to score?

[Reggie43]

No. They wouldn't. Likewise 1/3rd of all starting C's in the NBA in say 2000 wouldn't be on a roster today. Because both are built for their time.

Yep these modern centers especially those mentioned in the op are built for their time and would look much much worse with the old rules.

[west_tip]

Crapping all over centers has always been his schtick.

Dude is the reason I don't watch the TNT halftime show, he's slow, boring, makes retarded points and has a massive ego but is sensitive as an insecure teenage girl.

Charles is way more intelligent and insightful and Kenny makes a good straight man but Shaq ruined the chemistry.

He wasn't a major disappointment lol.

Are you on crack?

Chuck is like Shaq.

Both of them aren't that mature or wise.

[brownmamba00]

Personally I love it when he shits on other centers. Some of those guys deserve it too.
