When Bonis was in Shaq had terrible numbers. When they put power forward Davis in Shaq rang them up.....

There is no doubt Shaq has the schit but when you get into his head Or like Sabonis does with the outside shooting make Shaq actually work you watch his numbers deteriorate faster than the Blazers did.

There are several that really can get to Shaq mentally and thus negate his advantage. Instance we just traded one (forget his name) to Miami who has the ability.

Duncan.. Divace(sp).. There is some up and coming European players. I’m not too familiar with the east but I’m sure there has to be one or two that match up better on paper. Carter almost has Shaqs numbers. If he were in contention the MVP talk would be surrounding him. IMO


Augmon and Harvey unsettle Shaq to the point he is no longer an issue. Sure two players to one but notice the fouls on those two when they did exactly that. Skills should make a player go from good to great. Not the refs giving them the calls. There used to be a thing called ‘make up calls’. With LA that doesn’t seem to be the case. All mo
