Shaq is useless, old and washed up, so is Ben wallace. Both were once pretty dominant players.

lol so true. funny thing is, throughout his career, every time he's gone to the finals, he's had an allstar guard by his side....Penny, Kobe, Wade, and now James.

LOL this was bound to happen, i guess it's an upgrade ???
Personally i think the deal of the day was Jamal Crawford being sent to Atlanta for relativly nothing, atlanta has 2 guys in johnson and crawford now who can light it up.

Crawford is talented, but usually hurts his team more than he helps...and this is coming from a huge hawks fan.

Shaq to the cavs was a very good move. He might not be as quick as he used to be but once he gets the ball down low hes still very dominant. He still averaged 18 and 8 last year on 60% shooting. He's also a good defender downlow simply because hes so big. He's clearly out of his prime, but could definitely help the cavs win a title.

lol i found about the trade from this thread!
shaq = useless so they traded away 2 players money and a draft pick for nothing!
haha
LAKERS 09-10 Champs ! ;D

Noone ever thought Shaq n Wade would win a championship...but they DID...just you guys watch, this is gonna be an amazing duo!!! Another superstar to the Cavs roster can only motivate the rest of the team to step up their game!!!! IM OPTIMISTIC!!!! :)

The Cavs were real close to winning a championship as it is. They mainly needed a leader, a veteran player who's been there done that. That's exactly what they were looking for and got in this trade. They don't need that dominant Shaq from 5-6 years ago. They will be just fine if he can put up 15,8, but more importantly be a strong presence in the locker room.

Also, with his jolly personality, I feel like he's gonna fit in real well with that team. With this trade, I see Cavs gettin over the bump and winning it all next year. Overall, good trade for Cavs, and not half bad for the Suns either.

i am gonna love watching the east run pick and roll all day long on the cavs. if you guys think orlando ate them up now wait till next year when shaq decides he wont defend the pick and roll and lewis and whoever get open shots left and right.

OHHHHHH...yess...we needed this...shaq will never be what he was...but his presence is unmistakable in the paint...Z has great hands and is a good shooter but is not dominant, and generally doesn't really throw his body around...with Shaq in there...just his presence...will help Lebron..

I smell a championship....

Phoenix slowed down its run n' gun offense when shaq was on the floor. I dont think the cavs are really a half-court team, i would imagine that they like to run more than set plays. The reason why i say that is that their two main "designed" plays are A) give it to lebron let him draw in the D on the drive and kick it out and pray for a bucket, and B) give it to lebron
Having shaq on the floor will keep Z fresh and vice versa, but it'll be interesting to see what their offensive sets will be like. Also, i dont see how this is a solution for the fact that their guards got demolished on the block by Lewis & Turk

Shaq had one of his best seasons this last year....I don't think he's washed up at all...Lebron and Shaq will make a good duo but I'm going to have to say kobe and shaq made the best pair. Lebron is really strong at freethrows and on point with all his shit, but I think he needs someone whos faster/more maneuverable then Shaq...then again anything is better then Wallace!!

The problem wasnt the guards, the problem was definitely Howard (especially on game 6). Z got dominated in every way that series. And yes, Lewis and Turkoglu played well, but itll be alot harder to get down to the block with Shaq standing there.

OK. Lebron's jump shot is really erratic, he lives of being able to drive into the paint to make passes and to score. HOW THE HECK IS HE GONNA DO THAT WITH SHAQ THERE NOW!?! Nash had this problem this year too, to a lesser extent and it showed in his stats.
