Shaq compares himself to Jerry West

"That's because we've got five unselfish guys, guys moving the ball, guys
are coming together," center Shaquille O'Neal said. "I've been on a lot of
teams. I think this is one of the best teams I've been on, one of the
closest teams I've been on. And it's going to be my job everybody stays
loose and everybody stays close."

O'Neal, however, has played limited minutes (26.7 per game) because of a
strained left hamstring and foul problems. That's when the offense has
relied on Wade, and he's been nothing short of great.

O'Neal, of course, knew that would be the case.

"I'm like a hip-hop Jerry West," O'Neal said, invoking the name of the Hall
of Fame guard and former Los Angeles Lakers and current Memphis Grizzlies
general manager.

"I can look at people and tell if they've got it or not, and when I looked
at (Wade) on TV, I could tell he had it."

Wade has been awesome so far.

I love this guy. And to think, most of you used to defend this kind
of arrogant idiocy.

Most Lakers' fans laughed at this type of thing from Shaq, which is all that
should be done now also.

Surprised you think Wade sucks. I think the kid has a future, and a
present for that matter.

I'm surprized that you think spotting talent in Wade makes someone in
the same league as Jerry West.

Hey look, I dropped my pen and it fell down. I guess that makes me
like a modern day Isaac Newton.

im guessing republikkkonism is just a mind set... because you dissed shaq,
you automatically think that wade sux (well you dont really think that, thats
just what collard wants people to believe)...

very interesting how EVERYTHING is spun when youre a republikkkon...

hey, but at least you did him the same way with the spotting talent remark...
i wouldve just called him out on being a disenginuous asshole...
