The Shaq Influence On Cleveland
The end of last month exhibited a monumental trade of Shaquille O’Neal from the Phoenix Suns to the Cleveland Cavaliers, with Shaq being paired up with arguably the best player of the NBA Lebron James. The two haven’t even played a single game together and it is already being called one of the greatest duos in history.
This will either end up as a phenomenal trade or a stupid one as Shaq is 37 years old and past the prime of his glory days in LA. The disappointing loss to Orlando in the Playoffs forced Cleveland to do something drastic for the Cavs to get back to the NBA Championship Finals. This could be the deal that gets them over the hump, and as well as Shaq played last year it could prove to be substantial at getting “The King” a ring and “The Diesel” his fifth.
shaq aint gonna do nothing cuz he couldnt do nothing wit steve nash so wat makes u think he can do something wit lebron.he two old to play n lebron need somebody like dat can shoot alot of threes like kobe or jodie meeks
