All this talk about Lebron and where he may end up, what about Shaquille O'Neal? He only signed with Cleveland for one year and I'm not sure if the Cavs will re-sign him. Will he hang em up? Maybe another team picks him up.

He's a bench player at best. Said that way back. His role with a team is limited and slowed us down way to fucking much!

I hope so--it's tough watching former greats hanging on...he's too old,too big and much too slow---he definitely fits his nickname "diesel"

up until these last 3 or 4 years (i.e. right before the trade to Miami) he was my favorite player. Still probably is my ALL TIME favorite player. I think he should hang 'em up. UNLESS he can get back to 100% health-wise. It's been really cool having my favorite player on my favorite team for once. He's just been a shell of the guy I loved to watch growing up.

He should. He has had one of the greatest careers ever, but he is just a shadow of his former self.

Why should he when some hard up team like Cleveland will give him 20 million. How did that work out for ya Dan.

I don't think he will. I think he'll sign for the vet min to the frontrunners next year. Give him 15-20 mins a night. He scored 21pts his 2nd to last game. I don't think he'll say he's had enough. I think he thinks he's still productive (which he is).
