Got called for an offensive foul and I guess kept talking on the way back to the bench, at least I'm assuming because the camera wasn't on him.

No idea why they just brought Shaq back in, he's been absolute fucking garbage tonight. Rockets go back up 12 with 6 minutes left.

Man whenever Shaq touches someone they call a foul. They can't seem to get over the hump.

Alright I'll say it. I'm sick of watching Shaq. It's like watching last year's team as if Ben Wallace had to take at least 10 shots a game. I mean, the guys shooting 25% tonight. Not exactly spectacular numbers from a center.

i still say Z should start. It's pretty easy to tell if he will play well or not. If he starts solid, play him most of the center minutes, if not use shaq.

Shaq should only be used in situational roles at this point.

Can't win games when your backcourt plays that badly. Our guards (didn't matter who it was) were terrible on both ends of the court.

The officiating was pathetic. About as inconsistent as they could have possibly been.

Give the Rockets credit, every time we tried to make a run they answered.

Ariza and Brooks were all star like in this one and it was great to read that the Rockets were able to ride those two to a very nice win.

Shaq and Mo did not want to be there tonight. Absolutely horrible effort. Oh yeah...the officials stunk as well. Games like these make me believe that the NBA is still fixed.

Shaq is over the hill...slow as can be...and is a detriment to this team. He can't guard and he can't finish anymore.

Maybe his old lady taking half his shit has something to do with it.

Cavs are headed for a #4 seed....and I doubt that that will be enough to get it done.

Shaq is done.

In the olden days, if the other team had trotted out 6'6" Chuck Hayes and a guy named "Luis" ... Shaq's eyes would've narrowed and he would've dropped a 45-28 on them, talked some shit, and clogged six of their toilets on the way out of the arena for good measure.

His game has just always relied on athleticism...and it's just not there anymore. He doesn't have the raw skills to fall back on now because he never took the game that seriously because of all his natural ability.

The good news, Cavs fans, is that Shaq can be turned to pretty much anybody on the trade block come February.

I'd start the Chris Bosh watch now.
