We know Cleveland has LOYAL fans, but classy ones.....

[Tymaster]

Clearly the people that fill the Q don't like the way "Big Z" has been treated since last spring/summer. This youtube clip actually made me tear up..

We'll see...............

I've had him on my fantasy team before. Awesome player, tougher than shit. Apparently his ankle is LOADED with pins from all of the injuries but they never stop him. I like the guy.

I fucking hate Shaq.

[JakeYonkel]

Just a bit melodramatic, don't you think?

It's like the guy died with the fuckin Sarah McLachlan song. Chill.

Yeah, it was bit much, but Z is a true hero in the city of Cleveland! He spends countless hours in Childrens Hospitals and feeding and clothing the homeless. A true role model, which is a true rarity in all of pro sports these days!

While I don't see any reason to hate Shaq, yeah, Z's feet and ankles have been very problematic. Yet Z still holds the record for games played as a Cav. And considering the franchise retired the jerseys of Price, Nance, Daugherty, Bingo Smith, and Austin Carr, they damned well better retire Z's. He's been more loyal to that town than Bernie Kosar or Jim Brown, and that is saying a lot!

Agreeance. I'm a die hard Cavs fan and I thought it was gay as fuck.

Once Lebronze goes to a cosmopolitan, cultured city and leaves redneck land behind.....

[Skate4RnR]

While I don't see any reason to hate Shaq

WHAT!? What the fuck? You don't think Shaq is a fuckhead? He's a dick! He won't practice free throws, he's said "I make 'em when I need to." He's fucking all "injured and hurt" while playing with D-Wade then is perfectly fine when he goes to the Phoenix Scums. He's a shit talking egomaniac who is good because of size, no finesse. Fuck I hate that scum fuck. Go crap on a cock and take Cleveland with ya you Cleveland queer!

Shaq's great. Classy guy and a real character, unlike most of the thugs employed by the NBA.

Speaking of classy fans, notice this dude (ME!) talked about faggot shit Shaq's done outside of the Lakers' era. Don't make me bring up the Orlando shit.

Jake, boy you done pissed me off boy! Fuck it, I hate it when you're right.

[ParaDime77]

Shaq is holding the team down, I bet if you asked Lebron off the record he'd even admit to it.

What?

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4956242

"The recovery timeline means O'Neal, who turns 38 on Saturday, may not be ready for the start of the playoffs April 17. The Cavaliers acquired him last summer with an eye toward the postseason, after Dwight Howard and Orlando eliminated them in the Eastern Conference finals."

Just do what Kobe does, tape that finger/thumb up, then throw up 38.

[Skate4RnR]

Just saw this...

http://gantdaily.com/2010/03/01/ilgausk ... n-to-cavs/

Looks like there's a good chance Z will be back. He's not eligible for 30 days BUT it's soon enough.

[Tymaster]

They looked fine tonight.

[Skate4RnR]

They're 7-1 without Shaq. It'll be OK.

[grishnak boss]

Great acquisition

[Punk]

And they're 40-13 with him, same winning % as the Lakers.

God that sucks.

[ParaDime77]

Easier for the Cavs to play up-tempo without the Big Dummy in the lineup. Also, you know when he returns to the team he'll be 20lbs heavier.

[Skate4RnR]

Shaq's great. Classy guy and a real character, unlike most of the thugs employed by the NBA.

Thugs like Mike Bibby, Lamar Odom, David Lee, Chris Paul, Chris Bosh, Ray Allen, D-Wade, Tim Duncan, Baron Davis, and Kevin Durant off of the top of my head? Do I need to go on or DO YOU GET THE FUCKING POINT!?

[grishnak boss]

SO FAR, STEVE KERR AND LUC LONGLEY HAVE 3 RINGS AND LEBRONZE?

NADA!!!

The typical white guy response that prefers bad basketball over the NBA is that it's full of thugs Skate. The NBA has never been better.

[JakeYonkel]

Never been better? Please.

Try like 1990-2000 when it was full of future Hall of Famers.

Somewhere along the way the shorts went down to the ankles, they started wearing those dumbass stockings on their arms, and doing their best NFL player impersonations pulling guns on eachother and shit.

It's a sport marketed towards ghetto kids and rich white kids that are wannabe ghetto kids.

[Skate4RnR]

I know what you're saying. My dad always says it's "gangster" now, not like the old days. It's the trend right now and it will pass. However "ghetto" basketball was in the 70's, the afros and knee high socks are replaced with longer shorts and corn rows.

That's why everyone in the 100 sections have ties on.

[JakeYonkel]

It's marketed towards ghetto kids. I didn't say they could afford to sit on the floor.
