For the love of Christ, this shit again??
Is it jealousy??
Yes, Shaq was great, nobody debates that.
There are great players nowadays to!
Shit, he does it in this very clip!
Considering LeBron has played in multiple eras, I’m not sure what Shaq’s point is?
Is he aware that they played in the same era?
When Shaq was winning his rings in the early 2000s with the Lakers, was that era soft?
Should his dominance be discounted in any way?
Why is it so hard for a previous era player to simply acknowledge that?
His next claim that the product “is shit” is also ridiculous.
This is the entire point about the NBA media discourse!
That couldn’t be further from the truth!
We are watching one of the best regular seasons in recent memory.
Anytime you hear this claim from anyone it’s very obvious they are not watching.
Did the MIN/DEN 2OT thriller suck?
How about GS/LAL last night?
But again here we are.
And people still don’t understand the issue here?
Do we see this key in of hate/narrative in any other sport from the previous era’s greats?
So why are all these old heads so weird about this current era/product?
It’s truly bizarre.
But at the same time, that’s what the market dictated when it came to his value/contract.
You are worth what you have the leverage to negotiate.
Has he lived up to the expectations that come with his max deal?
No, but that happens all the time.
So, is it jealousy?
