Shaq could be a Cavalier soon

That would be pretty sick IMO especially with no big guys in the East except for Mr. Howard. Whats funny and I could be wrong but I thought the Cavs could of done this trade during the year for Peanuts but Lebron wanted to do it without Shaq, which back fired having no big boy for Howard but again I could be wrong.

Labron should just come to the Magic. Along with D-Wade. the Magic would be unstoppable

Shaq is old and not the same but how would it be a downgrade? He is still better than most centers in the East

I would take 16 and 10 all day if I were the Cavs and just his presence in the middle will open up so much more and with LB along with Williams and a couple shooters. I say Game Over IMO.

Umm. Check Haywoods number two years ago. He had posted career numbers.

He was injured all of last year.

So, yes I feel going into 2009-2010 I would rather have a guy in his prime in Haywood, then a guy like Shaq who is way past his prime

Shaq and leadership= A BIG LMAO

Shaq didnt earn his last ring. Stern and his crooked refs handed the Heat their rings over on a silver platter

And the Cavs would be smart to leave Shaq alone. LeBron has a major ego and he cant stand to share the spotlight with the Diesel

Shaq did his prime with Orlando and the Lakers. Not worth it for anyone to get him now. He should retire if he is ready to leave the suns
