kingfish Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 There are no rules for retired numbers. Some places, you'd better be a Hall of Famer. Other places honor the likes of Byron Beck. But this much is certain: If you want a franchise's ultimate honor, you'd better not burn your bridges. And one center with a fading game and an outsized personality torched the rest of his when this news clattered over the transaction wire last week: BOSTON CELTICS: Sign C Shaquille O'Neal. In other words, Shaq's chances of being honored by the Lakers, the franchise with which he won three championships and an MVP at the start of this century, have now officially plummeted to zero.

magicbalala245 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Plummeted to zero LMFAO. I hate Shaq as much as the next guy but let's be for real Shaq's jersey will be retired in Staples Center. He jersey will be probably be retired after Kobe but nonetheless will get retired in Staples Center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Universe Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 If he went from LA to Boston I could see it but he's not Laker Shaq or even close to that dominant anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLEkid Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I might be able to believe this if it were to come down to the Lakers and Celtics again, and Shaq had a hand in the Lakers defeat, but they will probably see each other three or four times in the season, the Lakers will appear as the dominant team, and Shaq will sign with a different team next season.
