The Ultimate Revenge?

Shaquille O’Neal, perhaps the most hated man in the league to Laker fans, is potentially going to the team that Laker fans hate most. This is only days after the Lakers ski-masked Pau Gasol, becoming bona fide contenders in the process. Night is day, up is down, and in this case, good is great.

Sweet, isn’t it?

If there was ever a basketball God, he’d look deep into his heart, send Shaq to the desert, and grant us a third consecutive trip to the playoffs to face the Suns. The build up for a moment like this has been too long of a wait. I don’t feel like I have to say much right now - we all know we want it. What would be better than eliminating both the (former) Most Dominant Ever and the Suns at the same time? Killing two birds with one stone and breaking two curses would lift the spirits of every man who has ever bleed purple and trickled gold. While it’s not a guarantee that Shaq is a Sun or we even face them in the playoffs, I want you all to think of one thing while we wait for the outcome.

Shaq. Running and gunning.
