amare is complaing about not enough touches!

[ducks]

The Suns also have wanted to address chemistry problems in their locker room. Marion long has felt he doesn't get the respect he deserves – or at least not on par with that of Nash and Stoudemire – and asked to be traded after Kerr turned down his request for a three-year, $60 million extension shortly before the season. Stoudemire also complained last month about not getting enough shots. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=Aod02HnxlicKrqLif3qwhAO8vLYF?slug=jy-shaqdeal020508&prov=yhoo&type=lgns

Its a good thing that Phoenix is bringing in someone like Shaq who doesn't care about his touches.

Amare thread!

"Shaq who doesn't care about his touches."

I don't think Shaq cares much about basketball anymore. Just banking that $20M/year 'til the end of the contract.

:lol

I remember prior to the start of the season the talk was that Shaq was SUPER ready and SUPER motivated, because of his wife's affair giving him all that motivation to workout in the offseason and get better...............LMAO No different from the last 3 years, he's on the bench: Injured, Fat, and being unproductive.

Not so fast!

Shaq was heard bitching to the coaching staff earlier this season about the players not getting the ball down to him in the post. I remember reading an article where he claimed something along the lines of "as long as I'm shooting close to 60% from the field, I need to get "x" amount of touches per game".

Shaq complains about it every year. Recently he complained about it one or two months back.

[Oh, Gee!!]

Poor shaq--getting bounced from two teams just to please two young superstars. He must feel very old and irrelevant today.

I'm guessing that the $231 million he's earned playing basketball provides some nice, soothing relief to a bruised ego.
