AI, Starburry, Tmac, Shaq
Shaquille "Shaq / Diesel / Big Aristotle / Big Cactus / Big Witness / Superman / Big Agave / Big Cactus / Big Shaqtus / Big Galactus / Wilt Chamberneezy / Big Baryshnikov / Real Deal / Dr. Shaq / Shaqovic" O'Neal may have priced himself out of the NBA. He remains unsigned in search of a $8 million salary and two-year deal.
Shaq is worth about what Mutumbo made at his age. 2 Million near Vets min.
He needs to retire already, starting to feel sorry for the guy.
Might be just what he needs to tame that world famous ego. Time and wear & tear catch up to everyone. He needs to realize his limitations. Maybe this way he actually can win another le, with the proper mindset going in.
What difference it makes he has an estimated net worth of $250 million
That's exactly why he shouldn't care.
This is exactly why he does.
I wonder how much of his NBA $200M+ he's already burned through?
Will he be one of the 60% of NBA players who are broke 5 years after retirement?
Remember he's going through a very messy divorce. He probably needs the cash. He's also got about 5-6 kids.
The way he burns through $$$ and with his excess spending, I wouldn't be at all surprised.
He's already unemployed numnuts....Mark my word though...MARK MY ING WORDS...Shaq even if he gets a job this year is about to go bat crazy either this year or the next b-cuz all his life he's been the center of attention or a big part of it...he got a pass from the media b-cuz of his fake humbleness...fake humor...and most importantly b-cuz he was a card carrying member of the Kobe hate club....no one ever taught him how to handle being irrelevant...it's something he's never experienced...and he's about to fall hard...it's all been a facade...poor guy... lol
If the C's pick him up at 2 mil a year, I'm cool with that. Definitely not 8. We're bloated as is.
shaq is a cancer he messed up what i had going on for the suns he came up and ruined everything with his bad at ude and influence
nah I got a feeling he'll be on tnt long after retirement
sup sheehan?

There is reports in Greece that he is already talking with Olympiacos.
aww egomaniac gonna have some narcissistic rage soon
Sure there is.
Every FA is talking with Olympiacos and Panathinaikos - no surprise here.
I bet taxes and his accountant took half... So that leaves about 100M. Then his wife got half, so 50M. His wife and kids will probably get at least a house that he paid cash for, so 50 - 10M, or 40M. Then he spent probably 5M on cars and boats and crap like that custom big rig (and insurance for it all), so 30M. Then family begging for "a couple mill" sine they prolly just saw the headline pretax contract number and thought he got all that so 20M.
So over his 14 year or so career I hope he was fiscally responsible bc he really only had about 20M, or 10% of that headline # to live on.
I heard this yesterday. Olympiacos and agent of Shaq are in contact.
Bring him to Detroit! All he has to do is be better than Kwame Brown! Monroe could learn from him!
