Painfully true. He's only good at bumping our big three to the stands now it seems.
This could be the end of Shaq as we know him. Pop used and abused the Hack-A-Shaq strategy and really exposed the big man. Either he really concentrates on his free throws or other teams will constantly use this ploy.
Its ugly yes, but the way Pop is showing it right now, its not only getting the ball back, but its really killing their offense.

yeah, shaq was completely humiliated. i loved it!
i can't think of any time where hack-a-shaq was used proactively. usually, coaches only turn to it when they're desperate.
Shaq runs his mouth...pop uses his head.
I agree with the le but for different reasons: Pop abused of Shaq with the PnR not with the Haq a Shaq. From now on every team that faces Shaq will PnR him to dead.
This was "I'mma bout to get swept" Shaq. This is what he does and why he's been swept so many times.
Hack a Shaq has been pure genius in this series.
A real boot to the neck move by Pop, I'm impressed.
Hasn't Shaq got a couple more years left on his contract? At 20 million per?
Nice move, Kerr. It seems you didn't learn a damn thing from your time with the Spurs organization.
I still think that this is a lethal (for the Suns) combination of an aging, slow center, who is not allowed to play to his strength, which is the halfcourt game and giving/receiving a pounding every night. Instead, he's forced to defend in the open court with no help.
(I'll bet David Robinson is eating this alive. He had to get pounded on by Snack every time they played.)
Once Shaq layed the flagrant on Timmy, you knew he was mentally done.
He's doing what all mentally weak people do, and that's pack it in when you're down.
End of Snaq, no WAY !!!
I though we were "gonna have to deal with the 325lb beast" LMAO at Mike DumbAntoni
Duncan is the better all time player and he is making sure everyone knows it in this series.
“You just don’t really want to get me upset. When I’m upset, I’m known to do certain things…”
“…like win championships.”

shaq talks a whole lot of , and nothing makes me happier than watching talkers eat crow after they can't deliver
bye bye shaq, tim is better, and he's also not an egomaniac
Shaq never shuts the up is what annoys me. Takes all the credit when they win and accepts no blame when they lose, that is why i can't stand him.
Shaq should have retired years ago but his ego wouldn't let him. It addictive being in the spotlight so many years.
So he decided to stay and play on. The least he could have done was tone down his bravado and display a little humility. He's just a s of what he once was and now the weight of expectations from the Suns fans and organization have come crashing down on him. And he has to realize that there's really nothing he can do about it.
Just go quietly Shaq, with some dignity.
He should retire in the off-season, he has no shot against Timmy anymore, he just gets owned.
Shaq is just sad now. I was talking to peeps at the GTG about watching him in Miami this year. He took an offensive rebound right in front of the hoop, went back up without any contact, and got rim checked. He can't even dunk without a runup start any more. If he wants to have any kind of finish to his career, he really needs to drop back below 300. He's always felt like he's had to be big to handle the punishment he gets dished, but that just isn't working any more.
Suns would love it if he retired. They're ed with him on the books for 2 more years.
Snaq is a circus freak now, has been for years.
This run was for all purposes the end of Shaq anyway. He's an old fat man :/
He has 2 years with phoenix though, doesn't he?
I could be wrong.
I'd rather he stay around in the desert. Keep taking up 20 million worth of cap space to be nothing more than a role player who can't be on the floor at crunch time.
