Another blatant case of Shaq-withdrawal syndrom. Hatred of Shaq. Ha ha
ha, we got him and we're FUCKING HAPPY ABOUT IT!

stabbed them in the back for taking more?

I can understand some people thinking that he's got work-ethic problems
and lack of desire, competitiveness, and all, and not liking him as a
basketball player, but what is there to hate about the person?
The guy is a good citizen, loves kids (and is loved by kids), and doesn't
seem to have a malicious bone in his body. Even when everyone was hacking
him he was saying that he's gonna go crazy by "Shaq Fuing" everyone.
Honestly, the guy is a big kid that loves life. I can't believe he's in
the same hate category as the likes of other sports figures (like the drug
dealers and all...)

If memory serves correctly, the behemoth does have an illegitimate
child. Furthermore, his pitiful criticism of Dennis Rodman (calling
him a "jealous gimmick") reveals his lack of sportsmanship. With
unmatched pound-for-pound strength, the Worm stifled Shaq's one
NBA-aided (Gee, that's not a charge) move in the conference finals,
and what is Shaq's response: a cheap shot from a prone position in
the paint and a personal tirade reminiscent of an upset third-grader
(You're right, he is a big kid). What's his beef with Rodman? Could
it be that Rodman is a better entertainer? Don't worry about MTV
calling ya Shaq; you have nothing remotely interesting or amusing to
say.

Anyone who knows who Dennis Rodman is, knows that he's full of gimmicks,
even though he is a rebound legend. But onto my point, I hope you are not
comparing Shaq to the drug dealers and such because he is going to have a
child out of wedlock. If you are, you need to wake up and set your
calendar for the nineties.
But back to the Rodman thing, although I respect him as a winner who does
what it takes to win, if you dig up some old clips of him in past playoffs,
you'd see that he is not the sportsman. Remember when he clothesline
Jordan, or how about when he tripped Jordan, cuz of frustration, or the
infamous forearm to Scottie Pippen. He seems to anger whoever he guards so
I don't think you can fault Shaq for losing his emotions. Countless others
have also.
