All aboard! The Shaq bandwagon departs this station in roughly 8-10 hours....

[Arizona's Finest]

Speaking of, I cant wait for the verbal barbs coming in a few weeks. Now with PJ's Shaqy Goodness!

Thats my favorite part of this trade. The LA/PHX rivalry just got ramped up times 100. David Stern must be frothing at the mouth.

Any preliminary guesses on who next years XMAS day game will be?

 

[Heucrazy]

Yay, Shaq.

And when the Lakers clip the Suns in the playoffs, it will officially, officially be on!

 

[Gaddabout]

Man, I can't believe how much teams hack Shaq and get away with it. It's a conspiracy.

Just getting warmed up.

We will see what the Big Saguaro has to say about that

I can't wait to see Shaq play with a real point guard and Nash play with a real center. I also can't wait to see Amare finally play his natural position. With Shaq and Amare, it will be "pick your poison" time. Not to mention all the wide open three's that will result from double-teaming in the low post. Nash, Barbosa and Bell will have a field day. I still can't believe this is happening- Marion will be gone- no more cringing every time he shoots a three.

I'm on the bandwagon. Not because I think it's an amazing trade but if it does go down then I don't want to spend the rest of the season moaning about it.

Lets just hope this works out for the best. STAT at PF will be nice to watch, the guy should dominate even more. You never know, Shaq could even stay healthy for most of the playoffs.

Exactly my sentiments. When it comes to entertainment, it just got ramped up a notch or two...

 

[JCSunsfan]

We might lose on this one, we might win.

But we knew we couldn't win if we didn't play.

 

[mjb21aztd]

I am in lead us to the promise land Shaq

 

[nashman]

I love the Suns, so while this trade scares the crap out of me, I am ALL IN!! Hopefully this works out for us and we can dominate some teams in the playoffs!

 

[SirStefan32]

I can't wait to see Nash/Amare/Shaq. WOW

 

[OldDirtMcGirt]

I'm all aboard. If we're going to go down, we might as well go down in flames, instead of almost getting to the top of the mountain. If this doesn't work, it's going to fail miserably, and if it does work, it ends at the Larry O'Brien. 100% Kool Aid from here on out.

 

[DeAnna]

Count me NOT on board.

Basically, they gave away their best athlete, best rebounder, best defender, and their best all-around player who is one of the most versatile players in the NBA, away for a washed up Shaq.

I am officially in mourning.

 

[Chaplin]

Why do people keep saying that Marion was our best defender? He wasn't! He was probably the 2nd best defender, but certainly not the 1st. He does a lot of little things really well.

But guess what? That hasn't won us a title, has it?

Here- drink.

 

[msdundee]

Here- drink.

You might have that backwards. There's a whole different crowd chugging KoolAid now and they're towing the bar behind the bandwagon.

 

[French Fries]

did i make it in time?

yes, bandwagon fan here. i'm a shaq fan so i'll try to dodge bullets, ciao!

 

[rgangel27]

permission to join

How you guys doing? Just wanted to ask permision to join the Suns message board. Yes Im a Shaq fan..been a fan since since his LSU days.

Im just happy Shaq found another home where he is wanted and where he could contribute.

 

[sLapzsHaQ]

I'm with you French Fries.. Let's be on these boards..
Shaq would be back!

But it's weird that this logoff everytime it's been idle, for only 5 or so minutes I guess. That's just a pain in the rear..

 

[rgangel27]

Need some of that kool-aid

 

[sLapzsHaQ]

Need some of that kool-aid

I really don't understand that, what does that mean? Needing some of that kool-aid? Seriously.

 

[Feeble Mcjackson]

first shot of shaq on tv? him eating...yea, he will be in shape. worst trade in suns history.

 

[Feeble Mcjackson]

<---- Me to the departing bandwagon

Shaq led Suns ---->

ha! this is exactly on point. great post
