Lost in all of this was the fact that, this was a blatant flop and Shaq should've been called out on it. http://www.blinkx.com/video/shaq-flop-vs-dwight-howard/kyszMHo1-xs2yPfeCRm6Qg

Shaq says that he didn't flop because he doesn't do it all the time? No one called him a flopper, they said he flopped. He did flop.

After the game I believe Shaq said he flopped in an effort to draw a charge.
They had the argument on the sideline during the game, they won the game. Why the heck did he need to take cheap shots during post game comments, telling a grown man "to play like a man". he should have just shut the heck up, but no, he had to rub salt into the wound.

because shaq likes to run his mouth about other bigs in the league and has been taking shots at howard for a long time

SVG was simply standing up for his guy and letting shaq know that he had to resort to the very thing he's always whined about - a big ol' flop

Shaq can sure can dish it out, but he can't take it.

BTW, did Bosh ever respond to his Ru Paul comment?

"I didn't laugh or anything, it wasn't funny," Bosh said yesterday at the Air Canada Centre. "I was kind of upset with that.
"He has been around the league for awhile and I expected a lot more professionalism out of him. I thought we were cool. Whatever."
Bosh said his comments were misconstrued by the time they reached the Suns' locker room.

"I won't get into a war of words," Bosh said. "He's not my friend, I don't really know him. I don't care about that stuff. It's done. Let's talk about basketball. He's one of the great big men. Let's leave it at that."

Maybe SVG is still a little bitter about the way Shaq was involved in getting him booted as the Heat coach?

Nooooooooo, Shaq would never toss a teamate or coach under the bus. What was I thinking? :D
