I just heard one of Shaquille O'Neal's comments from last night after the game on the 10 o'clock news. I guess he was asked about Luke Walton's performance last night. His response went something like this...

"Great guy. Rookie. It's amazing how he can get me the ball and some of the guys and I've been playing with five or six years still can't."

LOL

Here's the same quote, from slamonline.com:

Shaq, who scored 29 points, said afterward that he loved Walton's game, especially the part where he found Shaq in the paint time and time again. "It amazes me how he can give me the ball and guys that I have been playing with four, five, six years can't give me the ball." While reporters laughed, Shaq kept a straight face and shrugged his shoulders.

I was thinking the same thing when I watched the game.... I think if Kidd and another unselfish player (like Walton) were on that team who knew how to get Shaq the ball, Shaq would be almost unstoppable...

of course it makes it much easier to double-team Shaquille O'Neal when you can leave the guy shooting 39% from the field (even when half of his field goals come from fast-break layups).
