However Shaq on TNT makes Scott look like an Emmy candidate. Yes, Shaq is a big name...but he brings NOTHING to the set. Absolutely nothing. He's sour grapes 24/7 and his insight is foolish. Did any of yall hear his @%%+ last night in talking about Dwight Howard? He was going back and forth w/ Charles about who was better between him and Bynum. Charles kept saying how Dwight was the better overall player and Shaq said he doesn't count defense/rebounding in the equation. After that, he was asking if he (shaq) was better than David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, etc etc. I couldn't figure out his angle It's like this every damn week with him on set. He's hard to understand because of his mumbling and really sucks in comparison to someone like Chris Webber. Personally, I don't find him funny or insightful and I hope TNT eventually goes their separate ways from him. /rant

I think Dennis Scott has improved drastically since he first started, I can actually listen to him without laughing now.

I literally have to turn the volume up to hear what he's saying, and he always brings his personal biases into his analysis about certain players and teams. GO GREEN! GO WHITE!

Yea you could see something like this coming into fruition. I was never hyped up to see Shaq coming to TV. I'd rather listen to a retired coach any day or at least from a PG lol.

Wish they would get rid of snaq but that won't happen. It's ok watching him when he's on nba tv on I think Full Court. One of the best and funniest sports shows i've ever seen. Cassie can sit on the face. No question.

Hopefully for TNT's sake they can mold him as the years go on. Or put him in a different position. Ah Lucky For Me I'm Not The Only One Lucky For Me I'm Not The Only One

And he's so dumb, on Open Court, he said if he was the commissioner he would put in a penalty box like hockey for people who wanna fight and act tough, go inside the penalty box and fight, then Kenny said you go in there AFTER the fight, that's why it's called penalty box, Shaq was like "Oh, I don't watch hockey." He also had moments on Inside where he said some dumb !@$.

Posts: 38553 01/27/12 11:44 AM Administrator	Shaq: Ricky Rubio, best player to come out of Italy. Shaq: I shot 16 for 39… that's right, above 50%. Look it up. Three degrees, baybeeeeeeee! And like I said last night in the NBA thread: Straight up, Shaq is a B. When you make these little petty "You could have…" statements, you're a B. Y'all hear him talking about Kenny Smith calling Dwight Howard 'Superman' a few years ago when D12 did his Superman dunk? "You could have said it in a lower voice tone."

Shaq was making absolutely no sense saying Bynum was better cause he had a few more post moves than DH12 They need to get rid of him asap

Charles Barkley almost jumped outta his seat when Shaq said he doesn't count rebounding/defense when comparing Dwight to Bynum. This is why he gave the edge to Bynum. I mean, there is NO reason for Shaq to go in on D12 like this. What the $%$# is this guy's problem? Kept asking questions that he knew the answer to...who's better me or David Robinson...who's better me or Patrick Ewing. So @#+#%%% stupid.
