Shaq Still Smoking Strong Stuff

Would somebody please tell me what the hell former NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neal is smoking these days?

If you ask me, Shaq has totally lost his mind. First he’s ripping on Kobe Bryant in his new tell-all book, “Shaq Uncut” then he takes a shot at former head coach Pat Riley and Lakers’ legendary Hall of Fame center Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Now, the ‘Big Idiot’ is proclaiming that Kobe Bryant is “probably the greatest Laker of all time.”

The four-time NBA title winner appeared on KTLA’s morning show to promote his book when he uttered his most recent foolish comments.

“Based on what he’s done, he’s probably the greatest Laker of all time,’” O’Neal said on Monday . “If he gets another championship, he’ll tie with Kareem. That will put him up there.”

“It’s a different kind of great,” O’Neal said of Bryant when comparing the gifted shooting guard to himself. “He had the skills to be an all-around player. I’m just a big man so I just do big-man stuff. I’m just in the big-man category.”

Maybe it’s me, but I’m wondering if O’Neal has ever heard of another five-time NBA title-winner by the name of Magic Johnson – or maybe he’s never heard of Jerry West the player that the NBA logo is made from.

All I’m going to say is that while I’m looking forward to the upcoming NBA season, I’m definitely looking forward to seeing or hearing O’Neal on TNT television – and I can just imagine the banter between Shaq and the outspoken Charles Barkley,
