  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Shaq traded to Phoenix!

I thought the Lakers got over on Memphis when they got Gasol but Shaq for Shawn Marion & Marcus Banks!!?? Shaq is injured half the time, his numbers are no where near where they used to be, and he's probably close to the end of his career. And they trade Shawn Marion & Marcus Banks! Are you kidding me!?

Bad trade for Phoenix IMO.:timebomb:

You figure he would have a no trade clause, but he might have wanted to go :dunno:

The local sports radio is saying he was dying to come to PHX. They are also claiming the team chemistry had went in the crapper and this was a good fix.
Local papers are touting Shaq's body fat is 12% and he's in shape, knees and back are 100%. Sure I believe that...........about as much as I believe I can still do 100 push ups today if someone brings out the vaunted Triple dog dare.
