Shaq present and dressed for shootaround



Want to hear the Shaq news cycle in a nutshell? With one minute of each other, two respected reporters had the following conflicting tweets:

Gary Washburn: “Shaq was getting stretched when we were allowed into shootaround and then walked into locker room. No limp.”

Chris Forsberg: “Shaq still with a very noticeable limp as he left court. Was using strength coach Bryan Doo to do push-ups before leaving.”

One second Shaq’s out for the season, the next he’s present at shootaround. Classic. Though Doc Rivers said Shaq is still doubtful for Game 4 (which I assume means he’s still out for tonight), he reportedly moved better today than he had been moving. Whatever that means.

In other news, Jermaine O’Neal will continue to play with a brace on his wrist. Perhaps he should also play while wrapped inside bubble wrap and packaging peanuts.

    Listen, the only reason we are having to listen to the Shaq crap day after day is that Ainge and Doc want us to not think about Perkins. It’s smoke and mirrors, PR manipulation. Good journalists shouldn’t fall for it. Whatever we get from these two guys is fantastic. No one has any reason to be disappointed in them. They did what they were brought here to do.
