Donny Marshall was saying tonight in the post game that we NEED the ONeals.

honestly, this frustrates me to no end. Just nights ago they were talking about how we really don't need these guys and that our bigs were adequate.

why has it taken so long for people to realize something that was obvious at the time of the Perk trade?

The only thing IMO that we need to be talking about is EXACTLY when Shaq is coming back because this is getting ridiculous.

We are wasting games and the Big 4 are getting way too fatigued for this late in the season because our interior play is non-existent. you can tell KG wearing down because he is trying to do it all himself. BBD is doing some good work, but he needs to be solidifying  the bench.

Shaq better get back on the court because waiting for the playoffs is too late. Our starters will be toast by then.

I can't believe people are really depending on Shaq and JO to get us to the NBA Championship...How many games have these two played combined this season!?

We were fine the way we were prior to Perk getting traded. Perk starting and Shaq possibly coming off the bench or vice versa.

If JO does ANYTHING for us in the playoffs I swear Ill eat my C's jersey.

well I totally agree that the trade was completely unnecessary, but that's beside the point now.

we need players who naturally exist in the paint and are comfortable there.

this spreading the floor with your bigs is for the birds. we need guys that are willing and able to do dirty work IN the paint.

just look what Powe did tonight and he's what 6'7"?

I've got news for everybody. If you're depending on Jermaine O'Neal to save this team, get ready for disappointment. Dude is worse than Krstic and Murphy

We wouldn't have Green without the trade and Pierce would barely be able to walk. And Erden may also be in a shoulder cast or something because it finally gave way for him.

Trade wasn't necessary. Please. Get Shaq back in here, have us still suck, then talk to me.

Other than giving pierce a rest, tell me all the other great things green has done in 15 games.

at least he can protect the rim.

but i agree if he's our starting center.

we need Shaq as our starting center and JO as our back up.

Rondo
RAy
PP
KG
Shaq

DWest
Green
BBD
JO

This is what we need to get our systems functioning like they need to...

could have made the trade to get rid of daniels, and the other 2 stiffs...opened up 3 roster spots and signed 2 wings to back up pierce and arroyo..i like the trade but to much to overcome integrating the new pieces

  Giving Pierce a rest is pretty important unless you were hoping to see Wafer cover LeBron for 5-10 minutes a game in the playoffs.

You are grinding vs the Memphis Grizzlies and you don't think the big four deserve better than this? Why does Doc mention both O'neals before the game, because both Krstic and Baby will give him heart attacks if they don't come back. You say we were fine, then you mean Semih Erden's fine play. Folks, Shaq and Jermaine could actually walk through that door, they might be old and tender but I will take them over both these....I won't even call them bigs. How bout Two and a Half Men if I throw in Troy Murphy?

I absolutely think they deserve better than this. They deserved to go all the way with the unit THEY were accustomed to.

The O'Neal's could do a lot of see things. Let's see what actually happens. You cannot fault me for not putting complete faith in them after their track record this season.
