Shaq implies ESPN wants to hire him.

I hope he isn't just a regular panel guy.  I love Shaq, and feel like we will be seeing more and more of him on TV, now that he is retired...but I don't think his strength is as a basketball analyst.  I think he is at his best as just an entertainer, doing things like Shaq Versus.

if he is going to do something with the media, id rather see him on tnt with ej, kenny, and barkley.  adding shaq would be very entertaining to say the least

See, I think that would just be too many clowns.  I feel like Chuck provides the comedy there, and it would just be overkill with Shaq, and they would lose any actual substance. 

It would be fun to see them do the occassional segment together, but as a regular thing, it would get old I think.

TP,I agree DL because Shaq will bring a fresh approach to the table.They could use a shot of fresh energy...Shaq can give accurate info related to the players still playing the game.

He's gonna be fantastic as a TV analyst, assuming that's what he does. I'll be looking forward to watching him.

If Shaq becomes part of the broadcasting crew, I feel bad for the fans who spent all of that money for the seats behind him.

Shaq could block the sun.
