    How big is Shaq's ego?

    The TNT post-game show has been great for years with Charles, Kenny, and Ernie putting on a good show. I have tried to be tolerant of Shaquille O'Neal's massive ego. It's not even funny with Shaq joking about how smart he is, how he normally charges $5,000 a minute for his advice, and how great he was. He makes up his stats, gets ticked off when anybody talks about the first Dream Team, because he wasn't on it. There was a great line tonight by Charles telling Shaq "just because you yell it out doesn't mean it is correct". I loved the fact Charles website is more popular than Shaq's.

    Shaq is okay by himself. But, he sucks having to share the stage with other talented people.

    Get rid of Shaq. Bring back Chris Webber. I'll even take Greg Ostertag!

    He was joking,but it's true, he has no business being on the show.

    They had a good thing going without Shaq.

    Shaq actually said he charges $5,000 a minute for his free advice. Not sure Shaq knows what free means.

    Yeah he sucks in my opinion. He hardly says anything funny, all he really does is shout out peoples names during the recaps. Also is it just me or do Barkley and Shaq seem like they got beef?

    Shaq also can't count. He was saying Van Gundy had six years to get it done and couldn't (naming a bunch of weird stats).

    He only coached there five years.

    I would agree with you, Tofu. There seems to be a definite tension between them.

    Charles gives better insight. Shaq seems to only believe a big center who is an enforcer is what is important. Charles lets people make fun of him. Shaq doesn't appear to like that.I wou

    What about Stan Van Gundy replacing Shaq? I also like Jeff Van Gundy. Reggie Miller is great doing games, but would be excellent in the studio, also.

    Shaq's little noise special effects never did catch on. Tonight he actually tried to explain one of them.

    Shaq sucks, I think Webber is actually really good in the booth and is a good commentator

    I like Chris Webber a lot actually, him and Reggie might be my favorite announcers. I have a feeling that they got stuck with a Shaq contract and that he wont be asked back. Im not sure how it is for mild NBA fans but for us people who watch every post game it gets a little old...

    Also ever since Barkley won his award he thinks hes the shit and has done too much talking...

    The people calling the shots for TNT must not be very bright.

    Why would anyone want Shaq? Did they watch him during his career? When was he insightful or well spoken?

    Reggie Miller butchers the english language worst than a foreigner.

    I think shaq has a contract with TNT. I doubt he stays after the contract is up. Too many people hate him and Charles and Shaq have this awkward tension now and then.

    Shaq paid people to take his online courses for him at University of PHX. His doctorate is a joke. Bryant is much more intelligent that Shaq and he only finished high school. Shaq has to be the dumbest Ph.D. in the history of education.
