"I don't know if there is a way [to stop me]," O'Neal said Wednesday before
the team left for Chicago. "I've seen all types of defenses, and one
conversation that [coach Pat] Riley and I had last summer was to get some
guys who could shoot the ball and some guys who could be able to finish, and
that's what he did. If Antoine and Jason and Posey are going to keep
shooting like that, I'm going to keep looking for them.
"I'm on a mission every time I come out in the postseason. So the big issue
is getting my guys looking for me and I'm looking for my guys. We're just
going to continue doing what we do. If they don't double, it's vital that I
go to work. If they do double, I'll kick it out to my guys and hope they're
hitting their shots."

I guess Snaq is a little fuzzy on what constitutes being "stopped". To
me, 2 points in 3 quarters is pretty much dead stopped. But maybe not
in neanderthal logic.

In other words, let's get a bunch of real players to make up for the
fact that I can't hit my fat ass with both hands. Can you imagine
Jordan saying anything like that? Or Kareem? Even Wilt, the other
overrated moron who had little other than size never needed so much
support to succeed.

Probably wore out both brain cells on that jumble.

I know he's being diplomatic but...that's exactly the opposite of what they
did, and that's why they're not inner circle contenders any more.

When Antoine retires sales of orange paint will decline by 40%
