Just not too long ago after he said he would choose to play with prime Kobe over prime LeBron, Shaquille O'Neal said some pretty nice things about the Cleveland Cavaliers small forward today.
O'Neal commented about the time he played with James in the 2009-10 NBA season. The Cavs were one of the NBA title favorites, but struggled with chemistry. Shaq only played 53 games that year, and they struggled despite acquiring Antawn Jamison at the trade deadline.
Shaq, who played key parts in the NBA Finals victories with the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat, says playing with LeBron and the Cavs was the first time he didn't have to do everything.
"It was the first time I didn't have to do everything," he said, via Bleacher Report's Ethan Skolnick.
Shaq has had his fair share of playing with the league's top superstars of this generation, such as LeBron, Kobe and Dwyane Wade.
Him saying that about LeBron isn't surprising, and he isn't the first player who has echoed these sentiments about the four-time MVP.
