Shaq is struggling against the undersized Wizzards, now without Etan Thomas. What more against the long and athletic frontline of the Pistons... Fact is Shaq is not the same player he was 4 years ago, He's relying more on his size and strength, rather than quickness and lateral movement... and he isn't the defensive force he once was.
Does Shaq deserve the 30M/year extension he seeks?

Etan Thomas is a poor man's Ben Wallace
i was not surprise when i saw shaq having a hard time with Etan.

ganda matchup yun Suns and Spurs. The Suns really open up the court and the defence of their opponents because they have such great 3pt shooters. You've got Marion, Q, Joe Johnson and Nash spread out all over!!! And the Man-child in the middle? Amare! Spurs have good defence with Manu and Bowen out there. Tough matchup for Parker(guarding Nash) and whoever at PF since he'll be guarding a shooting forward(Marion) out in 3pt land hehehe
Heat and Pistons din ako sa East. Great to see Zo and Shaq vs Sheed and B-B-B-B-BEN Wallace!!!! :D Thing is, the Pistons have seen shaq and the lakers last year with Kobe, GP and Malone. If you can beat that team... I think, they have a good chance on winning the East.
Update
Miami's up 83-74 just 9 minutes in the 4th canto
Shaq sitted this one out but mourning stepped up big time with 12 pts and 11 caroms...
Ang lakas talaga ng Miami sa Center position, kapalit ni Shaq, Mourning another great veteran.
Looks like the C's are looking towards the future. I came across an article from ESPN saying that they might let go of Payton and Walker next season with the development of Tony Allen, Delonte West and Al Jefferson.
The Spurs - Sonics game was great, down the wire finish, too bad TD, Manu and Parker couldn't hit their free throws, they missed around 6 FTs in the last 3 mins. and it was Physical. Jerome James woke up in time and stuffed a couple in Duncans grill, nasty!
Suns over the Mavericks 119 - 102
Steve Nash 27pts 17 asts.including a sick left handed sky hook over his buddy Dirk.
