So this is where Shaquille O'Neal comes to hide.Actually, he's not hiding at all. He's not flying low to the ground, and he's not slumming. Short of zooming back to Los Angeles (hard to do on a burned bridge) or Miami (ditto), he's apparently close to signing up with the most storied franchise this league has. One of the more popular, one of the most prominent, and one of two that you last saw playing official hoops a month and a half ago. The Celtics.
Shaq in Boston, sportin' the green. Chasing that ring, we'd assume. Chasing down prominence, again. From Kobe to Wade to LeBron. Now in with a series of like-minded fogies. Boston? I suppose it makes sense.
Kendrick Perkins, Boston's dutiful defensive-minded pivot man, will be out until January. The team signed Jermaine O'Neal, but (hopefully) with the knowledge that his 2009-10 re-birth appeared to slide closer toward the spires of flukedom, than an actual re-charge. Rasheed Wallace is trade bait, Shelden Williams is no more. The C's need a center. Via Ball Don't Lie
