Shaq Vs Kobe - Who came out on top?
Who knew? Okay, so I just found out this morning that Shaq hasn’t been with the LA Lakers for years. Yes, I sort of watched parts of his big debut last night with the Phoenix Suns, but I still had no idea. So, after a conversation with my boyfriend about The Miami Heat and asking him who Shawn Marion was traded for, is when he broke the news to me. I have a lot of catching up to do with NBA basketball!
Although playing with his pinkie injury and webbed taped fingers, Kobe Bryant scored 41 points, hitting 16 out of 25 shots with 2 steals and 2 blocks in the win during last night’s game;compared to Shaquille O’Neill’s 15 points with 9 rebounds and 2 blocks with assists. The Laker’s 130-124 triumph over The Suns in Shaq’s debut game certainly adds fuel to the Shaq versus Kobe debate.
Considering The Phoenix Suns game strategy is all about the offense with agility and speed paired with knowing what the general public is thinking about his ability, Shaq stated in a press conference, “Steve Nash has instructed me to get my Randy Moss on.” The Point Guard for The Suns comment can only be attributed to NFL football player Randy Moss of The Patriots and his recent awe-inspiring single season record of 23 touchdowns.
