In all seriousness Bammer, losing a team really sucks. Luckily, there are some really fun players to watch on several teams. Just pick a favorite and enjoy the ride.

I'd like the record to reflect that I'm not a fan of Miami Heat Shaq and that I'm not in favor of them retiring his jersey.

Carry on.

The Magic will cave and retire him next even though Shaq leaving probably cost them multiple championships.

Probably. But after watching that 30 for 30 it seems like a lot of that was really the Magic's fault.

Tree Rollins and Scott Skiles deserve it over Shaq. Time makes people forget and it's a copycat league though. Once the Magic see the Lakers unviel that gold 10 ft. off the ground dunking statue of Shaq I give it a week before they make the announcement.

I will be pissed if Shaq gets his jersey retired. T-Mac deserves it more than him. The answer though is Nick Anderson. They retired his number a couple years ago I think.
