Enter hell no from Jerry Buss. Enter trade to Miami, $100 million dollar deal, and a newly motivated Shaq.
Well, Shaq lost motivation last season and for the beginning of this season, before completely quitting on his team. For his non-effort, he was rewarded by being traded to the Suns. He “refound” his motivation and, well, promised to bring Phoenix a title.

Apparently the Miami Heat and the Phoenix Suns have agreed on a trade that would send Shaquille O'Neal to Phoenix in exchange for Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks. I believe this is simply a knee-jerk reaction to the Los Angeles Lakers' acquisition of Pau Gasol (a brilliant move by L.A., by the way) and do not see how this trade can make sense from the Suns' vantage point.

eles Lakers, Portland Trailblazers, Los Angeles Clippers, Seattle Sonics, Milwaukee Bucks, Atlanta, Miami, Orlando, New Orleans, and I apologize if I left anyone out, who cow towe to team owners, peer groups, and making money, glitz, glamor, being effeminate, etc. There are also professional basketball players who cow towe to their concept of self. They always go to their strength. Their strength resides in their hearts and minds. They believe in who they are because they know who they are. Money, team owners, peer groups, glitz, glamor, being effeminate, etc. are particles of dust when juxtaposing them to their desire to perform to their greatest abilities as a professional basketball player.
