He couldn't imagine Shaquille O'Neal being unable to respond, getting slaughtered by 58 points!
Kobe saw these comments and was both pleased and annoyed. He really wanted to give Su Wan a call:
"You let Shaq be my number two, I'm happy, you say I can't lead Shaq, I'm not happy!"
As long as the big "Shark" properly assists me, we could at least win another "three consecutive championships!"
At the Miami Arena, Pat Riley was listening to Stan Van Gundy's season-end summary report as head coach.
After the report, Stan Van Gundy mentioned the coverage on Shaquille O'Neal, "Pat, should we touch base with some familiar media and help Shaq pull some reports?"
Otherwise, the intensity is too high.
He feared the "Shark" couldn't bear it.
And...
That way, Shaquille O'Neal might also thank them.
Perhaps then, he might be less resistant to training.
Who would have known Pat Riley would raise his eyebrows in surprise, "Pull reports, why pull reports?"
