Shaquille O’Neal signs with Celtics
Shaquille O’Neal and the Boston Celtics came to terms on a 2-year contract worth $3 million, adding to the size and bulk in Boston’s front line. The 15-time All Star will end his career with one of the most historic franchises in professional sports.
Shaq will definitely cause hype in Boston, but we must wonder how much diesel is left in the tank. He still has some thump to his game, but he is not getting any faster.
Shaq fills a void caused by Kendrick Perkins, who is recovering from knee surgery.
Shaq is selling yet another NBA jersey this year.
Shaq hopes to reinforce the Celtics chances of retaining their position as the best team in the Eastern Conference, but will it be enough to keep the new Miami Heat out of the NBA Finals?
The Celtics might have gotten bigger, and possibly better, but they also got slower and much older. The Celtics brass must also know their FT % will be much worse.
