Shaq Shock: O’Neal Soon to be a Sun

Shaquille O’Neal

Pending a physical examination, it looks like Miami Heat All-Star Shaquille O’Neal is on his way to the Phoenix Suns where he’ll join the likes of two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire, among others. And for Shawn Marion…well, let’s hope he can get used to the Heat. (It’s a wet heat in Miami and a dry heat in Phoenix, I know.)

Does adding Shaq to the Suns do much for their depth or defense? Let’s hope so. O’Neal still has a 60% accuracy rate from the field, but at 350 pounds I don’t know how fast he’s going to be able to run ‘n gun it.

Forget for a moment that “The Shaq Attack” ain’t getting any younger or that he’s a little on the heavy side for a pro basketball player. By adding some serious star power like Shaquille O’Neal to the roster Phoenix fans have one more reason to show up and cheer their team on to victory. And who knows…maybe the Diesel will bring some of his famous celebrity friends to a game every now and then.
