Eddie is stupid if he still goes to the heat.
Come to LA and waive Shamu! |

Better for Eddie, go to the Heat and let them buy him out. Then he can re-sign with another team and make more money. Go to the Magic, Mavs, Spurs, or Rockets so he can still take advantage of states with no income tax.

IMO, Shaq's comments pretty much kills an Eddie to Miami scenario.
Now it's down to Mavs or LA. |

If Eddie signs with Heat, he would be the classic example of 'Battered Wife Syndrome'... |

Can someone who watched that game comment on how Eddie's D looked? Better or worse(if that's possible) then Smush? |

Eddie always has worked on defense and always has been a smart defender. IMHO, he is too slow to guard any 1 or 2 at this stage of his career. Better suited to guard 3. |

There, he said it, the Diesel done said it! "When I come back..." main while, i got guys to chase on the street of Miami!!! Lol
But for real, Eddie basically brought this on himself, if Miami kick him out once, why would he want to go back with his tails between his legs begging? Oh wait, he thinks they will repeat !  |

| I don't understand why Eddie would want to go back to Miami. Maybe he knows he doesn't have to put up with Shaq until the playoffs, or maybe DWade wanted him more than Shaq wanted him gone. |

| Maybe shaq does hate eddie, but did you guys think that his comments were geared more towards his teammates. Maybe he's letting them know that he's confident in them and their ability to turn things around despite all the turmoil. I think he's just letting his team kno that he believes in their abilities. |

Or another way to look at it:
We don't need anyone else because we have me. As soon as I'm healthy, I'll be able to come back and clean up this mess that my teammates have created.

| I think he was talking specifically about Eddie. Remember when Shaq used to call Eddie 'Flash' (and it wasn't meant as a compliment). I always thought him dubbing Wad 'Flash' was another way to stick it to Eddie. And its no coincidence that Eddie was traded from two Shaq teams. |

Does this comments have something to do with the "KOBE - EDDIE" connection in Philly before Kobe was drafted?

"When I come back...." is a running them with this player.
It's all about when you come back....you never should have left. But, of course with nagging injuries due to a lack of commitment, you don't need help.
Stop chasing kids on the streets, mix in some conditioning, and maybe you wouldn't need help.
Talk about somebody with low self esteem...

Shaq's been sour on Eddie since the 97 playoff series against Utah.
