KD taking jabs at Shaq…

 Your right on the money both of those guys are out of line. If Shaq was still on the court KD wouldn’t have said a thing. Dray needs to have some respect because Pierce was a cold blooded killer out there. DefenitEly one of the greatest closers all time. 

I don’t know what’s the deal with Durant. Maybe he’s going thru some type of personal crisis and is just mad at the world. I don’t get it. Shaq wasn’t even talking about him. It’s going to back fire on him and we all know how he gets nervous and just crumbles apart when it counts. These dudes care about what everybody says like everybody is supposed to like them in the world. I don’t think Shaq should back down from anything that he says about them. And now he has another reason to say Durant is sensitive and soft. If it’s true then it’s true. It’s their job to point out if it’s the truth.

When they do the Shaqtin a fool stuff, it’s not made up footage. I can understand him not liking it, but he cant be mad and ask Shaq to stop. It’s actual stuff that McGhee does. It’s not like they photoshopped him going into the stands for a loose ball and then tripping up going down the stands backwards into his own teams bench while smiling the whole trip. lol He does stuff like that all the time over the years.

 I hope the warriors lose to lebron in the finals so bad. 

 maybe its me but it seems shaqtin a fool has made mcghee a lot more popular. i mean people seriously love him for it. them conplaining about this is not a good look for golden state or those complaining about it. i am not a hater of them but i just dont have any respect for the way this organization does things for the most part. and them complaining like this will only add more fuel to the fire. i mean shaq is far from perfect but i dont think he does this to cause harm. shaqs theats tho may come back to haunt him even tho i think most people know its just him having fun and is not serious about it at all

Shaq has been my favorite player since I was a kid but one thing I’ve noticed over the years is that he’s childish and loves attention.

The past few seasons he has used his popularity and TNT to (sometimes justly and equaly if not more times unjustly) criticize/and make fun of McGee. He has gone out of his way to find plays that weren’t McGees fault for the sake of getting a laugh and embarrassing the guy on national television. Kenny and Ernie have tried multiple times to tell Shaq that the clips of McGee he uses weren’t that bad/something that many players do/something he’s even done but Shaq would just ignore them.  He couldn’t stick to his own word of not including him on shaqtin a fool for 3 weeks before he was making fun of him for missing a pass(that was thrown too high for him) These days and especially with a show that’s funny but honestly has grown to cater to the average/casual fan if you put a player on a top 5 blooper list week after weeek those fans will base their opinion on the player. Not only of his game but probably believe he’s dumb period.

I don’t blame McGee for anything he said and agree with his comments or not I respect KD for standing up for his teammate

I’ve said enough bad things about KD so I’ll just skip it this time

About the Draymond-Pierce thing, even though Draymond is easily my 2nd least favorite player (was the clear cut 1st before KD left), I actually really enjoyed what he said to Pierce. Now that might just be because Pierce was my first ever least favorite player, but I don’t see why people are so upset about it. I’m not one of those people that thinks you have to be good enough to talk trash, just that if you do, you better be able to back it up. Draymond never said anything that crossed any lines, and what he said was completely true and just grade A trash talk. Paul Pierce is well past his due date, and he’s not immune from trash talk from anyone. What we should really be talking about is Pierce’s awful, totally unoriginal comeback on twitter

And that is the one time you’ll ever see me defend Draymond about anything. Glad I can now put it behind me

The hate Durant bandwagon has picked up steam again huh?

I’m not a Warriors fan but I just watched the interview and feel there has been context and objectivity missed here.

KD did not go out of his way to ‘take jabs at Shaq’. He was asked (by Warriors media) about the situation with Javale & Shaq. He defended his teammate by highlighting the fact that nobody is perfect and gave EXAMPLES of why Shaq had flaws too. 

This guy blew a 3-1 lead lol? No their Thunder team blew a 3-1 lead. 8 months ago!! if you aren’t an OKC fan you really should have gotton over it by now.

I think the OP missed the point.  KD stated he airballed free throws and missed dunks because if someone wanted to make a Shaqtin’ a fool video on him just like about any player in the league you could.  Shaq just goes out of his way to put Mcgee in that segment.  He brought up things from over 5 years ago.  KD was just sticking up for his teammate.  What does this have to do with Shaq having four rings?

And I’m surprised this hasn’t made bigger news.  I live in Australia and if we had a sports analyst here threatening to bash a current player he ‘analyzes’ this would be front page news.  It’s very unprofessional.

I watched the video and it’s not the least bit funny.  Yes Shaq was a great player but he sucks as an analyst and that’s when I can actually understand the words coming out of his mouth.  

Team Mcgee.

I’ve said this and created a post about this in the past. Shaq is a horrible basketball anylast, and has ruined TNT for me. Yeah, Shaqin a fool is funny, but it’s just basketball bloopers. It doesn’t take a mastermind to put all the mistakes players make, and make a compilation. ESPN would normally anyway show it besides the show. Shaq can’t even take anything without getting mad himself. Who has not seen get mad getting criticism ? Look up him getting mad with Charles.

 He can dish it, but can’t take it. He is a sworn in cop that is threating somebody also. The only thing we get from him is awkward silence or him saying a big man this or that. Yak yak yak or barque chicken. He even pretended to trip on the show, and blame it on Ernie for setting it up. I knew it was him right away, and thought wow this guy is really trying hard to be funny. Shaq is a giant child.

I’m not going to hate on Draymond Green talking his ish. I would have loved it. If I lived in Oakland. But, boy younger Paul Pierce would have dropped the hammer, and put 40pts on him. He is one of the most underrated players ever. It’s really debatable if he is a overall better player than likes of Vince, T-Mac or Iverson. Lebron has said he is the toughest player he has played against, and his greatest rival. I’ve said he is better than Mac and Vince, but maybe I’m biased being a Celtics fan. Also the negs I got for saying he is better than Vince had me questioning myself.

McGee worked his way back from leg stress fractures & other health issues most don’t know about. He wasn’t just given a spot or mins w/ GSW… He earned them & he’s done well IMO. I like Shaqtin a Fool, but he’s been going at McGee for like 6 years. Crazy thing is if you watch the "Dr Strange" video, none of those highlights were from GSW. They were all from the past. IF most are from the past, why are you still going at him? 

I can’t get mad at McGee for standing up for himself finally. And I have no issue with KD standing up for his teammate. Just because Shaq is a HOF player & has rings doesn’t mean you can’t say sh*t to him. Shaq is just coming off very childish. 

 Blocking the shot through the inside of the rim was just the other day. McGee has brought this stuff on himself. Shaq goes at him, yes, but it’s all in good fun. Shaq would have eaten Javalae alive for 40/20. Probably could STILL bust him a good bit tbh. Javalae is playing good now after 10 years of being a dumbass goofball out their not just missing dunks but straight losing the ball.

Draymond is a dirty ass player who ain’t shit without all stars all around him. Can’t wait for the day someone takes exception to one of those kicks and straight knocks his dick in the dirt. Pierce is a HOF player who was actually man enough that he could have and did play in an era where defense(real d) was allowed and he was the absolute TRUTH. Again Draylike Javalae, would have had his ass busted for 40 by Paul in his prime. These guys are a bunch of punk’s. KLAY, IGGY,LIVINGSTON. Those are the only warriors I have respect for.
