LeBron MVP 2009-2019 Posts: 134	Just think guys we bought Shaq over here for only one team and one player (Dwight Howard) that he really can help us with. I never agreed with the Shaq trade. Sure Howard made our life difficult in the playoffs last year but I always said he didn't beat us. Their perimeter guys did so during the offseason I just wanted to pick up a good perimeter defensive player like Ariza, Artest or even just a more versitale forward like Charlie V and we could of easily signed one of those players to a nice contract if we wouldn't of traded for Shaq cause we would of had the cap space to do so. Tell me what you guys think.

Shaq isnt our problem, quit bashing on him.. Dude gave us 14 pts, 10 rb, 3 assists & 5 blocked shots tonight

I'm sure the Cavs would of traded ben for nothing (or released him) even if it wasn't for the Shaq trade, so im sure that we could of had the cap space
