:mjtf:How? He hasn't been in the NBA since 2012.
Would Home Depot be responsible If a cashier at Home Depot had a mental breakdown and became homeless 5 years after he quit his job at Home Depot?
Shaq retired in 2012. If he was going through a similar situation How do you think the NBA would respond?

the nba & home.depot policy on care for former employees are different i would think

the league is fraternal & nikkas got they brother out there

the mavs ain't on it¿

he's in dallas a city where he played the franchise ain't looking out¿

Why? They're both businesses.The league don't give a fukk about it's players once they're retired. Look at all the players who go broke.

" Our thoughts and prayers go out to Shaq and his family. NBA Cares knows that mental health is a serious issue and we hope he gets the help he needs.":mjgrin:

Especially with that mental health campaign they was pushing. It does not sit well when one of their own is visibility affected.
EXACTLY. They got an opportunity to practice what they preach and help one of their own. It probably wouldn’t even cost them anything to help him. Whatever type of help he need, I’m sure a company would do that shyt for free just for the clout.
