Shaq Would Take Brook Lopez Over Dwight...(Jealous Female Dog)

Shaq: Lopez better than D-12

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Shaquille O'Neal doesn't just think Andrew Bynum is better than Dwight Howard.

He'd also take Brook Lopez over D-12 ... assuming he can remember the Nets center's name.

Here's what O'Neal had to say when asked his opinion on who is the best big man in the NBA during a roundtable discussion with fellow TNT analysts posted on NBA.com last week:

"We as players, we always watch people before us. When I came in it was Patrick Ewing and Hakeem Olajuwon, guys who played like true centers who played inside. What we have now are centers that are going to the European style, which is a lot of pick-and-roll. Dwight Howard, who's a pick-and-roll player, some people say he's the best center in the league, but me being an old-school center, I'm going to go with Robin Lopez and Andrew Bynum because they play with their back to the basket."

O'Neal is later asked if he meant Brook Lopez, not his twin brother, Robin.

"Brook. Same thing. They're brothers."

I can understand Bynum...but Brook Lopez?...this is why athletes make awful gm's...then again Shaq is known to be a jealous bytch

I think He means it. We all saw the team he picked for the all-star game

Bynum is a somewhat legit argument, but Shaq just looking like a straight hater now.

[Torrential]

[Van Glorious]

jealousy?

Bynum just had a superstar year after dealing with injuries most of his career. Lopez just had his first injured year, before that, he was always healthy, carrying a poor Nets team, dealing with double teams, and still averaged around 20 points a game. Both of them are 24 years old and both have potential to be consistent All Stars.

With that said, Dwight is still the best center in the league and Shaq is crazy to say any center is better than Dwight right now. Dwight taking the superman name and moving from the Magics to the Lakers is probably pissing Shaq off.

Bynum ..you can make an arguement. But Lopez... thats just hating.
