''I've been in basketball a long, long time and I have to say [Cousins is] the most talented big guy I have ever seen,'' Divac said Monday. ''Shaq wasn't talented, he was just strong. I was talented, but I wasn't strong.'' Divac went on to call O'Neal one of the most dominant players ever.

''I want to see him be a leader of this team, truly the leader and make everybody better,'' Divac said. ''He can do it with his passing, with the ability to score. He can do everything.''

O'Neal, who knocked Divac and the Kings out of the playoffs in three straight seasons from 1999-2001, is now a minority owner with the team and one of Divac's bosses. ''He always was my boss,'' Divac said.

Ya'll agree with that :patrice:


Shaq's footwork around the basket was all talent. That's some shyt you work on, especially for someone his size. I think people look at his youtube clips, see him bulling over people and make their judgement off his strength, not the footwork that helped make his opponents off-balance. He was also a willing and very good passer out of the post.
