So let's talk.
Back in the month of July, the biggest news in NBA was LeBron's free-agent-ness. The result was LeBron James AND Chris Bosh joining Dwayne Wade at Miami Heat. They were donned the name "The Big 3". I mean, who hasn't heard of LeBron, Bosh and Wade?
HOWEVER. There is a new "Big 3" + 1 + 1 in the NBA, I think.
Shaquille O'Neal, a three-time NBA Finals MVP and fifteen-time All-Star centre, has signed with the Boston Celtics. The 18-year NBA veteran has led four teams to league titles.
This means that: O'Neal joins a star group that includes forward Kevin Garnett, sharpshooter Ray Allen, playmaker Paul Pierce and top guard Rajon Rondo. This also means that the Celtics could have a very strong starting 5, consisting of Rondo (PG), Allen (SG), Pierce (SF), Garnett (PF) and O'Neal as (C). Almost a dream-team kinda thing.
You can see why the title is 3 + 1 + 1. Coz: the 3 are Allen, Pierce and Garnett, the 1 is Rondo, and the other 1 is O'Neal.
Shaq will add more impact to the NBA season opener on October 26 when the Boston Celtics play host to the Miami Heat. Celtics vs. Heat = those 5 vs. The Big 3. Which means that there could well be at least 8 NBA superstars on the court at one time.
Can't wait for the next season,
I am Optimus Prime (aka mattlam), and i send this message to any surviving Autobots taking refuge among the stars. We are here. We are waiting. Autobots, roll out!
