Shaq: President Obama To Blame For Rajon Rondo’s Late Season Struggles
by Tzvi Twersky | @ttwersky

Over the course of a 19-year NBA career, Shaquille O’Neal dominated the ball—and headlines. A little more than two months into retirement, Turner Sports’ newest hire is still dominating headlines. The latest news comes courtesy of his upcoming memoir with Jackie MacMullan, Shaq Uncut.

Broken down chronologically, Shaq Uncut, published by the Hachette Book Group, is packed with O’Neal’s insight and anecdotes from his playing career. None of it is currently as relevant as Shaq’s take on what caused Rajon Rondo’s post-Perkins trade slump.

From the book:

In early March some of the guys went to the museum of Fine Arts for a fund-raiser and got to hang with President Barack Obama. Everyone was a little bit in awe. The President turns to Ray, points at Rondo, and says, “Hey, Ray, why don’t you teach this kid how to shoot?” Everyone starts laughing.

…

KG told me he saw the look on Rondo’s face and the kid was devastated, embarrassed. Dissed by the President, even though I’m sure Obama didn’t mean any harm. Rondo smiled and went along with all of it, but KG told me he could see it in his eyes. It bothered Rondo. It killed him.

The next day Rondo shot the ball horribly. He stopped taking shots after that. He’s so sensitive. I think it was a real jolt to hear the outside perception of a basketball fan who happens to be the President of the United States. It messed with his mind. I’m sure of it.

Well worth a cover-to-cover read, Shaq Uncut is available for pre-order now and debuts on Novemeber 15, 2011.

4 reasons why Shaq is wrong:

without perkins to pull heat down low and beat people up, there were closer and fresher defenders to shut down rondo.

rondo's a skinny twink.

Sarah Palin has a 92 IQ and Rick Perry made 11 year old girls get dangerous HPV shots.

Without perkins beating up the others teams' low end scorer, the Celtics were trailing more often in the 4th quarter, meaning Rondo had to force things that weren't there.

The Obama disaster will have catastrophic results for decades.    He is setting the ME up for massive war far worse than iraq.

Sure, Wilson is still the worst president in history, hands down.

Obama is still a classless jerkoff and this guy should have responded "someone please teach this guy how to be president!".


Bama would have shit his pants.

Considering that Rajon has an NBA Championship Ring, I'd doubt if he cares at this point and time.  But blaming the president for a jump shot is a bit over the top

Bama's statement shows what a classless piece of dirt he is.  Should have turned around and said to bama

"Fuck you and get back to me when UE goes under 9 percent".
