You can say a lot of things about Shaquille O’Neal and his screwball antics. But sometimes, the nuggets of wisdom that spew forth from that gargantuan melon make a helluva lot of sense. Shaq proposed his plan for saving the Dunk Contest tonight and it’s sound.
The Shaq That Saved The Dunk Contest
↵↵“As his manager, I will only allow ‘Bron to do the dunk contest if Vince Carter comes back out,” O’Neal said. “If Kobe comes back out and if another big name comes back out. If we could get a big prize and have half of the money go to the people of Haiti and the other half to the winner.
↵“I’m saying it now,” O’Neal said. “So tweet it. Facebook it. E-mail it and hopefully it gets out. Vince, we’re calling you out. Kobe, we’re calling you out. We’re calling everybody out. If those guys step up in the dunk contest, then I will allow my client to step up.”
↵↵I would HOPE that the millionaire who would win this contest would gladly give their half of the prize to the people of Haiti as well. But that aside, it’s a fool-proof idea. Make it happen, Nike reps that control LeBron and Kobe’s strings.
