This is too funny.

As some of you might recall, during the preseason doldrums, Suns center Shaquille O'Neal took offense with Spurs coach Gregg Popovich's liberal use of the Hack-a-Shaq strategy during the first round of the playoffs last year, calling it "a coward move."

Now fast forward to Wednesday night's Suns-Spurs season opener:

Yes, that was Michael Finley grabbing The Big Confused One off-the-ball a mere five seconds into the game.

Double thumbs up all around!

yes a free throw is supposed to be just that a "free" point. but it is a lot harder when you are over 7 feet tall. the physics of the trajectory of the ball is different then if you were shorter. the problem is that his shot is so flat that the chance that the ball has to go through the hoop decreases. what shaq needs to do is learn how to shoot granny shots.

I do get annoyed with the Hack-a-Shaq but that was a classic.
