Article from S.I. regarding Reke. Shaq showing some love.

[ArcoKings]

I hated Shaq with a passion ever since he called the Kings-the Queens; when he called Bibby a Cup Cake; and when he said Los Angeles is now the capital of California.

In regards to his compliments of Tyreke I thought that was terriffic. I still hate Shaq, though.

He called Bibby a cub scout.

But it was Evans and Jennings who impressed -- and the players many predict will be the first ones back for the main game. In fact, some feel that Evans should have been an All-Star this year, including Shaquille O'Neal, who called him one of the best players in the game.

This guy is a complete idiot. So he mentions Jennings 'overall' game and throws out his whole statline, neglecting to mention Jennings had to take 23 shots to get his 22 points, whereas Evans took 8 less shots and scored more points. This tool mentions how Jennings had 4 steals yet fails to mention Evans FIVE steals, then there is no mention of how Jennings got ran over by Westbrook for at least 20 of his 40 points, yet Evans frustrated OJ Mayo all night and on both ends of the floor where Mayo turned in a sad performance going away with his tail between his tush.

I'm not getting where he lacks 'clarity' in the roy race after this game. Evans clearly dominated the sophs whereas Jenning ran around like a burning ant either creating things for himself or bricking shots. I re-watched the game and honestly Jennings passed the ball barely more than Nocioni does, the only difference is he was putting pressure on the defense because they knew he was looking to score and once they committed to stopping that it left somebody open and Jennings had to bail himself out with a pass. I REALLY don't like Jennings, his game, his ego, his stupid old skool hairdo's. He is hurt that he is not the best pg in this class like he predicted, and I honestly don't think he is even the second best pg in this draft, I think Curry is a better player than Jennings simply based of his unselfishness.

Evans made a lot of impressive moves and shots, the kid has some of the best handles I've seen on a player in a very long time. But there was no wasted motion in his game Friday, he was like a machine, a creative machine, looking to assassinate the D. Jennings seemed like he was out there to make himself look good, get the attention. And he looked pissed when Tyreke got the attention, but the best part about it? Tyreke could care less. Classy move on Tyreke to share the award and to keep feeding Blair down the stretch. Jennings played a little bit of keepaway from Tyreke, and the most telling point of Jennings and his selfishness was on the last play of the game. Jennings had the ball at the top of the key wide open, Blair battling for position. Jennings ignores Blair and fires away, bricks. Blair saves the rebound which Tyreke gets. Tyreke dribbles out to the wing while motioning Blair to get back on the court, and when Blair gets position Reke feeds him. Blair battles, gets tackled by Brooks but still manages to score to get the 20/20. Jennings celebrates, both arms in the air like he helped when in fact he ignored Blair for his own success which, fittingly, thudded off the rim. Chump.

I like Shaq...he's always been a silly goofy guy. People just take what he said too...tremendously serious. Always been good with kids and fans.

But no I wouldn't want him here, mainly because he's just not going to help us out.
