MVP curse. lol. Dude really did not get it when he actually won it all. Still deserved for sure. Also, damn Shaq is really insecure.

I have nothing but scorn for Shaq’s whiny reaction based on his chronic unease with other big men, but… I do have to admit that he was the effective league MVP for quite a few more years than he ultimately won.
So in a general sense I’m not that bothered by his saltiness when it comes to MVP’s.

In Shaq’s head, he is motivating him to get out of the 0-2 hole they’re in. But it comes off really poorly.

Uh… sure.

He has a history of doing this with big men he admires. He “negs” them as motivation. But he’s a traumatized person so it always comes off really badly.
