Rasheed Wallace says there’s no comparing Victor Wembanyama to prime Shaquille O’Neal
“Wamba Wamba is a good player. He's a great player for today. But the difference, of course, is the body weight. Shaq was outweighing guys by at least 80 pounds. If you didn't have another big man that was like 7'1", 7'2" yo come on”
“It's times I'm letting him know, ‘Big fella, I'm about to foul you.’ Cuz I don't want to catch one of them on purpose elbows. He was the best athlete in the world in his prime”
“Wamba Wamba definitely got a better jump shot than the big fella. But the big fella, he gonna come with the left handed hook, right handed hook and you gotta stop him”
Allen Iverson says he didn’t invent the crossover. A Georgetown walk-on who never played a minute taught it to him, and made him a legend instead of himself
Interviewer: “I was surprised to learn that you learned the crossover from a guy from Brooklyn who barely played at Georgetown”
AI: “Look at what that guy gave me”
Interviewer: “But you learned it from another guy. You didn’t make it up”
AI: “He didn’t even have his name on the back. The most important thing for me when I was going to college is I always wanted my name on the back of my jersey. This guy did not have a name on the back. He was a walk-on”
Interviewer: “He didn’t play”
AI: “Didn’t even play. But he had a nasty crossover. He used to hit me with that thing at practice. I put my pride aside, my ego, ‘Hey, come here, man. You gotta show me how to do it.’ And to this day, he still says, ‘Yours is better than mine’”
Bleacher Report has ranked the Miami Dolphins 32nd in the NFL ahead of training camp
“The Dolphins should have a real shot at the No. 1 overall pick in 2027, which they could likely ransom for a hefty return if (Malik) Willis proves to be a quality starter.”
🎥 Patrick Paul believes the 2026 Miami Dolphins will shock people:
"I expect them to see a gritty team. With this new leadership, we're definitely coming different... a hard working team that's going to be very disciplined, a team that's going to play all through four quarters, all different weather situations. Just expect a team that's going to go out there and shock people." (@thesetshow_) #PhinsUp

Shaquille O'Neal reveals American Express thought his credit card had been stolen after he spent $70,000 at Walmart
"I have the biggest purchase in Walmart history: $70,000. I got traded from Miami to Phoenix, and I'm the type of guy who has no patience. I get to Phoenix, they have an apartment for me, but nothing's in it. So at 2 or 3 in the morning, I gotta go get four or five TVs. I gotta go get printers, I gotta go get laptops. I gotta go get appliances, sheets, towels, underwear, T-shirts."
"So in the end, it was $70,000. It got declined, so I pulled it out and put it back in. It said declined again. So now I'm saying, 'I know I'm not broke.' So then I just said, 'Alright, I'll be back.'"
"Then American Express security called me and said, 'Hey man, somebody stole your credit card and they spent $70,000 at Walmart.' I said, 'No, that was me.' They said, 'What the hell are you buying for $70,000?' So they turned it back on."
Shaquille O’Neal says Pat Riley wanted him shredded like Alonzo, Shaq’s answer: “This is what I average against him, 41, 19 and 6”
“Quick story. Miami, playing for Pat Riley, Pat Riley’s a stat guy. So one day he brings in Alonzo Mourning. He says, Shaq, you know the guys had their body fat, Alonzo, take your shirt off. I want you to look like this”
“Alonzo’s chiseled. I said, Impressive. Coach, let me show you something. Alonzo, you look good. But coach, this is what I average against him: 41, 19 and 6”
“He said, Yeah, yeah, yeah… He wanted the big guys at 10% body fat. I said, Coach, I’m a fried-chicken-cheeseburger guy, I’m not eating no salads. That’s just not what I do”
