Shaq Faces Backlash For "Inappropriate" Comments Towards Angel Reese

This who y’all defending…

PHOENIX -- Shaquille O'Neal will lose his special deputy's badge in Maricopa County because of language he used in a rap video that mocks former teammate Kobe Bryant.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said the Phoenix Suns center's use of a racially derogatory word and other foul language left him no choice. Arpaio made Shaq a special deputy in 2006 and promoted him to colonel of his largely ceremonial posse later that year.

"I want his two badges back," Arpaio told The Associated Press on Tuesday. "Because if any one of my deputies did something like this, they're fired. I don't condone this type of racial conduct."

Shaq was seen in a video posted on the celebrity news and gossip Web site TMZ.com rapping that "Kobe couldn't do without me." O'Neal skewers the Lakers' star, with whom he won three straight NBA titles from 2000-2002 while with Los Angeles, for not being able to win a championship without him.

"I was freestyling. That's all. It was all done in fun. Nothing serious whatsoever," O'Neal told ESPN.com Monday. A call to the Suns on Tuesday seeking comment from O'Neal was referred to his public relations firm, which didn't immediately respond.

Arpaio, who describes himself as "America's Toughest Sheriff" and is best known for feeding jail inmates green bologna, clothing them in pink underwear, and making them work on chain gangs, said he didn't expect his actions would teach Shaq a lesson. But he hoped he learns that as a role model who wants to someday be a full-time sheriff, he needs to know his words matter.

"Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I don't think that either conduct should be out there publicly, even if media wasn't there," Arpaio said.

O'Neal previously served as a reserve officer with the Miami Beach Police Department while playing for the Miami Heat. He also volunteered with the Tempe Police Department after being traded to the Suns in February.

So what are you saying, because of someones past they shouldn't be defended in any circumstance?

She has literally used the word “mentor” when speaking about him.

this conversation is centered around facts.
Which means we discuss the facts and not ignore them to make wild proclamations that invalidate the offended’s response to the offense in question.

Your perspective is irrelevant because it’s hyperbole.

Shit was thirsty creepy and uncalled for.
She can do what she wants with her profile, don’t mean we have the right to treat her as if that is the culmination of her being.

i guess that means we should be creepy to everyone that has participated in the Body Issue of ESPN Magazine huh?
 
Suggesting she put a picture of herself in biker shorts to make some money is treating her as if that is the culmination of her being lmao I viewed it as a business suggestion yall viewing it as her uncle asking her to inbox him photos herself in booty shorts.

NBA players have been suggesting ways they can make the game more profitable for going on ten years and people on here seem to fall in line with women talking points.

"Yes, the WNBA has lost money every year since its founding:

Losses
NBA commissioner Adam Silver said in 2018 that the WNBA had lost more than $10 million per year on average since its inception. In 2024, the WNBA was expected to lose $40–$50 million."

Businesses are in business to profit. Shaq has become one of the best athlete turn businessmen after his retirement. The easiest form of getting business is selling sex even if its subtle. If womens tennis wore what the guys wear the views would diminish. Same for womens gymnastics, if ABW got rid of candy shop then more half its members would be gone.

No one is having that conversation with other sports because they aren't constantly losing money.

The beginning of the NBA, players were wearing hoochie daddy shorts.

Nah you just a weirdo that’s trying to make excuses for other weirdos.

That was shaq testing the waters to see if he could play some saw her reaction and adjusted his method.

Creepy nigga shit.

Not some altruistic way to help promote a woman’s sport.

How you sexualizing someone while trying to be a bleeding heart at the same time?!

Cut it out.
 
Shaq ain't shit for that, but I'm also not sure what other type of response is expected to pics like that.

Half the niggas crying foul probably had the same kinda thoughts. Most just aren't as dumb as Shaq when it comes to voicing them.
She looked at Shaq as a mentor of sorts he betrayed that thats the difference... it out of pocket else where but concerning coming from someone who is thought to have been im tha role

Shaq is a scumbag for that. Full stop. No debate about that.

That said, there wouldn't have been a conversation about her in booty shorts if she wasn't putting that imagery out there.

I just honestly don't understand why chicks who say they don't want that type of attention take pics like that. It doesn't make sense to me, but maybe it's just me being old fashioned.

I think this is the perfect middle ground honestly. I just don’t feel comfy calling Shaq a scum bag, cuz of the ease in which you cans ruin a man’s image over maybe a clunky way in which he said what he said. Especially if he didn’t say it out of malice, and was just talking….but I don’t know Mr O’Neal, he very well can be a creep.

You ever heard of an unintended consequence?

I said my piece of how you niggas are sheep and just latch onto what’s presented by accounts on social media most of the time without the proper context

Why would I go back and forth all day over this?

Niggas gonna think what they want even if they are ultimately wrong or not

Who cares man?
