Big deal going down earlier today as the Dallas Mavericks acquired Shaquille O’Neal from the Boston Celtics so that they could tear him apart and divide his body parts among their healthy, young, effective players. Here’s an inventory of what’s left of Shaq and how it might help the Mavs get to the promised land.
Knees: Totally worthless.
Abdomen: Best use is probably to insulate thinner players in particularly cold arenas.
Toes: Could potentially be used as fingers.
Head: Far too large to actually fit onto any Mavericks player’s neck, Dallas could potentially use it as a speed bag in the training room.
Inner Ear Bones: Shaq has always had very good balance, but make sure not to put them inside of Jason Terry, or he will think he is a 7’ 400 lb man
Lymph: Shawn Marion could always use a little more lymph
Stomach: Though the temptation is there to use such a strong, durable part, this would be a slippery slope for any player looking to maintain weight
Hands: Tyson Chandler’s hands are pretty ugly, best replace them with Shaq’s smooth, soft mitts
Ian Mahinmi: center’s right elbow has been acting up; Shaq’s will fit well here as long as the Mavs don’t mind watching Mahinmi brick every single free throw
