Shaq to interview for the GM position in Orlando

jeffb · 05-23-2012, 10:59 PM

Well, this would be interesting...The Magic have become the joke of the league. I hope they get him and Howard still wants out. Would be interesting to see what he does.

Shaquille O'Neal will interview with the Magic for their general manager vacancy, according to a source.

O'Neal was drafted by the Magic in 1992.

O'Neal retired following the 10-11 season.

The Magic believe the presence of O'Neal within the front office would help their chances of retaining Howard. Sources close to O'Neal and Howard contend they have a friendly relationship. O'Neal has been a confidante to Howard throughout the season as he has dealt with an uncertain future with the franchise.

He was just wearing a snorkling mask on TV after the Clippers lost to the Spurs. I wouldn't take what Shaq thinks too seriously.

Shaq thinks Bynum is the best center in the NBA.

Shaq thinks all top bigmen should average 28+20 or their teams arent going to win.

Shaq would build a worse team than the Bobcats.

GM? LOLllllllOololollllllOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLlololololooll

This guy can't even evaluate talent properly and he wants to be a GM? HAHA! A GM has to consider so many things (salaries/picks/short-term/long-term/etc.) that Shaq can't handle.

Isn't there a rift between Shaq and Dwight in the first place?

Shaq Has No Interest In Orlando GM Job

Shaquille O'Neal released a statement saying he has no interest in the general manager vacancy with the Magic.

O'Neal has worked with TNT during his first year post-retirement.

“When I first heard about the vacancy for the Orlando Magic general manager position, I was clearly intrigued.” he said in a statement. “I was drafted by the Magic, I have a great love for the franchise, and I have made the city of Orlando my home. Additionally, I have great admiration and respect for the DeVos family. However, this is not a job I have an interest in pursuing. I feel very fortunate to be with TNT and to have the best job in sports. I look forward to many more years with Charles, Kenny and E.J. I wish the best for the Magic and I am confident that they will select a great GM and coach.”
