Although the Warriors of 2017 are nothing less than legendary, former Lakers legend Shaquille O’Neal believes they will not get the better of the Lakers of 2001.
Shaq said, “I think we win, we gonna win because we got Kobe. I say we can win because who’s gonna guard me and Kobe, right? Here’s my rebuttal. Once they get hot, D Fish send them to the whole, I’m gonna lay their whole a** out.”

This came after Curry made some controversial comments. Safe to say, a matchup between these super teams will be a treat to watch for all NBA fans.
