Hall of Famer Charles Barkley’s candid take on other NBA teams trying to model themselves after the Golden State Warriors. There is no denying that the Golden State Warriors are the flag bearers for revolutionizing the game of basketball in the modern era. Stephen Curry and co have changed the landscape forever with their ability to run the floor, followed by their never before seen shooting.

The NBA today is much more skill-based than it ever was. The 3-ball is no more a luxury but a necessity, especially for potential aspirants wanting to go pro.

Size is no more the only criterion to make the league, with bigs like Giannis Antetokounmpo, Joel Embiid, and Nikola Jokic constantly striving to better their jumper despite being close to seven-feet tall. There are seldom players today that possess the ability to terrorize in the paint, such as what the likes of Shaquille O’Neal did in the past.

While superstars like the Greek Freak continue to keep the paint game alive, possessing a long-range will certainly draft you higher. Also read: Power forward Charles Barkley, used to “run like Derrick Rose and finish like Russell Westbrook” Despite this fundamental change, veteran forward Charles Barkley believes teams shouldn’t model their style of play to that of the Warriors.

Nicknamed the Round Mound of the Rebound, Barkley called out today’s bigs for not utilizing their size.

“Why do I want guys physically bigger and stronger at the perimeter”: Charles Barkley throws shade at today’s centers. Hailing from the old-school era, Barkley doesn’t understand the league’s obsessions with the 3-point ball. While he has nothing against the Warriors, the former MVP doesn’t fathom everyone attempting to emulate them and not playing their natural game.

“NBA made a big mistake when everybody tried to model themselves after the Golden State Warriors. Couple of reasons why I think it is stupid to play like that is because no.1 you take your size advantage out of the game, Why do I want Karl-Anthony Towns, DeMarcus Cousins, Anthony Davis, Andre Drummond, Blake Griffin, why do I want guys physically bigger and stronger, why do I want them out on the perimeter?” Adding to The Chuckster’s points, teams barring GSW have failed to develop individuality, something Steve Kerr and his crew continue to reap benefits after.

However, this is changing, evidence being the MVPs of the last four seasons with Giannis and Jokic winning, two each.

Nonetheless, the Dubs continue to hold the secret recipe when it comes to winning on the ultimate stage.

One player, who has been tipped to get a huge sum in the auction is Australian all-rounder Cameron Green.

Pat Cummins supports Cameron Green’s IPL move Australian captain Pat Cummins has agreed that he wants to save Cameron Green from burning out. Green is slowly making his way in all three formats of the game, and there are a total of confirmed 15 tests scheduled in the next months.

He has been a key part of Australia’s red-ball setup in every condition. Australia have also even used Green as a sole batter only in the ODI series against Sri Lanka.

Cummins said that it is a great indication that even if Green is not bowling, he can be used as a batter only. This has been an astonishing display of hitting from Cameron Green. His height has made it really difficult to get the right length. No fear batting.

— Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) September 25, 2022 “It’s one my first thoughts whenever I bowl him is we don’t want to burn him,” Pat Cummins said at CA Sponsor event. “It’s been a huge win from the medical side of things to have him play as much cricket as he has over the last couple of years, fortunately he can fall back on his batting even if he’s not bowling.

There are 15 Tests in the next few months plus a World Cup.” ALSO READ: R Ashwin predicts Cameron Green to earn huge sum in IPL 2023 There are rumours that Cricket Australia are planning to stop Green from playing in the IPL, but Cummins said that Green can’t be blamed for playing in the IPL for obvious reasons.

“You can’t really blame anyone for going in the IPL. He’s going to have huge demand on him wherever he plays. Decisions will be made, there’s a lot of cricket around,” Cummins added.

Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe’s distasteful Tweet regarding Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa’s injury ended up sparking an outrage on Twitter. The Miami Dolphins are facing a lot of flak on Twitter for what they did with their main quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. After a 3-0 start to the season, fans were expecting the Miami-based franchise to rest Tua, especially after what happened in the clash against the Bills.

Tua had suffered a back injury against the Buffalo Bills and he surely didn’t look in good shape for a while. However, he was cleared to play against the Bengals which eventually turned out to be a horrible decision.

Miami’s QB1 was sacked with 6 minutes left before halftime by Bengals DE Josh Tupou. He rammed on the ground and was immediately carted off the field. Moreover, what really frightened the fans was how Tua responded after sustaining the injury.

He was seen contorting his fingers which hinted that he had suffered head trauma. Also read: “Aaron Rodgers would be called a Diva for this”: NFL fans react as angry Tom Brady shatters another tablet Shannon Sharpe apologizes for insensitive Tweet about Tua Tagovailoa’s injury As soon as the visuals of Tua’s injury went viral, Twitteratis went ballistic.

Many slammed the Dolphins as well as the NFL for not paying adequate attention to the safety of the players. However, amidst all this, NFL analyst Shannon Sharpe Tweeted something about Tua’s injury that ended up drawing a lot of backlash.

“Wonder if Tua/Dolphins call this a back injury. Can’t wait to hear diagnosis,” the NFL Hall of Famer wrote on Twitter. After facing backlash, Shannon quickly deleted the Tweet and issued an apology.

“I deleted my previous post because it wasn’t the right thing to say. I apologize for my lack of sensitivity dealing with the injury.” I deleted my previous post because it wasn’t the right thing to say. I apologize for my lack of sensitivity dealing with the injury.

I believe the Dolphins lied about Tua injury on Sunday and put him in this predicament. Again, I apologize for lapse in judgement — shannon sharpe (@ShannonSharpe) September 30, 2022 “I believe the Dolphins lied about Tua injury on Sunday and put him in this predicament.

Again, I apologize for lapse in judgement,” he added. The damage was done before Shannon could issue an apology and while a few fans opined that what Shannon said wasn’t actually wrong, many reprimanded him for being way too insensitive at a time when someone has suffered such a dangerous injury.

As far as Tua is concerned, the Dolphins updated that he will fly back to Miami and is responding well to the treatment. Fans are hoping to see the Dolphins QB back in action soon.

Erling Haaland has made an astonishing start to his Manchester City career (Picture: Getty) Manchester United were not among the seven clubs Erling Haaland considered signing for this summer. The Red Devils came close to securing the services of the Norwegian goalscoring machine when he left RB Salzburg for Borussia Dortmund while he was still a largely unknown quantity approaching three years ago.

The influence of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Haaland’s coach during his formative years at Molde, failed to convince the prolific striker to move to Old Trafford and he subsequently cemented a reputation as one of Europe’s most feared strikers during his spell in the Bundesliga.

Haaland has hit the ground running since his £51.2 million move to the Premier League and has already scored 15 goals in 12 appearances for club and country this term, making a mockery of the fears he would struggle to adapt to Pep Guardiola’s tactical demands and the physical nature of English football.

United can only cast envious glances at their local neighbours, especially given their failure to compete for his signature and inability to secure the services of the new centre forward manager Erik ten Hag craved during the transfer window.

Explaining the process of selecting his new club in the documentary Haaland — The Big Decision, which was aired this month on Viaplay, the Scandinavian streaming service, Erling’s father, Alfe Inge, a former City player himself, explained the points system his son devised which helped him settle on a decision.

‘On our list, I think City is the best team,’ Alfie said in the film, a few months before his son made his decision.

Erling Haaland is set for his first taste of the Manchester derby this weekend (Picture: Getty) ‘[Bayern] Munich is number two. We have Real Madrid as number three, Paris Saint-Germain as number four. ‘We also have some English teams other than City who are quite good .

. . Liverpool and Chelsea. Also, there is Barcelona. They are sort of in the same row.’ Haaland has thrived as the focal point in Guardiola’s attack but the striker claimed the manager wasn’t a pivotal factor in determining his destination. He said: ‘I have never transferred to a club because of the manager but it is a big plus with [Pep] Guardiola at City, he is the best manager in the world.’ Explaining the decision to reject a contentious move Bayern and turn down the overtures of Ligue 1 giants PSG, meanwhile, Alife added: ‘One of the criteria is about whether the club needs a No 9.

‘City is ten [out of ten] in that respect.

Bayern Munich gets one point for that, they don’t need a No 9. They have their best player as a No 9, but if he [Lewandowski] goes, then they have no one else. ‘It would have been quite controversial to go to Munich but when we go through it, it’s one of the best teams.

Real Madrid are a five or six [out of ten]. They have [Karim] Benzema, and will they get Mbappe?’ MORE : Gabriel Jesus a better signing than Erling Haaland, says Gabriel Agbonlahor MORE : Harry Kane claims ‘incredible’ Erling Haaland is motivating Premier League strikers to score more For more stories like this, check our sport page.

The PGA Tour has launched legal proceedings against the LIV Golf series The PGA Tour has alleged that the Saudi-backed LIV Golf series offered massive sums of money to players to breach their contracts as part of the ‘sportswashing’ of Saudi Arabia’s international reputation, as the American organization launched a counter-claim lawsuit.

LIV had claimed in prior litigation proceedings that the PGA had violated accepted competition laws by suspending and fining rebel players who had joined the breakaway group. However, in a sternly-worded legal complaint, the PGA said that LIV Golf’s strategy was to profit from the reputations of players who succeed on the PGA Tour, and host them on its own platforms.

“A key component of LIV's strategy has been to intentionally induce Tour members to breach their Tour agreements and play in LIV events while seeking to maintain their Tour memberships and play in marquee Tour events, so LIV can free ride off the Tour and its platform,” the lawsuit claims.

Read more Woods & McIlroy launch new golf league amid Saudi rebels row It argued that the entire LIV Golf series appeared designed to use the sport as a vehicle with which to ‘sportswash’ Saudi Arabia’s reputation on the international stage, which follows the country’s high-profile hosting of various other sporting events, including Formula 1 and boxing.

A selection of internationally renowned players has joined up with LIV Golf, including six-time major winner Phil Mickelson and former number one-ranked player Dustin Johnson.  Mickelson was reportedly paid a sum of $200 million to join LIV Golf, while Johnson is said to have earned $150 million.

Another player, Cameron Smith, admitted that money was a key factor in his decision to make a similar move.  Swedish star Henrik Stenson forfeited his captaincy of Europe’s Ryder Cup team to join up with the breakaway group.

Captaincy of the Ryder Cup is generally considered to be among the biggest honors a player can achieve in their career.

In its initial response, however, LIV Golf said that it is confident that the legal system will show that it has not been involved in any wrongdoing. “The Tour has made these counterclaims in a transparent effort to divert attention from their anti–competitive conduct,” it said in a statement.

“We remain confident that the courts and the justice system will right these wrongs.” READ MORE: Rebel Saudi league golfers sue PGA over sanctions

Warriors superstar Stephen Curry shares a cute moment with his son Canon as he replicates what his uncle Seth Curry did Stephen Curry is one of the most successful athletes of our generation. The 6’2 point guard has shown us how trusting a system and constantly working on ourselves can yield rewards.

Curry was drafted by the Warriors in 2009, a time when the Dubs had made the playoffs only once in 15 seasons. Steph took the load of the franchise on his shoulders, and led them to four championships in the last eight years. During the same time, Curry earned 2x MVP honors, and recently became a Finals MVP too.

While leading a successful career, Steph never compromised on his family too. He’s married to Ayesha Curry, and together they have three beautiful children, two daughters and a son. We all know Riley all too well, thanks to her cute antics post-game during the 2014/15 playoffs.

Last season, we saw many clips of Canon in the locker room and him interacting with different members of the Warriors organization. We’ve also seen Ayesha Curry put clips of Canon trying to dribble the basketball as his dad does.

In another clip uploaded by Steph, we can see Canon trying to imitate his Uncle Seth and amuse his father. Stephen Curry sees Seth as his successor and we’ve seen the two of them hang around basketball courts a lot. During the summer league, we saw the father-son duo hang out at the Chase Center and catch the games.

It was reminiscent of Steph and Dell Curry from back when the superstar was a kid. Also Read: “Jordan Poole Would Be the First to All-Star!”: Andrew Wiggins Backs Warriors Teammate, Expects A Big ‘Poole Party’ From the looks of it, Canon is highly interested in the sport.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen have been in the NFL spotlight for a long time, and rumor after rumor continues to swirl about the downfall of their relationship. The Buccaneers quarterback made the shocking decision to retire earlier this offseason, but after 40 days, the NFL GOAT decided enough was enough, and he ‘unretired.’ While NFL fans were thrilled with his decision, many reports came out saying that Brady’s wife, Gisele Bündchen, wasn’t too happy with the decision.

The rumors got bigger and bigger as the season approached. Brady took time off during training camp and the preseason to deal with personal problems, speculated to be his marriage with Gisele.

Gisele has also come out to say that she had concerns about Brady unretiring, and she also made it clear that she felt as if she had sacrificed enough in her career and that it was time to focus on herself.

Bündchen didn’t attend Brady’s first home game of the NFL season, even though one would think that’s an easy thing to do. https://t.co/EaVok37QaY — VANITY FAIR (@VanityFair) September 30, 2022 Also Read: Jealous Peyton Manning Was Blown Away by Aaron Rodgers’ Insane Throwing Skills Are Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen cheating on each other? With all the marital problem reports, many fans also speculated if something else was up with the power couple.

Tom Brady has a net worth of $250 million and Gisele Bündchen has a net worth of $400 million, giving them a combined $650 million fortune.

Thinking outside just football, fans have been wondering if there was infidelity in Brady and Gisele’s relationship. A source told Page Six that Brady and Gisele took separate vacations during the summer as after the couple went to the Bahamas together, Gisele went to Costa Rica with the kids on her own.

However, a source close to Brady and Gisele’s family told Page Six that there was no cheating involved in the relationship, and the problems are entirely different.

Ultimately, we’ll probably never know what is going wrong with Brady and Gisele’s relationship unless one of them speaks up about it. However, that’s unlikely, and for now, rumors and reports are all we’ll get.

Anthony Davis sets the agenda for the upcoming season, revealing being healthy as his only goal. The past two years haven’t been the most comfortable for Lakers big man Anthony Davis, struggling with injuries followed by criticism of not taking care of his durability. When healthy, no doubt The Brow is a top 5 player in the league.

However, AD is unable to fulfill the above condition on most occasions. Post his sensational outing in the 2020 Orlando Bubble, Davis has played a mere 76 out of the 154 games conducted, with Hall of Famers like Charles Barkley coining nicknames like ‘street clothes’ for the former champion, and social media following suit, trolling AD regularly.

Davis’ low fitness levels come as a surprise, given having LeBron James as a teammate, who continues to inspire at 37 years of age. No matter what is said, the Lakers cannot contend for a championship without the full-time services of AD.

Also read: “I Got Anthony Davis Winning The MVP This Season”: Kendrick Perkins on The Brow Reigniting Comparisons with Giannis Antetokounmpo Recently, Davis admitted his ultimate goal for the upcoming season was health and playing all 82-games.

Anthony Davis reveals his only individual goal for the upcoming season. Despite their horrid performance last year, the Lakers are looking to run it back this season. While King James refuses to age, he does require AD by his side.

Newly appointed head coach Darvin Ham hopes to have Davis as the team’s no.1 offensive weapon. During a recent interview with Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, Davis reflected upon this, saying the following. “I’m so excited that I’ve got goosebumps just thinking about this year,” said the Lakers big man.

“I’m looking forward to a healthy year and doing what I know we can do.” “I went into this summer focusing on strengthening my body. I have to be on the court and at my best to put us in position to be our best. I’m ready to do that.” Davis has only one individual goal this year which is being able to play throughout.

Anthony Davis said he’s got one individual goal this year. “I just want to be on the floor. I want to be able to play all 82. And if I’m not, I don’t want it to be injury-based where I can’t play.

That’s my goal.” — Dan Woike (@DanWoikeSports) September 28, 2022 Nevertheless, only time will tell if Davis can sustain the strenuous 82-game schedule, given his history of injuries, as Lakers Nation wishes to see the eight-time All-Star at his Bubble best.

CINCINNATI -- When in doubt, throw it deep. One play after fans at Paycor Stadium were booing the Cincinnati Bengals' lack of offense, they erupted when quarterback Joe Burrow launched the ball to wide receiver Tee Higgins, who hauled in a 59-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter of Thursday's game against the Miami Dolphins.

Cincinnati was facing a third-and-11 and struggled to find an offensive rhythm after it scored a touchdown on its opening drive. Burrow had Higgins in a one-on-one matchup, and like he said he was going to earlier in the week, Burrow trusted his receiver and let it fly.

Even against a defender as good as Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard, it all worked in Cincinnati's favor. Higgins made the catch, broke out of Howard's grasp and finished the play in the end zone to give the Bengals a 14-6 lead.

CINCINNATI -- Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was taken to a local hospital with head and neck injuries suffered on a second-quarter sack in Thursday night's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Tagovailoa hit the back of his head on the ground when he was sacked by Bengals nose tackle Josh Tupou, and his arms appeared to seize up almost immediately.

He remained on the field for roughly 10 minutes before he was loaded onto a stretcher and taken away. The Dolphins said shortly before halftime that he was conscious and had movement in all his extremities at the hospital, the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

The entire Dolphins team gathered at midfield as he was taken off, and the crowd chanted, "Tua! Tua!" In Sunday's win over the Buffalo Bills, Tagovailoa underwent concussion evaluations at halftime after he hit his head on the ground and then stumbled while trying to return to the huddle.

The team initially listed him as questionable to return with a head injury but later said it was a back injury that caused him to stumble. Tagovailoa said later in the week that he passed every evaluation he took before ultimately returning to the game.

The NFL Players Association requested a review of the NFL's concussion protocols following Tagovailoa's quick return to the game. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that his players' health is something he doesn't take lightly, that the team would comply with any review or investigation and that he felt "fine" with whole process.

"The one thing I think our players know more than anybody, there's certain things that I'm very sensitive to. I've been called emotional from time to time, and one of those things is player health," McDaniel said.

"So I don't mess around with that at all. ... They went through the protocols and in that process during the game, and it was something that we wouldn't have moved forward in the direction we did, had there been any sort of red flags because that's -- you can't keep quarterbacks out of harm's way so you wouldn't -- if he had a head issue, he wouldn't have been back out there." Tagovailoa, 24, was listed as questionable with a back injury for most of the week ahead of Thursday night's game.

Before leaving the game, Tagovailoa was 8-for-14 for 100 yards and an interception.

Teddy Bridgewater entered in Tagovailoa's place; the Dolphins had rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson active for the first time in his career, as well. Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Coming off a first-round playoff elimination, the Minnesota Timberwolves made some significant changes to their roster in the recent off-season, acquiring three-time DPOY Rudy Gobert. President Tim Connelly and co were willing to part with a host of their draft picks and talents for this move.

The T-Wolves starting 5 includes multiple All-Star players, including Gobert, Karl-Anthony Towns, and D’Angelo Russell. Thus it’s evident that the front office doesn’t wish to waste any more time, focusing on winning now, which includes contending for the Larry O’Brien trophy.

In what it seems, the 21-year-old Anthony Edwards aims to follow suit too. The Ant-Man is one of the most promising talents in the league, with his style of play finding similarities with legend Michael Jordan. The Wolves guard can not only drive to the paint but shoot the ball as well.

Also read: While he may possess a skill set similar to that of MJ, he now looks to embody the discipline of the Bulls MVP. A big fan of fast food, Edwards has decided to give up on his biggest weakness for the upcoming season. Anyone, who’s watched Timberwolves’ post-game media interactions, is aware of Ant-Man’s obsession with fast food.

So much so that the 6ft 4′ couldn’t wait for the press conference to end to enjoy his meal. Anthony Edwards is comedy. Brought Popeye’s to his postgame media 😂 — Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) Anthony Edwards really ordered McDonald’s during his postgame presser 💀 — Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) However, this may not be the case anymore, with Edwards looking to get in better shape for the upcoming season.

The Wolves guard has been packing on muscle in the weight room, avoiding his burgers and fries on weekdays, which he plans to reduce to nil soon.

Anthony Edwards said he didn’t eat any fried foods Monday-Thursday this offseason — and said he’s not going to have any fried foods during the season.

I asked about Popeyes. He said not even Popeyes — and definitely won’t be ordering McDonalds at press conferences anymore. — Dane Moore (@DaneMooreNBA) The former Georgia player aims to work on the defensive end of his game, hoping to make the All-Defensive team this season.

Anthony Edwards on what putting on 10 pounds this summer will help with most: “For sure attacking the rim. It makes my three ball a lot easier. It makes everything a lot easier. Defense, people can’t just bully me no more. It makes me feel a lot better.” — Dane Moore (@DaneMooreNBA) Anthony Edwards said he will be guarding the best opposing offensive player the majority of the time this season — and because of that, Ant says he will be “salty” if he doesn’t make an All-Defense team this season.

— Dane Moore (@DaneMooreNBA) It’s ironic how despite having built a net worth of $14 million at 21 years old, Edwards cannot have his favorite food.

The Wolves guard understands he’s among men now, playing in the NBA, making his transition towards better discipline. One can only imagine how deadly Edwards would be if embodies the discipline of Air Jordan.

Shaquille O’Neal is one of the most successful men in sports, and it’s all thanks to the discipline he received from his stepfather! There are many players who have come to the NBA and absolutely dominated. The likes of Wilt Chamberlain, Michael Jordan, and LeBron James are the first to come to mind.

However, there was no one quite like Shaquille O’Neal. Diesel was an absolute monster who completely annihilated anyone who stood in his way, quite literally. That being said, Shaq himself admits he wasn’t very motivated growing up. Luckily, with the guidance of his stepfather he was able to reach heights he would have never been able to reach otherwise.

Four NBA Championships, an MVP, multiple All-Star and All-NBA team selections speak for itself. Yet, this wasn’t always the case for Shaq. The former No.1 overall pick had it tough growing up, especially with a stepfather who was a tough disciplinarian.

In fact, Shaq himself admits that his father would not spare the belt if he didn’t listen to him. However, he later realised that it was because he listened that he got to where he is today! Safe to say that The Big Aristotle is grateful for all the life lessons his father taught him growing up.

After all, it’s what has made him one of the greats.

Max Verstappen thinks Fernando Alonso would have won more than two titles if he had driven in other cars in which others won. Fernando Alonso was the driver who became the king of F1 after Michael Schumacher’s absolute dominance. In 2005 and 2006, the Spaniards won back-to-back championships.

At that time, Alonso was merely 26-year-old, and since then, he has been on the radar of the top teams. Despite performing for Ferrari and Mclaren after that, he never got to clinch a championship again. Speaking on that, Alonso talked about how similar his position was to Verstappen 16 years ago.

But luck never favoured him after that, and his stats have been similar. However, he adds that Verstappen is in a team for which things are only improving. Therefore it’s unlikely that the Dutchman will have the same fate as him. Responding to it, Verstappen was delighted to hear praise from the legendary F1 driver.

He also said that had Alonso been in cars which won championships after him, he would have had more titles in his kitty. “If you had put Fernando in the cars with which other people have won championships, he would have done the same,” said Alonso.

“But that’s not how F1 works.” “At the end of the day, he still won two titles so I think he’s done very well for himself. And he’s also a great guy and a great personality for F1.” Also read: $183 dollar Halo themed special Lando Norris helmet goes for sale ahead of Singapore GP Max Verstappen not aiming to clinch the title in Singapore With only six more races this season, F1 has already reached Singapore, where Verstappen can win under a possible blunder by Charles Leclerc.

Rather, he thinks his real shot at cementing himself as the 2022 champions is in Japan.

Even Red Bull chief Helmut Marko is looking forward to winning the title in Suzuka, as Honda, who were their partners from 2019 to 2021, are from Japan only. Red Bull still uses a Honda engine, even though the latter has left F1, because of the engine freeze.

Singapore GP has returned to the F1 calendar after two years with its eventful night race at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. After two years off the F1 calendar due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Singapore GP is set to make a return this weekend. History has shown that the night race at the Marina Bay Street Circuit always turns out to be eventful with its twisty track.

In 2008, the track also became home to one of the biggest scandals in the history of the sport known as the Crashgate. At the time, Fernando Alonso drove a Renault and his teammate Nelson Piquet Jr crashed deliberately which in turn beneffited the Spanish driver in his title run.

Returning to the F1 calendar, the track in Singapore has gone through multiple changes and has signed an extension of the contract to host the event until 2028. It’s about time for the #SingaporeGP to get back on track Some final preparations as we head into the long awaited race weekend tomorrow! #SingaporeGP #F1nightrace pic.twitter.com/IuisdtHA39 — SingaporeGP (@F1NightRace) September 29, 2022 Reports show that on an average the cost to host an F1 event an year is $150 Million.

But the Singapore government co-funds the 60% of the event with the remaining 40% inncurred by the airlines, hoteliers and others.

Taking up 60% of the cpst of hosting the event, the Singapore government spends $90 Million for organising the lights out at the Marina Bay Street Circuit.

Storming around the circuit for 61 laps, the drivers lose up to 5kgs in weight. Dehydration also threatens the drivers and they don’t want to drink in the cockpit as the water gets too hot. The drivers even begin their sauna training weeks before the Singapore GP.

Shaquille O’Neal couldn’t seem to remember Usain Bolt’s real name right before trying and failing to emulate his running form. Shaquille O’Neal was never truly a man of speed. His strong-suit while in the NBA for 19 years was his ability to brutally dominate in the post with a combination of sheer force of will and strength.

Sure, he did run the fast-break a couple times in a game on average but that never made him the fastest guy out on the court. Agility and finesse were essentially not part of what made Shaq as great as he was. His formative years in Orlando would beg to differ as the early to mid 1990s saw ‘The Big Aristotle’ play in a similar way to the way Giannis Antetokounmpo plays today.

Shaq has even compared himself to the 2x MVP, saying he does play in today’s game in the form of the ‘Greek Freak’. However, by the time Shaquille O’Neal had won his third championship, his days of going up and down the court at a respectable speed were over.

He claimed to have been over 345 pounds by the end of that title run in 2002. O’Neal wouldn’t need his speed back after that either way as he won his 4th title in his 14th season and would soon find his way to the Phoenix Suns via trade from the Miami Heat.

Shaquille O’Neal has always been a man of humor. He’s been the true definition of you would imagine when thinking of a ‘gentle giant’. So, when it came to practice, gags and laughs were expected to ensue as the day went on. In this particular moment with the Phoenix Suns in practice, Shaq hilariously proclaims that he’s Osain Bolton to Robin Lopez and the rest of teammates.

He would then go on to starting his conditioning drill where he most certainly looked like Osain Bolton because he was so far removed from looking like Usain Bolt.

Former Los Angeles Lakers superstar Shaquille O’Neal once attacked a drug dealer’s dog for tearing his new shoes. Shaquille O’Neal is known to be a kind man. His charity and big heart have become two defining aspects post-retirement. A man who champions the upliftment of all communities, O’Neal wasn’t always this way.

Once upon a time, Shaq was a cruel, mean man who bullied NBA players without any regard. His extraordinary size and strength made it easy for him to dominate almost every opponent. For O’Neal, his childhood wasn’t much different. He was huge even as a kid.

To top it off, O’Neal lived with his father who regularly trashed him. The beating over every trivial matter inculcated violence in Shaq. As a kid, his only redemption for the beating at home was trashing someone and anyone. Mostly, he took it out on students of his school.

Though a dark incident in school where a child went into an epileptic seizure stopped his violence, O’Neal had been in countless fights until then. In fact, he once even tried to kill a dog as a child. Also read: “We Couldn’t Stop Kobe Bryant or Shaquille O’Neal But Our Plan Was Thorough”: Chauncey Billups’ Pistons Were Confident About Beating The Lakers in 04 Shaquille O’Neal reacted violently to a dog tearing his shoes In his book Shaq Uncut, O’Neal narrated the story of Sam the dog in detail.

He revealed how the dog tore his newest Chuck Taylor converse shoes.

As a child, Shaq lived in Jersey City with his grandmother. Near his grandma’s house was a park and a drug dealer named Pee Wee lived on the other side of it. Every evening at 4:15, Pee Wee would let his German Shepherd out and the dog would chase the kids in the park.

So once, O’Neal’s dad bought him brand new all-white shoes. He then commanded O’Neal to make them last but Pee Wee’s dog tore them on the first day itself. Shaq wrote: “I go outside in my new Chuck Taylors and I’m strutting around and I’m feeling good.

I am The Man. But at 4:15 the screen door opens and that damn dog Sam starts coming right for me. I start running and I try to jump the fence, but I’m so big I’m having trouble scrambling up there. My feet are dangling and I’m trying to hoist myself over, but the dog gets the back of my shoe and rips it.

So I go home and tell my dad and he says, “I don’t want to hear that crap!” and he punches me.” He continued: “The next day I get myself a stick, and when Pee Wee’s dog comes out I try to break his neck. I’m so mad about the Chuck Taylors I’m trying to kill that dog Sam.

The dog runs back in the house and Pee Wee comes out acting real tough and I hit him with the stick, too. Next thing you know his three brothers come out and they beat the stuffing out of me. I am so messed up my father doesn’t even bother to whip me again.” Shaq boils it down to the basics for success “kids listen to your fathers “.

After thanking his Dad Sergeant Phillip Harrison.#ShaqRealTalk — MarkJonesESPN (@MarkJonesESPN) April 3, 2013 Luckily kid Shaquille O’Neal did not harm the dog.

Unluckily he was beaten up by his father and then the dog’s drug dealer owner. To be fair, we can understand how O’Neal must have felt. As if he was not just wronged by the dog but as if he was unfairly punished for the shoes too. And it was hardly Shaq’s fault.

He was innocent throughout. Do you think Shaq’s father was too cruel toward him?
