As a guest on the “Rex Chapman show”, Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal has given his thought on today’s NBA salaries, saying he is “jealous” of these salaries, but he’s happy for the players.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m jealous, but I\u2019m happy [for them],\u201d Shaq said. \u201cI\u2019m jealous because I always thought that you had to have Michael-Jordan, superb-type numbers to get that type of money. That\u2019s what it was in my era, but I\u2019m happy for the kids. The reason why I bring up Rudy Gobert, people think I\u2019m hating, it\u2019s not. He\u2019s a good big man, but I\u2019m used to dealing with great big men. (…) Rudy Gobert is not the average-type, big-guy NBA player anymore. The average big they\u2019re looking for now is a guy that can pick-and-pop and do whatever. Rudy Gobert is big, tall, plays hard, plays great defense, a Defensive Player of the Year, and he\u2019s making $200 million. So, all you big guys out there, look at him. Follow him. You\u2019re not going to be LeBron, you\u2019re not going to be Kobe, you\u2019re not going to be Shaq, you\u2019re not going to be Garnett, but I think there\u2019s a lot of big guys even today that can do the things that he can do. When I tell the story, people think, \u2018Oh you\u2019re just jealous!\u2019 Yeah, I am<\/em>\u00a0jealous that he\u2019s making $250 [million]. Yeah, I\u2019ll say I\u2019m jealous. However, for this game of ours, it can motivate a young kid today\u2026 All these guys that are watching, this is what motivates them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
