With the start of the regular season less than a week away, Shaquille O'Neal still hasn't learned Cleveland's entire playbook.
"It is vital that I start to memorize the plays," O'Neal told the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "I've been used to a certain system for 17 years so I have to work on that. I still have a few days before we start."
The Cavaliers are hoping that O'Neal can step away from the hoop quite a bit this season to set screens and clear the lane for LeBron James and others.
"We're trying to put him in different spots on the floor to get him moved around so people can't home in on him," Cavaliers coach Mike Brown said. "That's what we're going to continue to try to do."
1) Yeah, let's put Shaq farther away from the hoop more often. Fantastic idea.
2) Cleveland has a playbook??!

Judging by the amount of responses this thread has gotten, I imagine this should have just gone in the NBA discussion thread.

On First Take, they just said that Cleveland now feels they have a "Big 3".
WhoTF is this 3rd player that would make up this "Big 3"?
