Boston Celtics would like to send Shaq in this Miami mansion early
Posted on | May 4, 2010 |
Second round of the 2010 NBA playoffs is ongoing. It’s Lakers vs Jazz, Spurs vs Suns in the west. And in the East, it’s Celtics vs Cavs and Magic vs Hawks.
Boston Celtics won today to tie the series at 1-1. It’s a best of seven affair. Did you know that though Cleveland is heavily favored to win the series, the Celtics were leading most of the way in game 1? Had Paul Pierce played better (only 13 points on 17 shots) in game 1, it could have been Boston up 2 and 0 + homecourt games.
If ever the Boston Celtics do accomplish the improbable, that is beating the Cleveland Cavaliers in round 2 of the playoffs, Shaquille O’Neal will have his early summer vacation and likely, he’ll plane up and rest in his Miami mansion on Star Island.
“It has eight bedrooms, an indoor basketball court, gym, steam room and sauna. The 2.5 acre grounds include a tennis court, six-car garage, dock, two-bedroom guest house and Shaq’s pool complete with Superman logo.” It’s valued at 20 to 25 million dollars. Roughly, a year’s pay for Shaq during his peak years.
(Just in case the Cavs get by Celtics and the Magic, they will be eliminated by the Lakers — Shaq’s old team — come NBA finals anyway! Lakers FTW!)
