The Cleveland Cavaliers brought in Shaquille O’Neal to battle Orlando’s Dwight Howard and eventually the Lakers’ Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum. They forgot about having to get past the Boston Celtics. Kendrick Perkins isn’t thought of as an elite center but he held his own against Shaq with his play and with his mouth. The two big men pushed and shoved for six games and even had a pro wrestling moment. Shaq belly-flopped onto Perkins and pinned him to the court. It was the only positive moment for Cleveland in their Game 6 loss to Boston.
