Former NBA star Doug Christie recently spoke about Shaquille O'Neal purchasing a minority share of the Sacramento Kings.  Christie was a member of the Kings for five years (2000-05) and battled the then Shaq led Lakers in many memorable games.  

"It's awkward because he beat the shit out of us so much," Christie said. "But at the same time, it's a game. I understand it, and then at the end of the day, it's a business. He's [O'Neal] a business man and it would be crazy for him to be the one to help facilitate a championship. How awkward is that? Wow."

"I love Shaq, I've always loved how he's able to play with that edge, but entertain and have a good time at the same time.....I'm excited for the organization because Shaq has so much knowledge about how to build a winner and how to sustain it, the way that you need to conduct yourself. Obviously, he's been through all the battles with us so it's a good synergy that I think ultimately will work."
