Shaq, say hello to Cleveland

The rumors surrounding Shaquille O'Neal teaming up with LeBron James will soon be over as negotiation is underway.

Cleveland fans rejoice as the Big Aristotle will bring strength to the Cavs' inside game. Both Ben Wallace and Sasha Pavlovic will be sporting Phoenix Suns jerseys.

The Cavs, who led the league with a stellar 66-16 record in the regular season, are still fresh off a bitter ending in the 2009 NBA Playoffs.

League MVP LeBron James was spectacular all year and even elevated his game in the post season. James averaged 35.3 points, 9.1 rebounds, 7.3 assists in the playoffs and was a huge presence for the Cavs on both ends. His teammates were overmatched late in the playoffs versus the Orlando Magic, especially the big men who weren't even half productive as Dwight Howard.

How great is this development for Cavs/Lebron fans? I recently talked about how I love Shaq and LeBron, check out this article Kobe Bryant, A Big Time Player. Now they'll be playing together!

With the entry of Shaq, how greatly will it impact the Cavs' championship chances? We'll find out.
