Well out here in Laker land the story got a bit more coverage and truth is he 
really was held out from going by the teams physician. Shaq had every 
intention of going even had his mom all set up to go in to Cleveland. You 
don't fly your mom to Cleveland unless you intend to show. Whatever you might 
think of Shaq it is true he loves the attention and being a part of the 
ceremony would have fit the bill.
