Miami Heat: Shaq and LeBron James go for each other’s heads, literally
The Miami Heat can work magic when it comes to getting the most out of their players. That doesn’t mean that they “help them grow” in all areas though.
The Miami Heat can make something out of nothing, the most out of minimal, and a whole host of other amazing things happen, but there is something that they can’t do. One of those things is “grow hair”, or at least help their players grow it.
The bald thing or going bald thing isn’t just a feat reserved for NBA players though. If you take a look around other leagues, it’s pretty common there as well.
Looking at the world of professional golf, there are two of the most popular golfers on tour that see minimal green when looking at the putting surface that is their heads and hairlines. Jordan Spieth has seemingly been going bald since he first hopped on the national scene.
The world’s greatest golfer ever, Tiger Woods, has increasingly been more hesitant in recent years to do his patented hat removal–forehead swipe for sweat. This is likely because it would reveal the wispy black strands that are the remainder of his head of hair.
The NFL world is not safe either. Four words do the trick here. They are “Brian Urlacher’s hair plugs”.
With that in mind and to bring it back around to the Miami Heat though, two of their former players were recently at each other’s heads about this very topic. All-time greats, LeBron James and Shaquille O’Neal, were back and forth on social media about their hair.
Specifically, Shaq was interesting in knowing where all of his went. LeBron answered. Here it is, from the Instagram page of The Diesel himself.
Well played Shaq, well played. Known for being able to make fun of themselves, the two Miami Heat champions and all-time NBA greats definitely know how to make fun of each other.
This is on par for the course with these two guys though. Not only has it been evident since, that they have been pretty good friends since at least Shaq’s cup of coffee with LeBron’s Cavaliers during his first stint there, but it appears that they remain as close now.
You have to love being able to see two of the biggest personalities ever, not only in sports but ever, joke with each other. The only other thing that would be a better form of entertainment is when live Miami Heat basketball returns.
