Luckily, just like all "Kings," LeBron also liked being flattered.
Shaquille O'Neal seized every opportunity to heap praise on him, which indeed eased his demeanor.
It seemed that as long as the Cavaliers kept dominating, there wouldn't be a complete fallout between him and LeBron over the minor dispute of pick and rolls.
However, even though his relationship with LeBron had eased again, Shaquille O'Neal never let his guard down and took every chance to praise, especially when the "Player of the Month" wasn't LeBron this time.
Even though he knew Su Wan truly deserved it, he still claimed Su "wasn't qualified," and that the real "Player of the Month" was someone else.
After all, his relationship with Su Wan wasn't going to get any better.
This wave of dissing, whether from the angle of mocking Su Wan or praising LeBron, was definitely something that would please LeBron.
Pacifying a child, that was his specialty!
As a result, it was Barkley who ended up feeling frustrated.
