"Shaquille O'Neal's inflamed Achilles is still sore and he won't play for the rest of the West road trip against Golden State, Denver, L.A. Clippers and Utah.
"It takes time; just a healing issue," head coach Doc Rivers told the Boston Herald. "He's feeling a lot better. He's moving better. I wouldn't be surprised to see him right when we come off this trip. I would be surprised to see him while we're on this trip (ESPN)."
We haven't seen Shaq on the court since Feb. 1 against Sacramento, and it is starting to worry me that he isn't going to be able to hold it together. Then again, the Celtics know the regular season isn't nearly as important as having a healthy team for the playoffs. I can't wait to have him back on the court, because the Celtics are a little thin upfront with Jermaine O'Neal taking the year off, but if Shaq can make it back they will have an impressive big men with Big Baby, Shaq, Perkins, and Garnett.
