Phoenix center Shaquille O'Neal doesn't have any ill towards Miami, as he prepares to do battle with his former team on Friday night.
"I don't really have any bad feelings," O'Neal said. "I love all those guys down there."
O'Neal claims that harsh comments attributed to him toward team president Pat Riley, the team's medical staff, and even supporting players were all fabrications.
"I understand that business had to be taken care of for him to rebuild and rebuild around D-Wade, and that's the perfect guy to rebuild around," he said. "I understand that. I've been a businessman my whole career."
O'Neal did, however, admit that he hasn't spoken with Riley since the Heat traded him to the Suns last season.
