PHOENIX, Arizona: Phoenix center Shaquille O'Neal scored 33 points against his former team as the Suns turned back the Los Angeles Lakers 118-111 on Sunday, despite 49 points from Kobe Bryant.
O'Neal, who once teamed with Bryant to lead the Lakers to three successive NBA championships, backed up a 45-point performance against Toronto on Friday for his first consecutive 30-point games since 2004.
"It's what I do," 36-year-old O'Neal told reporters. "I've been doing it since 1992. The only time I don't play well is when I'm injured."
