In the history of the NBA, has there ever been a better quote?
“The difference between those three is the Godfather trilogy,” O’Neal said in classic Shaq-speak. “One is Fredo, who was never ready for me to hand it over to him. One is Sonny, who will do whatever it takes to be the man, and one is Michael, who if you watch the trilogy, the Godfather hands it over to Michael. So I have no problem handing it over to Dwyane.”
Shaq was obviously referring to his relationship with Penny, Kobe and D-Wade. The analogy is so good, so on point, that I am kinda jealous that I never thought of it. And yes, I know, Bill Simmons wrote about this quote already here. Doesnt matter. Its still great.
What are you some of your favorite shaq quotes?

my favorite is when shaq says the refs try to come in a take over the fucking game. The announcer replies with Shaq we’re on live, and shaq replies I dont give a shit.

Shaq, referring to Dennis Rodman:
“If he were on fire, he couldn’t act as if he were burning. He can’t out-act me on the big screen.”
