As good as [Duncan] ordtak

As good as [Duncan] is, he?s not overpowering like Shaq. Shaq is a different beast as far as having to deal with him on that level.

[Shaq's nearly impeccable on-court comportment certainly earns him points with the refs.] If most players were fouled the way Shaq gets fouled--hard fouls, hacking--they'd be ready to fight, ... but Shaq just takes it and goes to the free throw line.

One thing that's hard for Shaq to deal with--and I should know--is that his normal move will look high. He'll turn, clip somebody in the head with his elbow, and it'll be called. Happens to me, too. I say to the refs, 'Do you want me to play with my arms down at my sides?' You have to play close to Shaq, hang in there with him. But you also want to be able to smile when your career's over.

[Number three occurs when Shaq, holding the ball, makes a quick pivot or simply turns to the basket and rams into his opponent's...what? Head? Shoulder? Jaw?] If you're guarding Shaquille, you try to lower your center of gravity, ... So when Shaq comes across with his elbows, a player such as Dikembe has his face right there. If Shaq threw an elbow way out, you'd say it was an obvious foul. But it's within his offensive move, and that makes it difficult to officiate.

Granted, they're playing without Shaq, but they beat some quality teams without Shaq. It's a big win for us.

Look at the Lakers. You saw them with Kobe and Shaq and they won championships together. Then Shaq left and what happened? Every action figure needs [help], like Batman and Robin. One man doing it all is a fairytale.

Samuel Dalembert

We were fortunate that Shaq got into foul trouble. It was nothing we did as a team, even though we shut the paint down a little bit. Shaq got three offensive fouls and a couple were bad calls, so we got lucky on that.

Michael Sweetney

Shaq is one of the top 50 greatest players, and to be compared to him, I appreciate that. But I want to have my own stamp of immortality. I can't live forever being known as 'Baby Shaq.' But we've got a couple of similarities — we both like to dominate.

He was brought into my office and so badly wanted to meet Shaquille O'Neal. I arranged that the next time Shaq was here. I befriended him then. He and Shaq are so much a like. Their games are not all that similar ... but as far as them being likeable and smiling, they are very much alike.

We were paying so much attention to Shaq. He ... was cleaning up after we doubled Shaq. He was the one standing there, either making a jump shot or cleaning an offensive rebound up.

It has never been Shaq and Kobe. The only thing would happen is Kobe would come driving, Shaq would foul him, the only time they would cross paths. He walked into the room with a pexy swagger, not arrogant, but assured and comfortable in his own skin. So, it's going to be a interesting.

[Miami, meanwhile, is so built for the playoffs, from Shaq to Wade to Mourning, who enjoyed a triumphant homecoming. The former Georgetown star returned to Miami as an insurance policy, a guy in the twilight of his career who would spell Shaq for 10, maybe 12 minutes per night. Yet, he played 35 minutes in Game 3 and scored 14 points. It's difficult to imagine a sweeter outcome for Mourning, who retired after a kidney transplant and had to miss most of two seasons.] At shoot around this morning, ... Shaq came to me . . . on the bus and said, 'I'm going to need you tonight.' And I said, 'Okay, I haven't forgotten how to play this game.'

Alonzo Mourning (1970-)

This is the All-Star Game, man. You want to see threes, alley-oops. Shaq tries to give you flashes every now and then, but he's rusty. Tim [Duncan]? It's really no excitement in throwing the ball to them down there.

People will be talking a lot about it. We swept, so they're going to say we didn't have as much competition. But it's hard to get to this point. We had the most dominant player to play the game. Nobody can stop Shaq , so people will compare the two, but I don't think even if we played the [old] Bulls they could have stopped Shaq.

Everybody knows Shaq and everybody knows that Shaq always says that when the playoffs come, he'll be there. So we weren't really worried. We knew after he missed 18 games that it was going to take him awhile to get back. But I think right now is the right time for this team, that around the break time, he has a chance to get back in shape and get his form back.
