I'm known as The Big Baryshnikov.

I'm the NBA's best NFL player, and I've always been the sexiest 7-footer in the NBA - for 12 years running.

If you go around the league, anybody with the last name 'vich' is a great shooter. Radmanovic, Vujacic... all those 'iches.

I'm dominant every night. I come in every night and get beat up. I never make a face when they try to flagrant or hack-a-Shaq me, because I'm not from this planet. Earthlings don't faze me.

I'm sort of like a specialist. I go in, do what I do and every four years, they get tired of me and I have to relocate myself.

Me and Penny are going to be the Kareem and Magic of the '90s.

As a basketball fan, I get sick and tired of people talking about numbers. To me, the world is getting too materialistic.
