I'm going back to the old Shaq. I was normal last year - I was an earthling last summer. I had to go back to my alien roots.

Our offense is like the pythagorean theorem: There is no answer!

I think Bush came back because Colin Powell was there. Hey, I'm the brigadier general, baby.

I'll take 14 out of 15 any day of the week, any week of the month, any month of the year, any year of the century. I don't know what comes after century.

Flash, take the game off. I'll go out and do the work.

I had orders from the great Bill Russell. Me and him were talking in Seattle the other day, and he was telling me how rivalries should be. I asked him if he ever disliked anybody he played against, and he told me, 'No, never,' and he told me that I should shake Kobe Bryant's hand and let bygones be bygones and bury the hatchet.

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.
