Not really funny, because being a Shogun has no real bearing on being a Ninja. You don't start off a a Ninja and strive to become Shogun.
So what did Shaq think of Oden? "I don't. I'm a Shogun. You can't ask me about a low level ninja. I still have to worry about Yao Ming, Dwight Howard."
LOL.. Reminds me of when he said Chris Bosh was the Rupaul of Big men"

I don't even think Shaq knows what a shogun is.
Why would he mention Dwight Howard, who is a wasted draft pick???
Shogun would destroy Shaq in a street fight...
anyone hear the Shaq imitation by Dwight Howard? It was pretty good. They just replayed it on Rome.
Shaq's right. I don't think this can be called dissing. Oden is a 2nd year backup who doesn't even average a double/double, is rarely healthy and is even slower than Shaq on the floor. Why should a future HoFer like Shaq be worried about such an insignificant player?
Someone forgot to log off
lmao was that the one when he played the Howard Dean and that Yankees lady clip right after it? The Jungle is hilarious.
The Jungle is definitely the best show on Radio.
It was perfect. He captured him perfectly. He also did Arnold pretty good sounded just like him.
Shaq was put on the top 50 all time players list way before he deserved it based on hype and name recognition. At least shoguns and ninjas are both Japanese.
so no one disagrees that oden is a lower level ninja?
Not as good as this though!
129-109
Shaq is hilarious
Not as good as this though!
Great. Thanks!!!
Why do you know this?
A better question is why doesn't Shaq just STFU. His place in NBA history is secure. However, he's now deteriorated to a point where he has to take pot shots at opposing players, on his way out the door. THis is a guy who sees that the end is near and is clearly trying to keep himself relevant with his mouth, rather than his game.
His schtick has grown tiresome and he's not funny to me. Personally, I can't wait for him to go away. Of course, I'm sure he'll wind up on someone's network, so I'll probably never be totally rid of his fat ass.
I kind of vacillate between being extremely annoyed by Shaq and laughing a bit, but my best guess is that personally, I'll tepidly miss him when he's gone.
Just to fill it in, Shaq spoke on several of the league's big men.
Shaquille O'Neal: Critically Massive
by Geoffrey C. Arnold
Shaquille O'Neal's career has been rejuvenated since he arrived in Phoenix last season.
The 37-year-old center's scoring and minutes averages -- 18.2 points and 30.2 minutes per game -- are his best in five seasons. Though the Suns could miss the playoffs, O'Neal has produced a solid season and was named to the All-Star team for the 15th time in his 17 NBA seasons.
With his four NBA les, an MVP award and three NBA Finals MVP awards, O'Neal still considers himself the gold standard among current NBA centers.
"I'm the CEO of centers in this league," O'Neal said. "I'm the shogun and the rest of the guys must go through the ninjas before they get to me."
O'Neal says he gets motivated when playing against the so-called "next dominant big man." Few would be surprised if he produces an outstanding game against Blazers rookie center Greg Oden or starting center Joel Przybilla -- whom he has had a few heated encounters over the years -- in tonight's game at the Rose Garden.
When it comes to rating NBA big men, O'Neal has his own share of opinions. Here's what he had to say:
Greg Oden, Portland -- "Young guy, who looks pretty athletic. He's just have to get a go-to move, a shot he can rely on. Give him some time and he should be a great center."
Yao Ming, Houston -- "I don't think there is anybody like Yao, someone who can take over a game and change the game. Yao is a great center. With his height and his ability, he can shoot the jumper or post-up."
Tim Duncan, San Antonio -- "Tim Duncan and I share the same responsibilities, but Tim is one of those quiet owners who doesn't talk a lot. He's got four (championships) and I've got four."
Dwight Howard, Orlando -- "He's a highly respected center. I haven't really seen him back people down like (Patrick) Ewing used to do or (Kevin) Duckworth or I used to do it. He catches lobs and rebounds. He just does what he's supposed to do."
Andrew Bynum, Los Angeles Lakers -- "A big guy and he plays above the rim. He does what he's supposed to do."
Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Cleveland -- "He has a lot of moves in the post. If he didn't have so many foot problems, he would have displayed those moves long before now. He can step out and shoot, post up. Great team player, great touch around the basket."
Ben Wallace, Cleveland -- "He has always been an undersized center. He'll never back down, no matter how many times you hit him. He's going to still come at you, still rebound and still fight."
Brad Miller, Sacramento -- "An undersized, but respectable center. He's more like a Tim Duncan-type forward. He can step out and shoot the jumper. He will foul you hard and will not back down."

You know what was funny? The other night when Shaq and Okur were greeting each other before tip off, Shaq leaned in an kissed him euro style on both cheeks. I don't know if he traditionally does that with euro centers, but
I knew Shaq was SpursDynasty.
That first impersonation was horrible, the second is pretty good.
