Shaquille O'Neal: "I Take Pride In Being The Last Guy To Beat Michael Jordan In A Playoff Situation."

"I take pride in being the last guy to beat Michael Jordan in a playoff situation. Everybody is going to say that he came back from baseball, but my thing is that if you step on that court and I know he has the same mentality if you are on that court, that means you are ready to go. The next year they came back, demolished us, and made sure we didn't win a game. I'm sure he was rusty when he came back, but he didn't suck."

"We definitely could have got one. The thing in Orlando was that when you are young and silly, you chase useless titles. When I got there, I was the man, but when Penny got there, he thought he was the man. We were fighting over bullshit and useless titles that didn't make sense. The year before I left, Penny sat out because he wanted to get more money which is fine with me. I know if you get 100 million, and no disrespect to you, but I have to get 150 million. They gave it to him, but when it was time for me to get my money, they disappeared."
