Shaq on Dwight Howard: "I Don't Like People Who Lack Originality"

Dwight Howard and I don’t really have a relationship. I don’t like people who lack originality. The whole Superman thing doesn’t work for me. … It’s kind of weird how he’s handled his career. He wants to be Superman. They’re talking about him going to L.A. when his contract is up. When I go back to the Orlando area in the offseason, they are doing all the same things for him they did for me. But that’s a mistake. He’s Dwight Howard. He’s not Shaq. Be your own man. Create your own brand.
 
If thats what he wants to do or if thats what they want him to do, so! Shaq just talkn, but i understand the whole superman thing.. i would have never done no shit like that.. that is straight copy cat, but following ur career as someone else's well to me that aint a bad thing.. look where it got shaq... It has done very well for him!

Whos career has Shaq followed?
 
When dude put the superman outfit on at the dunk contest, he was copying superman, not shaq. Who the hell thinks about shaq when they see the superman sign? Not anybody I know.
 
Shaq is going at Dwight because it's true.

Dwight is trying to build a brand.

Look at what he did this summer.

He went on a world tour. He has a cartoon coming out that he has been promoting.

Dwight is building an all girl school in Africa

Dwight has said he wants to go to a big market because there is more opportunities.

Shaq hit it right on the head. Dwight is trying to build a brand and the way he went about it at first was not original.

Now you see Dwight want to do movies, cartoons, commercials and so much. That it has stopped being about basketball.

it's about the Dwight Howard Brand.

Which leads me to believe Dwight isn't interested in Lakers because he would once again be in Shaq's shadow.
 
and people wanna kno why i neva like shaq:rolleyes: dis guy is da biggest attention whore ever nigga always jump ship and throw his team under the bus whenever his spotlite is threatened... nigga said superman ha how could u call urself superhuman when u can't even hit free-throws
 
shaq is correct
shaq did all the shit before dwight and he was panned for it and scolded for it
he had the superman theme
he rapped
he did movies
critics said he should be trying to win a ring instead of doing all that shit
which is what the critics should be saying about dwight presently

:yes::yes:

seriously Imagine if Lebron was doing cartoons. Going on world tours after he was knocked out the playoffs to enhance his brand.

People would be killing Lebron in the media. Saying he is more focus on movies and fame than winning
 
Shaq is talking shit, but he is correct

Dwight copied that Superman shit, now him going to the Lakers is on the same path

I'm not mad at him though, Shaq got three rings out of it in la LOL

Sports fan forget how ground breaking it was for a big center tone personable, fast, and a beast all at the same time

To bad shaq never learned how to rebound LOL

Still top 5 center all time , Dwight is not even in that discussion
 
:yes::yes:

Whoa, where was I when 'Bron got this pass from the media? LeBron didn't have to do any of that to get killed in the media. You guys are acting like Shaq invented Superman and was the first NBA'er to do movies. How can you guys acknowledge Shaq's truth, but not his bitterness?

dwight just gets a pass i guess
either its sympathy because they don't feel he has to the right team with him

OR

its because they don't expect greatness from him which is why he isn't held to the same standard that lebron is, that rose will be held to in a few years if he doesn't win, if kd will be held to in a few years if he doesn't win, the same shit melo and amare will be held to if they don't win and win soon.
maybe they just feel he's doing as good as he can so he gets a pass for it

shaq won 4 times and people feel he should have won 8
dwight hasn't won 1 time and nobody is really tripping

shaq is speaking truth
and he is bitter

shaq is seeing someone make their name as him

while he's still here.
 
shaq had a red blazer with a superman logo in the grill way back when he was at LSU,,, i was in louisiana at the time, so i kinda feel what he is saying

he didnt create superman. its not mutually exclusive to shaq
 
Shaq has a problem with it the same way Kenny Smith has a problem with Jason Terry taking on the "Jet" nickname. It's not that hard to come up with your own shit. Or, even if the media started calling Dwight Superman, he didn't have to run with the shit like he did. If that was me, I would've distanced myself from that nickname simply because I'm playing in the same place, same position as someone who ad that nickname first. Lacking originality is a problem all across the board in music, movies or anything else really :dunno:

Seriously though, whoever referred to shaq as superman other than himself?

Um, Jason Terry's initials are J.E.T.

THIS! Shaq is a big, extremely big, kid....with a lot of fuckin' money. This nigga beefin' about a symbol/brand that was created 50 years ago. Shaq is the one puttin' Superman on everything he owns! Shaq sounds simple for even talkin' about this subject to the media.
 
I have to agree with Shaq... PLUS... Let's be real... What does Shaq have to be bitter about???:dunno:... What does D. Howard on Shaq???:dunno:... BUT I will say this... I think their fiction is more media driven anything else... BUt Shaq is right... Be original... :yes:
 
Superman was introduced with a cape....it was to give more effect on him soaring through the air.

Superman has been used in the college dunk contest before.
 
shaq is beginning to sound like a bitter old man that lost his factory job to a younger worker

:yes::yes:That was my first thought....

Some people just don't know how to 'go quietly into the night'.

He brought his big fake ass to Boston and all he did was run his mouth.
 
Christopher Reeve is Superman not Shaq...hopefully somebody come out with a book on him......How he never plays a full season, but makes it back in time for the playoffs.
