Who's the Real Superman? 

Post#1 » by tlloyd34 » Mon Mar 9, 2009 10:13 pm

Don't know if this has been posted, but I thought it was a funny video. They are asking a bunch of All-Stars and celebrities who the real Superman is, Dwight or Shaq.

Who's the Real Superman?

Thought it was interesting at the end where Dwight gives Shaq props and says they both like to have fun and give back, but then Shaq says something about players trying to be like their idols and will never be as good as him.

Enjoy!

Phil Jackson put it best.

But the whole idea is dumb.

Can you imagine somebody whining at work about being superman first? Shaq is that person. Loser.

Gosh I hate Bill Lambier.. .what a douche... Dwight isn't even necessarily "in his prime" yet.
Anyways, I don't understand why they argue so much about It, Dwight doesn't say anything about it

Exactly. Shaq can't accept that his time is coming to an end and there is a young superstar with a career of greatness ahead of him to take his place.

Add to that, and someone please correct me, but I don't remember Shaq ever actually being nicknamed Superman. Yes he had the tattoo, and he was obviously referred to as 'Man of Steel' for quite some time, but Superman? I really can't remember that.

i know exactly what I was thinking how do you know who is better in their prime when one of them hasn't even hit their prime.

I think that the whole thing is kind of dumb though I think that Dwight should just go out and get more rings than Shaq. (All with the magic too)

Shaq is known more as the Big Diesel than Superman

True.

But he STOLE that name from the original "diesel", John Riggans of the Washington Redskins. The stadium was filled with air horns every time he carried the ball.

So, Shaq's bark is really just a whine and hypocritical in nature..........
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability
