I thought this was really cool and says a lot of what an all-time great thinks of Blake.

"Every now and then you get that special case," O'Neal told SI.com. "Kobe was that special case, [Kevin] Garnett was that special case, and LeBron James ..."

Here he pauses, like an emcee introducing a surprise guest to the stage.

"And now I actually think this guy Blake Griffin is a special case," said O'Neal. "He plays the game like a big man should play -- hard-nosed, tough. I really like his game.

"My (10 year old) son is starting to play now, and I don't like to let him watch players that are really, really fancy. Of course, I'll let him watch Kobe, LeBron, T-Mac (Tracy McGrady). But I show him Blake Griffin and I say, 'Shareef, this is the dude you should watch and pattern your game after.' Because my son, when he's older, I think he's going to have the same body type -- 6-10, muscular, freakish athletically."

Somewhere, Dwight Howard is crying.

And yes, yermom - "damn" comes to mind when reading this.

Yeah, I understand the Sooner Spectator pimping their issues, but Blake is no longer College POY - he's a pro now. Time to unstickify.

Give me a second...

OK, fixed. I'm not moving the one about Wayman.

Yeah, this needs an image of the Soonermen holding up that "DANG!" sign.

Shaq is a pretty cool dude.

Moments later, Shaq referenced Erica Dampier and said, "Don't pattern your game after this moron, OK, Shareef?"
