Dan Patrick: Hi, brother, how are you?

Shaquille O'Neal: I'm good, brother, trying to be like you when I grow up.

DP: What do you want to be when you grow up, by the way?

SO: Wouldn't mind being a president or general manager.

DP: What kind of boss do you think you'd make?

SO: I'd be a macromanager rather than a micromanager. I would let people do their jobs without busting too many chops.

DP: You came up with the Big Shogun. What do you think of the nickname I came up with for you in Arizona: the Big Shactus?

SO: That was nice. That was nice.

DP: What do you do better now than, say, 10 years ago?
