Q: W ho 's the league s MVP this year, including yourself if you feel you desers e it. O'Neal: 1 donTknow T think the player whose team wins the championship should be the MVP. 1 think there are a lot of guys who are having a good sear. I think 1 m having a good year. But. I don t know how they are going to look at it. If they look at stats, then maybe I should get it. but if thes look at (NBA experience) 1 probabls wont get it. maybe 1 haven t paid ms dues yet: whatever that may mean, but 1 will write a check for my dues if they want me tcx> (laughs). *> Q: What about the so-called animosity between the NBA s top centers, particular!) between sour self and David Robinson. Is' it g<n>d for the league? O'Neal: 1 think it's kind of good because it causes controversy and people like to see controversy . "Dave was talking about Shaq and Shaq was talking about Dave." so next time they will subscribe the game to see what will happen. Q: Was acting an awkward experience0 O'Neal: No. Before acting 1 was experienced at being behind the camera. I had already did two rap videos and seven commercials. So 1 just wanted to go and do the best that I could do. I didn't want to come out as a flop. 0 : Making the album must have been fun, because it's right in your personal comfort zone. O'Neal: when 1 was little, I* wanted to be like Run-DMC and Dr J. so when the.> came to me with the deal. 1 jus; took advantage of it. 1 think 1 did a pretty good job. cause it went platinum. Q: Did you consciously write .and record songs that had mspira tional and solid messages0 ? , O'-XeaU-Nuureallx- lJ&:a!>aii*L writing about me and the things I do. i! people think it is positive, then it probably is a tribute to my parents, and it came out like. thai. 1 lik-e to think 1 m a music expert. 1 know what people want to hear. The\ - the audience I'm after ?? * like good beats. It you got a nice beat that makes a person s head like this "(O Seal begins- nodding his head i. then it s all good. Q: Do \ou consider yourself a role model? ? O'Neal: There are man\ defin itions of a role model. W hen I was growing up. a role model was a per son \ou could talk to about the birds and the bees and troubles, and that persorf uas m> father. Now we as athletes can get on television and sa\ . "Don't use drugs' but if some one comes \o your son and say do drugs, he can't call me up and ask me to db something about it. But 1 can relate to having kids maybe wanting to be like me. I have a little brother and two little sisters. The best thing athletes can do is sta\ out of trouble. Don't go out and get drunk and doing crack and that kind of stuff. I'm being myseif and having tun. but I'm going to stay out of trouble. The reason I can relate to being a role model is I have my lit tle brother and sisters looking at me; I don't want to be a failure in their eyes.
