"I play against a front and a back every night, Ming does not have to do that, Duncan does not have to do that, Garnett doesn't do that. I am the only one that has to do that"
- Shaquille O'Neal
About this Quote
In the context of basketball, Shaquille O'Neal is referring to the reality that he needs to play against both a front defender as well as a back defender every game, while various other star players like Yao Ming, Tim Duncan, as well as Kevin Garnett might only need to bet one defender at once. O'Neal feels that this makes his task harder and also one-of-a-kind contrasted to other gamers.
"It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them"
