I can't vouch for the veracity of the supposed Twitter feed of Shaquille O'Neal. It seems like it's real -- there are repeated references to sponsorship by Vitamin Water, of which Shaq is an endorser and shareholder. (Need a reminder?) As Nate Jones relayed, O'Neal tore up Milwaukee last night, taking full advantage of Friday's rest. Apparently, the alleged Shaq didn't think too terribly highly of Bucks center Andrew Bogut. Here's a, um, tweet from late last night (via BSoS):
On the plane back to #PHX, another Suns W. Bogut is Erika Dampier with a beard.
Oh snap! Erika Dampier is, of course, Shaq's long-lived nickname for Dallas hacker Erick Dampier, a wall of a man good for blocking a few shots and giving a few hard fouls. Shaq's had "battles" with Damp as a Laker, a Hot (singular of Heat?) and now as a Sun. And no, Shaq isn't a fan.

The rest of the Shaq Twitter feed is similarly hilarious; let us pray it's legit. For instance:
Our offense is like the Pythagorean Theorem. There is no answer. Or: Guys know if they need an instant bucket, they can come to me. As the son of Jor-El, it's in my nature to help others and save the universe. Shaq is America, people.
