    There appears to be room for only one Superman in Los Angeles.

    Lakers center Dwight Howard called out Shaquille O'Neal on Thursday, responding to the former Lakers star and TNT analyst's comments that both the Philadelphia 76ers' Andrew Bynum and the Brooklyn Nets' Brook Lopez are the best true big men in the game today.

    "I don't care what Shaq says," Howard told reporters after practice. "Shaq played the game. He's done. He's gone. It's time to move on."

    Speaking in a roundtable discussion with fellow TNT analysts posted on NBA.com last week, O'Neal placed Howard below Lopez and Bynum because of his "pick-and-roll" style of play.

    There seems to be genuine heat between those two. I was watching an episode of Open Court on NBATV yesterday. They were debating who the best big man in the game was and Shaq would just not give Dwight any props. It almost seemed like he was saying that Brook Lopez is a better center that Howard.
