This post season Shaquille O?Neal has taken a different approach.  His place in history may already be set, but in the past he has gone out there during the playoffs with the sole focus of trying to win championships, an effort which would help seal his legacy just as Michael, Larry and Magic did before him.

But he now has his championships, and Shaq is out there having fun.  O'Neal was upbeat and playful before and during the first two games reports Vincent Bonsignore of the Daily News.

O?Neal can often be seen smiling and joking, even taking a few moments to play up to TV cameras after sinking a pair of free throws in Game 2, first staring at the rim when the ball didn't fall through cleanly, than dabbing the side of his face after another make as if he were putting on after-shave lotion before a big date.

"It's all about marketing," O'Neal joked Friday after the Lakers practiced. "I'm just out there having fun, just trying not to worry about all the other stuff."
