I question Shaq's desire also. My good friend who is a die hard Lakers fan also complains about Shaq's "light switch" dominance.
I think the Lakers buy into the "light switch" too much. And, I thought it was over for the NBA because I thought the 7 game classic w/ the Queens would wake up the Lakers and they'd go on a 71 win tear.
Shaq probably just thought, I'll get it going sometime in February/March...scary thing is, by the time he's in shape...what will the Lakers record be?
It's all moot, I still think the Lakers will take it this year.
