Apparently, the older “Superman” still isn’t a fan of the younger “Superman.”

When Shaquille O’Neal — attending a grand opening for a pizza parlor — was recently asked by TMZ Sports what he thought about Dwight Howard joining the Lakers, his old team, he said, “Who? I don’t know him.”

Howard likely wouldn’t be surprised about the passive-aggressive swipe.

Last year, the Lakers’ new big man told NBC Sports why he believes Shaq might not like him.

“I think it’s a little insecurity on his part because people call him ‘Superman’ and they call me ‘Superman.’ But if I’m an older guy and it’s younger players that are being compared to me and they have that same nickname, I want to feel good about it.”

During that interview, Howard said he doesn’t like taking shots at retired NBA players, but felt he finally had to say something.

“I just think it comes off to me as a little bit insecure when you’re taking shots at somebody that’s 10, 12 years younger than you.”

Howard, an eight-time All-Star center, agreed to a contract with the Lakers on Monday. The non-guaranteed deal comes with a stern caveat from the Lakers that if Howard disrupts the team, he will be gone, league sources told ESPN.com.

The Lakers first acquired Howard in 2012 via a trade with the Magic and people questioned his commitment to the team. He subsequently signed with the Rockets after one year in Los Angeles. The Lakers aren’t the only team that has had trouble integrating Howard into their mix. The eight-time All-Star butted heads with James Harden during their three seasons as teammates with the Rockets.

Howard, 33, followed his time in Houston with single-season tenures with the Hawks, Hornets and Wizards. Howard, a 15-year veteran who has been in the NBA since 2004, has averaged 17.4 points and 12.6 rebounds in his career. O’Neal, a Hall of Famer, averaged 23.7 points and 10.7 rebounds during his 19-year career, and has won four NBA title to Howard’s zero.
