Funnily, there isn’t much of a difference between famous Inside the NBA hosts Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley regarding a few things. Both are bald, they have a legendary resume, and most importantly, they have great humor. However, some are unable to find a difference! In the latest episode of Shaq’s ‘The Big Podcast’, a TNT host explained how so, which ultimately led to Shaq roasting the Chuckster.

Charles Barkley is a 6’6 retired power forward, and on the other hand, Shaquille O’Neal is a 7ft former center. Although there are a few resemblances between the two, it’s also not hard to differentiate between them. However, Barkley doesn’t think so. Adam Lefkoe imitated CB, to share a concern of the Philadelphia 76ers icon

Lefkoe shared, “I was drinking with Chuck last night…I was talking to him. I said, ‘Do you really still get called Shaq?’. He said, ‘I get called Shaq 25 times a week. 25 times a week, people come to me and go, ‘Oh Shaq’.’ And I was like, ‘Really? But you are Charles Barkley. ” Sadly, everybody mistakes Barkley for Shaq. However, the LA champion denies this. Shaquille O’Neal said, “No. Charles is not this f**king good-looking at all”.

Big Diesel rather believes former boxer George Foreman has a lot of resemblance with Barkley as “both of them got big heads”. But according to Shaq, he humorously put it out there that he considers himself the better-looking one!

Foreman and Barkley have a lot of similarities, to be frank. Both are bald, like Shaq said, they are almost of the same height, and both of them do not have facial hair. So that point was fair. However, Barkley has compared Shaq with someone famous worldwide. Oh, rather, it is an animated character. A few years ago on Inside the NBA, Big Diesel was questioned about who people mistake him with, and Barkley hilariously responded, “Shrek”. The entire crew burst out into laughter, even the ones behind the camera.

Host Ernie Johnson added to Barkley’s comments, “Dr. Shrektin’A Fool”, and the 4x champion almost lost it. Well, Shrek is a huge figure too. Although Shrek is green in color, there are a few similarities between them as they also have a similar-sounding name. It looks like Shaquille O’Neal has funnily taken revenge for Barkley’s joke from a few years back.
