Shaquille O’Neal Loses His Breath on Live TV As Charles Barkley Pulls Out Brutal ‘Grandma’ Insult To Silence People

Being a celebrity comes with its perks and disadvantages. While you are widely loved and followed by millions of fans all around the world, you are also prone to backlashes or trolling for one reason or the other. Although many choose to ignore the negative comments, a resurfaced video of Charles Barkley showed that the Hall of Famer has no tolerance for trolls. The former Phoenix Suns star even had some harsh ‘reality-check’ to give on the episode of NBA on TNT.

The new digital era of social media platforms has made it easier for certain users to sit in front of the screen and anonymously spout harsh criticisms regarding anyone they dislike. However, Barkley’s savage reply to the trolls had his fellow NBA analysts, especially Shaquille O’Neal, gasping for air.

Shaquille O’Neal struggles to form words

In a 2018 episode of NBA on TNT, Charles Barkley addressed a troll for their ‘insensitive’ comment on former Philadelphia 76ers star Markelle Fultz. Following a game between the Chicago Bulls and the Sixers, Ernie Johnson shared that he read a tweet that questioned the purpose behind treating Fultz like the lead character from the movie ‘Rudy’ when the NBA star was the first overall pick in the 2017 Draft. An annoyed Barkley replied that Fultz was going through his mental struggles. Therefore, fans were hyping him up as a show of support.

“The kid is struggling mentally with his shot. We’re all pulling for him, that’s why we are excited to see him do well and you’re just sitting at home in your grandma’s basement with your draws on, typing on your d*mn keyboard. Shut the hell up, we’re pulling for Markelle Fultz,” Barkley said.

Similarly, his colleagues, Johnson and Kenny Smith, and the crew behind the camera couldn’t control their laughter as Barkley went on to rip the troll with his crushing reply.
