Since bidding farewell to basketball, the four-time NBA Champion Shaquille O’Neal has taken up the role of a basketball analyst. The LA Lakers legend has been the host of the show on TNT for many years now. Shaq often co-hosts the show with his buddy, Charles Barkley. Apart from giving their valuable insight on NBA, the duo is often seen pulling each other’s legs.
And, just so it happens, they did it once again. Shaq brutally exposed the Philadelphia 76ers legend for his inability to do a basic thing on live television. As much as fans love them, they again got to see the witty banter flowing around with Shaq, mocking the way Barkley speaks.

On their show, Inside the NBA on TNT, Shaq was doing the usual hosting activities, promoting a TV show. We see the crew quickly applaud Shaq for his promotional segment, completing everything in one go. However, Barkley didn’t seem impressed. He was visibly annoyed by all the applause DJ Dieself was getting. According to Barkley, there shouldn’t be an applause for something so trivial.
To this, O’Neal gives a quick, witty, and brutal reply to Chuck. He challenges him to do the same thing. And Barkley, being his fiercely competitive self, accepts the challenge. He starts repeating the promotional segment on a pleasant note. But, along the way, he makes many errors.
This causes the entire show crew to burst out in laughter. Shaq then continues by saying, “Just Stop it, man”, exposing Barkley’s inability to pronounce the words right in front of the entire world.

Considering their banter, this wasn’t the first time. Barkley getting trolled by Shaq is seen pretty often. In fact, just a few weeks back Shaq fat-shamed Barkley at the opening of his new restaurant.
