On TNT’s NBA coverage, Shaq strikes a hilarious comment on why his chair is too high
On the live coverage of TNT’s NBA, Kenny Smith hilariously asked Shaq why his chair was so high. Shaq was seeming to be of equal height while he was sitting on his chair and the other panellists standing next to him.
As soon as Kenny Smith asked Shaq, he replied that he was not the same size as anyone or anybody out there. Soon after saying that, Shaquille humorously pulled down his chair in order to look equal to the other panellists on the set.
Charles Barkley, without having any second thoughts, said, “You’re not the same size as anybody. …. You are the biggest human being in the world.” Charles Barkley as always cannot keep himself out of a conversation that is funny.
One of the greatest players in NBA history, Shaquille O’Neal has seen his extraordinary run of championships (4), All-Star appearances (15), and relevance (drafted in 1992) comes to an unexpected and disappointing end. He’s an older statesman in basketball right now. He is the NBA player with the longest tenure, and as with other older players, his skills have gotten worse.
He made fun of Boston’s starting centre, Kendrick Perkins. He has really made fun of almost every member of the league, including Kobe, Dwight, Pat Riley, and Stan Van Gundy. Shaq has openly ridiculed older players and character players who put their egos aside to succeed during his whole career.
“Leadership by performance” was permissible when he was leading the league and capable of defeating double teams. He challenged the team to perform at a level of excellence that matched his own. He mocked them when they failed. No team will even give him a chance now that he has fallen short of his own expectations. Shaq has had a fantastic career, but he will never again be a champion or a great choice.
