Shaquille O’Neal, as he is commonly known, is a seven-foot-tall colossus who frequently wrecked havoc on opponents on the basketball court during his playing career. Big Shaq, now retired, chose to destroy others through his goofy antics and activities, commonly seen on TNT.
Let the four-time NBA champion’s appearance not fool around; he is literally a big man-boy pulling pranks on everybody. Recently, his fresh haircut drew unwanted attention from a certain media figure, Stephen A. Smith.
What did Stephen A. Smith say regarding Shaq’s intended haircut?
The renowned sports journalist Stephen A. Smith took the new haircut rather personally. Stephen calls O’Neal a ‘ba*#*rd’ in a Twitter video for imitating his own distinct hairline. “Shaq ya Ba*#*rd! … SHAQ I’m gonna get you!” Smith yelled hilariously.

The 55-year-old also threatened Shaq to get revenge for the mocking! It would be very amusing to see Smith appear on his show with a goatee like O’neal.
On the other hand, the culprit in the context is also enjoying this virtual bout. He accepted the nickname given by his TNT crew, ‘Stephen A. Shaq’ very eagerly to crank the heat up.
After all the pranks Shaquille pulls, he obviously deserves an A+. The NBA on TNT show is delivering more antics these days, thanks to host Shaquille O’Neal.
What else did Shaquille O’Neal do on TNT?
The 15-time NBA all-star explicitly showed off his new haircut in the show by pulling the legs of Stephen A.

When it came to pulling legs, he went beyond the human race. He literally ate a frog roast on the show.
