NBA legends Charles Barkley and Shaq got heated Tuesday night about whether or not coaches should baby star players.
Actually, saying things got heated might be an understatement. It got extremely personal. Barkley was calling out Shaq for needing Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade to carry him to championships.
Naturally, Shaq didnt just take that. He retorted with, “Ive got three finals MVPs, Google me, Chuck. Google me.”

Im so happy that we live in a world where Charles Barkley and Shaq can go at each others throats on live television. Youre an idiot if you dont find this to be grade-A entertainment. How could you not?
I like Barkley a lot more than Shaq, but the former Lakers superstar is 100 percent correct. You cant be babying your players. You have to draw a line in the sand, and let people know that the line wont be crossed without consequences. You cant have the athletes running the show. It will never work.
On a much more important note, Id love to just have these two debate whatever the biggest story of the day in the world is. Imagine these two discussing Trump and North Korea. Thats the kind of content the world is eager for.
