The NBA’s return to action has paved the way for the ‘Inside’ guys to make their comeback as well. The only change is that the four of them are seated farther away from each other. But that hasn’t stopped Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley from having their usual heated exchanges, has it?
Chuck and Shaq are the stars of the show, who entertain fans with their hilarious banter. In fact, the entire crew never fails to deliver an amazing show. The Inside the NBA program is certainly a boon for NBA fans.
On a recent episode of the studio show on TNT, Chuck and Shaq went at it again, and the four-time champion began bragging about his championship experience. The crew was analyzing the Blazers-Nets game when Shaq said, “First of all, I speak from not [just] being a great defensive player but having championship experience. I know what the hell I’m talking about.”

This could be seen as a direct blow to Charles Barkley, who unfortunately failed to win a ring during his 16 year NBA career. However, Chuck did not back down in the face of adversity. He improvised his comeback while Shaq was explaining how important it is for every player in a team to step up and contribute.
