Forget fiercely competitive NBA stars. The O’Neal kids give their dad the hardest time. Shaquille O’Neal was having a casual moment online, thinking he was cooling with his gimmick, making people laugh. Taahirah O’Neal entered the chat. She’s the most Shaq-like. So it took only one sentence for her to destroy her dad’s cool image.

Shaquille O’Neal is enjoying his downtime between the NBA In-Season Tournament. He gave a glimpse of his laidback antics on Instagram with a nod to Andre 3000, who recently made a comeback. “had that flute smokin like @andre3000 album in stores now,” he wrote.

While his 33 million followers along with his blue-tick friends are commenting about the ‘smokey’ shenanigans, his daughter was dismayed at his lounging fashion. In fact, Taahirah wants this image to be gone. “Not the cheetah print DRAWERS pops 😭😂 Delete this,” was her arbitrary plea. She’s been on a spree of cramping his style lately.

Recently, Shaq was playing color commentator for the day and Taahirah and Shareef were at the Miami Heat game too. Not only did they have to see their dad’s “Chuck moment” while explaining Heat Culture, but they weren’t having any of his inspiring words either.

He was in a suit instead of the black tank top and cheetah drawers when he was asked for an inspirational quote. His piercing words were, “Damn I look good.” Taahirah was so done with her dad, that she summoned anyone willing to collect him.

The self-proclaimed “Big Kid” that he is, Taahirah has seen plenty of O’Neal’s funny gimmicks right from the days of his acting debut. We wonder if she’s seen Shaq’s ‘hot pink’ imagery yet and what she thinks about that.

Shaquille O’Neal and his daughter have work to do

It’s a busy day for Shaq tomorrow. The Inside the NBA crew will be covering the In-Season Tournament semifinals in Las Vegas on December 7 with their counterparts at ESPN. He’s got a lot of bantering to unpack when Stephen A. Smith is in the TNT studio.

Meanwhile, Taahirah went from Miami to Houston to Tennessee. She made the flight with her mom, Arnetta Yardbourgh, to see her godmother, Katrina Chambers. Taahirah’s “Aunt Trina” is an instrumental part of the operations for the Tennessee State football team and is her niece’s role model.

She made sure to keep tabs on her dad while they were apart. No fashion faux pas will be tolerated on Taahirah O’Neal’s watch. But Shaq, don’t delete it.
