@DwightHoward the fact u think I care about u is funny, but I won’t ever bring your name up again sensitive big man, a jokester that can’t take a joke. Won’t ever say your name again ever again. Have a great day and now u have been deleted. Have a great day.” Shaquille O’Neal claimed on X, that he wouldn’t drag Dwight Howard’s name going forward. But it seems his best friend did not sign on that as he once again trolled the 3x DPOY.

This time, Anthony C Hall added the couple video of the former video and his wife Amy Luciani. In that video, the newly wedded couple was normally brushing their teeth. But what irked fans and caught them by surprise was that Dwight Howard and his wife shared the toothbrush. DH12  even doubled down in the caption, writing, “It’s not real love unless you’re sharing a toothbrush 🤷🏿❤.” But fans questioned the decision.

Shaquille O’Neal’s best friend too falls in that category. He added two stickers signifying him being baffled at the former Lakers’ choice. In less than 48 hours, it is the second time, Hall has dissed Dwight Howard. In his previous Instagram story, he used the on-court matchup of Shaq and DH12 to send across the point.

Ahead of the All-Star weekend, Hall reminded everyone of another Big Aristotle moment. It was during the 2009 All-Star game which was the traditional East vs West format, Dwight Howard representing the East challenged Shaquille O’Neal. “‘What we got? What we got’? And with ‘What do you got? What do you got?’” At the time, Shaq did not get into a war of words like his X replies recently, but by his actions.

He responds with a give-and-go between DH12’s legs for the slam dunk. And you know what was more embarrassing, the 3x DPOY was mic’d. But Hall is known for sharing comedic relief reels, one of them included his best friend.

Shaq and Dwight Howard receive the same treatment from Hall

Shaq and Hall first met during the filming of Blue Chips, where they also meet rapper 50 Cent. Later, they teamed up again for a remake of The White Shadow with CBS. Because of this, they forged a bond, and now that extends beyond the professional realm. It will be their third decade of friendship, so one can expect embarrassing video uploads from best friends.

Hall did that and posted a video in which Shaquille O’Neal is dancing bare-chested in his gray boxers. While he is rubbing something on his chest, that entire sequence freaks out the actor. Even the 4x NBA Champion had no clue how to react, as his secret was out. “Please help me wish my crazy LITTLE Best Friend @shaq a Happy Birthday!” This way of sending a birthday wish is remarkably entertaining.

So, by all means, Anthony C Hall will share things that he finds entertaining. For him, it won’t matter if the clip is about his best friend or best friend’s enemy.
