Shaq Hilariously Called Charles Barkley a ‘Big Dummy’ While Explaining Why the Celtics Are in Trouble

Jimmy Butler and the Heat went into Boston on Wednesday night and stole Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals from the Celtics thanks to a huge second half that included 46 points in the third quarter alone. 

Miami is now three wins away from going to the NBA Finals for the first time since losing to the Lakers in the 2020 COVID-19 bubble. 

The NBA on TNT crew was back on the scene for the game and they were right back to being the best show in sports. If you need proof of that, check out Shaq calling Charles Barkley a “big dummy” while explaining why the Heat are so tough.

Oh, and let’s just hope YouTube TV doesn’t break again
