Shaqtin' a Fool

[2] Shaqtin' highlights humorous and uncommon basketball plays that have occurred during NBA games in the past week.

The segment regularly features NBA players and also includes, but is not limited to, coaches, referees,[3] fans, mascots,[4] and other arena employees.

On special occasions, the segment features plays which had occurred during the past, including several entire "retro" editions.

There is a special award given to certain players, called the "Shaqtin Golden Ticket," which is lifetime immunity from being included in the segment.

During the special, O'Neal is joined by Ro Parrish and Dennis Scott, and the top Shaqtin' a Fool plays of the season are shown.

[11] On February 27, 2014, a midseason special named the "Shaqtin's" (parodying the Academy Awards) aired on NBA TV featuring O'Neal, Scott and Greenberg.

[12] For 2015, O'Neal, Scott and Greenberg were joined by Funkmaster Flex, who also presented Flexin' A Fool, reserved for players under 6 feet.

In this edition, all winners except Westbrook made an on-camera "acceptance speech" (in Smith's case, Jason Terry, who was also involved in the play, spoke for him).

That led to additional plays featured; another windmill dunk by Ross, this time successful (after his asking for it) and two flops O'Neal made during his career (after "Best Actor" winner Marcus Smart accepted the award but implied that O'Neal flopped some times himself as a player).

In addition, O'Neal's mispronouncing of players' names was featured before the Worst Fast Break was presented.

O'Neal spoke on Smart's behalf and also presented a clip of him taking a seven-step travel in a 2010 playoff game.

McGee's growing displeasure over his frequent appearances culminated into a heated argument between him and Shaquille O'Neal on February 24, 2017, with tweets exchanged between the two.

[22] In an interview with his former teammate Draymond Green on his podcast, he also explained his frustrations about being frequently shown on the segmentI could watch an episode.
