Allen Iverson and Shaquille O’Neal are among the best players to have graced the NBA in the late 1990s and early 2000s. They lit up the league, set the benchmark for athletes, and started various trends.
Shaq made sure the NBA regulations about backboards were tight. His dominance is something that every big man in the league dreams of.
Allen Iverson was the prototype point guard. From the arm sleeves to the braids to the tattoos, the Answer made everything about being a point guard cool.
A lot of players will point to Iverson when you ask them who their inspiration was. The same goes for the Lakers legend. The two were both Reebok athletes during their heyday and they have been great friends since.
But what happens when the Big Diesel gets a hold of AI’s phone? Does he go easy or does he start roasting his close friend?

Shaq gets access to Allen Iverson’s Instagram and puts up a hilarious story!
When Reebok commemorated both the legends’ careers with a shoe event, O’Neal took no time stealing AI’s phone.
He immediately jumped onto Instagram to ridicule his friend and O’Neal does not hold back! O’Neal starts off by saying that AI’s followers should care more about his throwback more than Iverson’s.
He adds figures such as the fact that he has 4 rings compared to Iverson’s 0. How they came back and won 4 straight after the Sixers went up 1-0 in the 2001 NBA Finals.
Shaq also talks about how his shoes sell more than AI’s and why would anyone want to wear a little man’s shoes when they can wear a big man’s.
Then he starts singing about how he got his followers! Iverson later retaliates by putting up his own story stating that he was the most dominant little man of all time.
He also talks about how after Jordan left the league his shoes sold the most units. He also adds that he isn’t talking s*** to either T-Mac or Shaq but rather, how his stuff is doing the talking for him.
That reply was the Answer’s answer! As they are both great friends, they laughed it off and picked up the nice fat checks Reebook laid out for them. Just another day in the life of NBA legends.
