VIDEO: Footage Emerges From 'Inside the NBA' Roast During All-Star Break and It's Hilarious
By Sean Facey
The crew of Ernie Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith are usually the ones doing the clowning on "Inside the NBA." But during the All-Star Break, they had the script flipped on them in a roast session, and the results were beyond comical.

A group of celebrities led by Tiffany Haddish spared no expense in picking the guys apart, going all in on both their personalities and their appearances.
Be it Barkley's weight, Shaq's voice, Ernie's role as peacekeeper of the cast or Kenny's name, every corner was covered by the star-studded group of roasters. They even turned on the crowd and each other at times, that's how cold-blooded they were.

But the best part was that they all took it in stride, and when the show was about to close out, Shaq and Co. took one last opportunity to dish the roasters right back.
It's good to see these guys get a good laugh in at their own expense. It's been a long time coming considering how relentless they've been on the NBA!
