Shaq takes shot at Lakers, Clippers during Justin Bieber roast (Video)
The roast of Justin Bieber aired on Comedy Central Monday night, and there were plenty of hilarious jokes about the 21-year-old. There were also some basketball jokes, which makes sense since Shaquille O’Neal was the host.
For starters, Shaq couldn’t resist taking a shot at his former team.
“I haven’t seen a more disappointing lineup since the last Lakers game,” Shaq said with a smile.
The Lakers, of course, are 20-53 and are having one of their worst seasons in years. However, Shaq wasn’t about to pick on one NBA team from Los Angeles and let the other off the hook. He also took aim at Chris Paul, who was sitting in the audience.
“Speaking of the game, my main man Chris Paul from the Clippers is down there,” Shaq said. “Hey Chris, the way you guys are playing, you ain’t gonna be getting a ring. I got four of them if you need to borrow one. You guys suck.”
While the Clippers haven’t lived up to expectations, they have won seven games in a row. The roast must have been taped before their current win streak, which makes it even funnier.
Shaq has always shown he is not afraid to speak his mind, so there were no real surprises there. I bet even Kobe Bryant’s surprised he didn’t come into the crosshairs.
