No amount of career accolades or championship rings will ever protect Shaquille O’Neal from being mocked over being one of the worst free-throw shooters the NBA has ever seen, and the Hall of Famer is still defending himself against those critics.

Earlier this week, Shaq’s son Shareef O’Neal had a funny Instagram post about him and his brother Shaqir being heckled by fans for missed free throws. Shaq commented that his boys should fire back by reminding the haters “you daddy was the best to ever do it.”
