In the video above, Chris Broussard and Rob Parker react to Shaquille O'Neal shutting down his co-host Anthony "Spice Adams on the Big Podcast with Shaq after Adams asked if Philadelphia 76ers Joel Embiid and James Harden could be the next 'Shaq and Kobe.'
On the latest episode of his Big Podcast With Shaq, Shaq’s co-host Anthony “Spice” Adams asked the Los Angeles Lakers legend if he’s “willing to crown Embiid and Harden the next Shaq and Kobe.”
“No,” Shaq responded at the 46:30 mark. Adams then asked O’Neal if the Philadelphia Sixers duo has the potential to reach his and Kobe’s level one day. “Not at all,” Shaq replied.
“We won three out of four,” he continued. “No. No. Hell, no. Not after one year. Me and Kobe had eight years of damage together. No, not even close. Stop it. Listen, NO, H NO, and F NO.”
Chris Broussard and Rob Parker are right on board with Shaq's sentiments.
Rob Parker: "Shaq is spot on. Can we stop? You can't compare guys playing 5 games together to a duo that won 3 straight championships."
Chris Broussard: "Obviously it's premature. Maybe a more appropriate comparison for Philly fans would be Dr. J and Moses Malone. Those are the two that delivered Philadephia's last NBA Championship in 1983...James Harden and Joel Embiid will Never be Shaq and Kobe."
