Shaq details why ‘I f–king hate’ Rudy Gobert in wild rant as bad blood intensifies
NY Post
Shaquille O’Neal’s longstanding feud with Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert took an even more drastic twist Thursday.
The NBA Hall of Famer has traded barbs with Gobert for years, but this time it got personal.
“I f–king hate Rudy Gobert,” said O’Neal on his podcast “The Big Podcast with Shaq.”
“Because that motherf–ker making $250 million, [and] he don’t deserve it, dawg. F–k that. As the president of The Big Man Alliance, you making big money, play like a f–king big man. That’s it. Throw some [elbows], knock some people out, don’t be letting little white dudes from Denver dunk on you and talk s–t to you.”
Gobert, a four-time defensive player of the year, has averaged 11.7 rebounds, 12.6 points, 2.1 blocks and 0.7 steals per game in his 12-year career.
O’Neal is hoping those accomplishments aren’t enough to make the two Hall of Fame counterparts.
