Centers like Rudy Gobert and JaVale McGee are no exception. If O'Neal finds it amusing to poke fun at the big, he won't hold back. This became the reason for his beef against McGee, who was always in the crosshairs of the LA Lakers legend.Just a few weeks ago, former Orlando Magic superstar Dwight Howard debuted in Taiwan. He displayed Chamberlain-like numbers due to the competition in his new league. O'Neal, however, still targeted the veteran center and compared his performance to his session in the Lifetime Fitness league.Afterward, Howard responded via his Instagram account by calling out the four-time champion:&quot;This message is for Shaquille O'Neal... First thing I want to say is, you gotta stop hating brother. You gotta stop hating! I have never in my life came at you about your basketball career, your family, your kids, anything of the sort.&quot;&quot;Because there is no need to. The world is too big to hate on another man. … Have I joked about, I've mimicked your voice, have I mimicked what I see on TV? Everybody do that. Comedians do that. People do that all the time. And I do it all the time, I do that to everybody. But I do not hate on people.&quot;O'Neal responded by apologizing to Howard after his own mother scolded him. Shaquille O'Neal expressed his apology on NBA on TNT:&quot;Mr. Dwight Howard, I owe you apology and I will never hurt your feelings again.&quot;As to whether this will stop him from poking at Howard in the future will be revealed in time.Also read: Shaquille O’Neal slams Rudy Gobert for venting on social media about his criticism – “Stop letting people dunk on you, put somebody on your a**”
