Shaquille O'Neal was not having it when a 'fan' approached him and declared that the NBA Hall of Famer couldn't guard him. While recording himself telling O'Neal that the Lakers legend couldn't defend him in a game, the fan got more than he bargained for.
Without much hesitation, O'Neal snatched the phone up while it was still recording. As he held the phone above his head where it was out of reach, O'Neal taunted the man by telling him to jump and get it. Despite the man's protests, Big Diesel encouraged him to jump and get his phone back while the man helplessly watched on.
The video was quick to make the rounds as many praised Shaquille O'Neal for putting the man in his place. On the other hand, however, some have questioned whether or not the video was set up beforehand. We'll let you watch and decide for yourself. Check out the video below!

Could anyone really guard Shaquille O'Neal?

As Shaquille O'Neal has admitted in the past, several of his fellow Hall of Famers who were able to give him buckets during his career. Several years ago, Shaquille O'Neal admitted that Hakeem Olajuwon, Patrick Ewing, David Robinson and Rik Smits were the toughest players for him to guard.
But what about on the other end of the floor? Was there anyone who could truly defend O'Neal? When posing this question, two names come to mind -- Dennis Rodman and Ben Wallace.
During the course of the 1996 NBA Finals, Rodman was tasked with defending O'Neal. Throughout the course of the game, the undersized Rodman didn't shy away from using every tool at his disposal against Shaq. Rodman managed to hold O'Neal to zero points on plays where he guarded the big man.
The same was true during the 2004 Finals, where Ben Wallace was tasked with defending the Lakers star. Throughout the course of the game, the undersized Wallace managed to hold O'Neal to just 14 points. The most impressive thing about the game was the fact that Wallace managed to keep O'Neal scoreless during crunch time.
The following year in the 2005 Eastern Conference Finals, Wallace, once again, was able to make things difficult for O'Neal during the seven-game series. His performance helped the Pistons ultimately defeat the Heat to advance to the Finals.
The next year when the two teams matched up in the Eastern Conference Finals again Wallace was able to repeat his previous success' against Shaq. Unfortunately for Big Ben and the Pistons, the Miami Heat were able to get revenge and cruise to the NBA Finals en route to a Championship win.
