Knicks legend Carmelo Anthony has weighed in on the seemingly endless beef between Shaq and Rudy Gobert.
You can catch up on their beef in some in our previous articles, but the pair have been trading blows for some time now.
It’s not the first time Shaq has dissed Gobert, but things started to heat up again when O’Neal named the Timberwolves big man as the WOAT – worst of all time NBA player.
Melo has asked the Lakers legend to cool it with the Gobert slander.
“Yo Shaq, Champ, leave Rudy the f*** alone man,” Anthony said on his podcast, 7PM in Brooklyn. “Come on bro like stall him out man, stall the guy out, man. You know, Sacré bleu, and all this sh*t.”
Melo also suggested that one of the reasons O’Neal is so salty towards certain current NBA players is because they don’t feel the need to consult the Hall-of-Famer for basketball advice.
“I wish they would [see Shaq],” Anthony said. “With that being said, they don’t want to because they don’t feel like there’s any relevancy between Shaq’s game and the game today. So nobody is saying go see Shaq. They’re going to say, hey go see T-Mac, like go see this guy, go see Melo, like they ain’t like go see Shaq. Now that’s the unfortunate part right, what I’m saying to your point if they did reach out to him and incorporate him into training and giving back to the game from that standpoint. He does give back to the game a lot but from that standpoint these young guys ain’t going to want to say, ‘Yo Shaq, come teach me’. I wanted Shaq.”
