Isaiah Thomas Jokes About His Son's Feud with Shaquille O'Neal
Isaiah Thomas knows the origin of his son's brewing rivalry with Shaquille O'Neal.
On Dec. 20, the Cleveland Cavaliers guard shared a clip from the Players' Tribune's Book of Isaiah via Twitter. While Thomas explained Kobe Bryant's retirement to his sons, James and Jaiden, one remarked that Bryant is not fat like O'Neal.
The NBA on TNT crew watched the video during Thursday's Inside the NBA. Charles Barkley defended his colleague by jokingly threatening to punch the child in his left eye.

Thomas made light of the situation by posting a picture that could explain his son's resentment toward the four-time NBA champion.
The young Thomas had no interest in getting smooched by Shaq.
