Shaq, Charles Barkley can’t stop laughing after Anthony Davis wheelchair report; Ernie Johnson not amused

Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley always have a good time on TNT’s “Inside the NBA.”

On Wednesday night, they laughed so hard they cried, and Ernie Johnson wasn’t amused.

Johnson mentioned Los Angeles Lakers’ Anthony Davis leaving the court in a wheelchair after sustaining a head injury against the Warriors on Wednesday night. The two former NBA stars were laughing so hard, they couldn’t speak, blaming the other the delay in the conversation about the Warriors’ 121-106 win in Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals playoff series.

Davis appeared to get struck inadvertently in the face by Warriors center Kevon Looney while fighting for a rebound in the fourth quarter.

“These guys man,” Kenny Smith said after he paused his analysis due to the laugher.

When Johnson asked what they were laughing about, Smith said, “You know what they’re laughing about.”

O’Neal added, “I’m laughing at Chuck.

At that point Johnson seemed to have had enough and said, “Man, guys. Come on now.”
