Shaq opens the show by diving right in on the Internet conversation that Draymond Green could guard him in today's NBA - and he does NOT hold back, with one of the more profanity laced responses we've gotten from the big man in a long time! He then turns around and blasts the NBA players who want the term "owner" removed from the NBA, because he thinks it's a stupid argument and it affects him as an NBA owner and a business owner, and says today's players need to focus on community politics instead of stuff like this. Shaq also has high praise for Kawhi Leonard and his performance in the NBA Finals. We also laugh at some of the dumbest news stories of the month, kick around lots of topics in a round of Jump Ball, and we put our brains to the test in a round of "Truth or Sheeee."
