Shaquille O’Neal showed off his disgusting feet during the TNT NBA halftime show. It was much more interesting than the actual game.

Now we know why the Celtics have stunk up the first half! After a blowout in the first half of Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Shaquille O’Neal showed off his hideous feet to provide some entertainment to this one-sided contest. The Cavaliers lead the Celtics 75-57 at the half. It’s a fair question to ask which is worse; the Celtics performance or Shaq’s feet? Dear god, please let this image leave my brain. For viewers under 18, please be aware it’s not a pretty sight. Exit out while you still have the chance!

Athletes having mangled up feet isn’t something that is too surprising. After playing twenty NBA seasons as one of the heaviest players to every play in the league, we probably should have seen this coming. Shaq will also be the cover man for the next edition of the NBA 2K series. His role on the TNT NBA show has also been broadcast in the game over the years along with Kenny ‘The Jet’ Smith and Ernie Johnson. He’s a public figure. Meeting his feet is less than ideal.

Shaq had a number of foot and toe issues during his career. Dear Shaq, I know this isn’t the manliest thing in the world but maybe it’s time for a pedicure? In a world where male rompers are a thing, please do us a favor and get those taken care of, no one’s judging you.

With the expected victory, the Cavaliers will advance to a third straight NBA Finals appearance where they will take on the Golden State Warriors. Now that we have the much-anticipated matchup, hopefully, there won’t be any more gimmicks to entertain the fans.  Shaq’s feet were enough to keep me watching this ugly blowout over the Celtics.
