After 40 [years old], you can’t hold it anymore.”Smith said his colleague read somewhere that olive oil helps to clean the gut. So, he’s testing it out. “You have to do it for two weeks,” Barkley added to the conversation. Johnson joked: “He’s gonna miss a lot of air time then.”Things took another step, though, when the broadcast decided to show a replay of O’Neal heading to the bathroom, which he thought was over the line. “Chuck, stop talking so damn much, finish your point so we can go to break,” O’Neal said when he got back to the desk. He also noted that it was too much water, which led to the necessary bathroom break. “I’m sitting here like, ‘Shut the hell up and hurry up.’ Sorry about that, America,” O’Neal added.From shoving O’Neal into a Christmas tree, to making fun of Barkley’s statements throughout the season, the “Inside the NBA” team has always provided some laughable moments. One truly never knows what this crew will do next. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
