Inside the NBA is one of the best basketball analysis shows on network TV. While it used to air only on Thursdays during the regular season, the playoffs changed that. Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, and Ernie Johnson were on our TV almost daily. However, they got a three-day break recently. During this time, Kenny had some pictures of him leaked by TMZ. This led Shaq and Chuck to tease their co-star.

Over the course of the last few days, Kenny Smith was in Miami. Apparently, he wasn’t alone. He was having a blast with model Aline Bernardes. TMZ uploaded pictures of the two of them having a good time at the beach.

Kenny’s adventure got the prime spot when the guys discussed their three-day breaks.

Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley tease Kenny Smith over his beach fun

The Inside guys aren’t used to long breaks, especially during the Playoffs. So when they did get a break, they all had fun in their own way. Taking about their breaks, Chuck shared how he was with his new grandchild. Ernie Johnson also talked about spending time with his granddaughter and attending her soccer game.

After Chuck and Ernie shared their photos, Ernie asked if the others wanted to share photos from their weekend. Chuck laughed and said he had a photo of Kenny he’d like to share. Kenny replied and said,

“I was at Formula 1. First time at Formula 1. Shaq and I were hanging out a lot together”

Before Kenny could complete his sentence, Shaquille O’Neal stopped him, implying a lot happened and Shaq wasn’t ready for the public to hear it. To change the topic, Ernie brought in the segment to preview Game 4 of the Suns-Nuggets.

However, after that, the crew showed tweets from users making memes about Kenny. There was a shirtless photo of Kenny and a dog, instead of Kenny and Aline. To that, Ernie said,

“That wasn’t the same photo I saw!”

This left Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley laughing. The crew then continued to tease Kenny for a bit, who clearly wanted to keep his weekend adventures under the wrap, or at least try and contain what the common public knew.

Shaq was busy with parties this weekend

With the three-day break and the Grand Prix returning to Miami, it was a sure thing that Shaquille O’Neal would be there. After all, DJ Diesel performed at the Circuit of Americas GP last year, and the year before that.

Apparently, DJ Diesel was also present at other events. A Twitter user uploaded a video of him partying while Shaq played his set.

While we didn’t get any pictures of Shaq at the paddock, there were images of the big man at parties all across the celebratory weekend in Miami.
