Shaq tried to start a ‘We hate Chuck’ chant with the crowd on ‘Inside the NBA’ but fans weren’t here for it

“We love Chuck!”

Inside the NBA traveled out to Salt Lake City for the All-Star game this weekend and, man, does it look like a blast.

Charles Barkley and Shaq already seem to be having a great time. The two were up to their usual shenanigans during Thursday night’s NBA action, except for this time they had a crowd behind them, too.

Shaq tried to use the crowd to his advantage. He tried to start a “we hate Chuck” chant in the middle of the broadcast and wanted fans to get in on it.

But the crowd turned on him and started booing. Apparently, they love Barkley in Utah.

“They won’t even do it. They said they love Chuck,” Kenny Smith said. The crowd really reversed things on Shaq. They actually broke out into a legitimate “We love Chuck,” chant and that’s pretty cool.

This weekend is going to be fun. The Inside crew is already having a blast.
