Shaquille O'Neal and Dwight Howard have been beefing for a couple of decades now.
Just a couple of months ago, Dwight offered to fight Shaq in the boxing ring, but Shaq turned him down.
Their new round of beef erupted after Dwight talked about Shaq on a recent episode of The Gaud Show podcast.
"Do we need to throw hands?"

"Every time I hear about you, you’re disrespecting me in some way," said Dwiight. "At this point, I’m like, do we need to throw hands? What are we doing?"
Shaq responded on X.
"@DwightHoward the fact u think I care about u is funny," he tweeted. "But I won’t ever bring your name up again sensitive big man, a jokester that can’t take a joke. Won’t ever say your name again ever again. Have a great day and now u have been deleted. Have a great day."
Dwight later shot back.
"I know you care," he wrote in part. "Cuz yo insecure ass been hating and talking sh*t for 20 years. You [too] big to be this insecure. I hope you don’t bring my name up again. 52 years old tweeting me. And still hating. Now all this time you was joking. You always been jealous. Jealous of Kobe, penny, dwayde. You jealous of Charles too."
Who's right here? Does Shaq really have a history of being jealous of others, and is Dwight overly sensitive?
