Being a stand-up comic, Chris Rock is quite popular among fans. Apart from that, he is also a regular in comedy movies such as the Grown Ups. But recently, Rock is in the news for something else.

The 57-year-old was recently seen at the 2022 Oscars as a host. While Rock did a great job, for the most part, we are sure most are aware of one incident in particular. Yes, we are talking about when Rock made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s Alopecia condition.

Due to that joke, Will Smith slapped Chris Rock, and it instantly became a meme and something to laugh about for the entire world. Additionally, fans have got to work to find something else that can be used to troll Chris Rock.

Well, one video that we found was of Chris Rock getting owned by Ahmad Rashad. Here is how the conversation went between the two when Rock was present at an NBA game:

Rashad: “If you would have gotten here on time, when the game started you would have seen Michael has been burning it up.”

Rock: “You are a football player and now you’re basketball? I mean.”

Rashad: “I’m asking the questions.”

Rock: “You never see like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar doing a boxing match? How did you get this job?”

Rashad: “Because I’m like that!”

Rock: “Okay.”

Although Rock tried to embarrass Rashad, the former football player had other plans and gave him a hard time trying to make a comeback.

At the time, he was new to his role as a sports presenter. However, now Rashad has become one of the better people in his profession. As for Rock, he is definitely going through a tough time right now.

In conclusion, we mean no offense to Rock and he is one of our favorite stand-up comics.
