Stephen A. Smith vowed payback after Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley had some fun at his expense on national television.
During a postgame report, Inside the NBA host, Charles Barkley hilariously roasted Smith by commenting upon a picture of Boston Celtics’ Derrick White. “Is that Derrick White or Stephen A.? Stephen A. don’t play for the Celtics! He doing First Take in the morning and playing for the Celtics.”

And to top it all off, there was no apology for the ESPN analyst, to which the latter took to Twitter: “Love all of my brothers on @NBAonTNT. But I’m gonna get @SHAQ and Chuck for comparing me with Derrick White. Y’all are gonna pay for that.”

Smith also wished that he would at some stage take over hosting the late-night show. “I would love to be the heir apparent to Jimmy Kimmel. I believe I could do it. I would throw everybody for a loop, my politics would throw people off because I’d be fair to everybody and I’d listen to everybody. It wouldn’t be one-sided, I’m not a one-sided kind of guy. I’m one-sided on issues, I’m not one-sided on ideology.”
It would certainly be interesting to see how Smith fares on the Late night show especially when he’s one of the more hard-hitting personalities sharing his thoughts on a variety of topics.
