Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley couldn’t stop laughing after hearing about last night’s Rockets/Clippers locker room showdown.

After losing to the Clippers in LA, Rockets Chris Paul, James Harden, Trevor Ariza and Clint Capela reportedly snuck into the home team’s locker room to confront Blake Griffin and Austin Rivers.

No hands were thrown, but LAPD was called to keep things escalating.

Having survived their fair share of hardwood squabbles, Chuck and Shaq couldn’t keep from cracking up at the idea of 6’10 Blake Griffin needing protection from 6’2 Chris Paul.
