Social media spoke last week, and Shaq listened. Droves of followers across Instagram, Twitter and Facebook got on the 7'1" NBA Hall of Famer for taking his shoes and socks off on the air during a live TNT "Inside the NBA" telecast. Ernie Johnson set the roasting off when he said his foot looked like a baked potato with toes. Once the clip made it online, it was over for the reputation of his size 22s.

On Wednesday, May 31, a new recording of the big man's feet revealed them to be in much better shape, as he sat receiving a pedicure. The woman handling the duties appeared to go in; clipping, scraping and scrubbing with all of her strength as she handled each foot taking up the height of her upper torso, before her. At times the viewer could hear Shaq as he grimaces in pain while recording the cotton balls separating his platinum polished toenails.

Finally, the woman rubbed his legs and feet with lotion, leaving big Diesel's lower extremities freshly groomed for a possible appearance during his NBA Finals hosting slots, scheduled to take place alongside Charles Barkley and Chris Webber for Games 3 and 4.
