No one is safe from ending up on Shaqtin’ A Fool. Literally, no one. This season alone, Steph Curry and James Harden have already landed a spot—alongside mainstay JaVale McGee—on the Shaquille O'Neal-hosted segment of TNT's Inside the NBA that highlights the fails of players around the league over the past week. However, according to Shaqtin' A Fool producer Mike Goldfarb, the agent of a "consensus top-5 NBA player" contacted Shaquille O'Neal's agent in an effort to be kept off the show. 

Unquestionably LeBron.

If this "consensus top-5 NBA player" wants to be excluded from Shaqtin' A Fool, it's quite simple: Get the golden ticket. 

In the meantime, let poor Mike Goldfarb live!
