Shaq was one of the most dominant big men to ever play the game of basketball. His current role as a TNT analyst allows him to watch plenty of current NBA games and offer up his analysis and criticism. He used his platform to go all in on calling Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid soft Thursday night.

Shaq brought evidence with him to the roast as he shows clear examples of Embiid struggling on defense and shying away from attacking the basket on offense.

He also has a problem with Embiid wearing a band-aid on his injured finger. Shaq certainly didn't hold back on a player who has faced plenty of criticism this year.

Charles Barkley also went in on the 76ers and called them the 'Cleveland Browns of the NBA' for talking so much and failing to back it up with their play. Embiid's struggles only add to the team's problems and it is easy to see why Shaq would criticize someone with with such size and strength who hides from contact and physical play.

Embiid is supposed to be the main piece for the 76ers. Yet another early playoff exit could have fans adopting Shaq's mindset and turning on the big man.
