Shaquille O’Neal isn’t just a master of the basketball court, he’s also quite an accomplished prankster and funny guy.

His winning sense of humor was out in full force when he was recently pushed into a Christmas tree during a TNT Halftime Report broadcast.

The person doing the shoving was fellow commentator Kenny Smith.

While many would have been a bit ruffled by the pushing incident, Shaq just let it go.

Well, mostly. He did tell Smith, “This means war!”

He was laughing while he said it, though.

Other than that, he just hoisted his 7-foot-1 frame upright and headed back to the desk.

He was fine, but the tree he landed on was in a pretty rough shape.

The force pushed it back several feet and caused quite a few of its ornaments to go flying.

Many of the wrapped boxes beneath it got a bit roughed up, as well.

Those who may have been away from their televisions when it happened were in luck.

As it was a sports broadcast, there were several replays, including some in slow motion and from alternate angles.
