NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal once said if an NBA coach takes a team to the Finals four out of five years like Phil Jackson did with the Los Angeles Lakers, he'll kiss that coach on the feet with cheese on it. Well, Steve Kerr has taken the Golden State Warriors to five straight NBA Finals, winning three and losing two.
Kerr's former player on the Warriors, power forward David West, showed Kerr the old video of Shaq and Kerr hilariously took to Twitter afterwards:
Hey @SHAQ, I’m going to do us both a favor and pretend that @D_West30 didn’t send this to me this morning. pic.twitter.com/oFhpTPYjOo

It looks like Steve Kerr wants no part of Shaquille O'Neal kissing his feet with cheese on it, and we don't blame him. The Warriors coach just wanted to remind The Diesel his Warriors were able to accomplish what Shaq said was never going to be done again.
O'Neal and Kobe Bryant three-peated with the Lakers. The Purple and Gold are the last team to win three straight championships in the NBA. The Warriors lost to the Toronto Raptors in the 2019 Finals in six games, so they were unable to three-peat.
Kerr and O'Neal have a close relationship. They used to work together at TNT. Let's see if Shaq wants to honor his word and kiss Kerr's feet, although the Warriors coach is probably going to pass on that.
