Nightcap Hour 2: Charles Oakley Has BEEF With Patrick Ewing + Steph Curry PLANS to RECRUIT LeBron + Rockets INTRODUCE RETRO Uniforms + AJ Brown ADMITS to LEAKING Stories + Sports Illustrated’s BEST “Triplets” for 2026

**Shannon Sharpe** (0:00)
Charles Oakley now says he's beefing with his former teammate, Patrick Ewing. But Patrick, not to be a man enough to come and talk to me after having his back for 10 years, he's a coward. Nah, nah, nah. The last straw was when we was in Cleveland, and he knows I'm from Cleveland. He knew I was at the game, and he didn't speak to me. As many times as he's been to my mother's house, he can't speak to me? Nah, I'm drawing the line. I mean, I played with him for 10 years. He's just not a good person. He might make money, All-Star Dream Team, but that doesn't make you a good person. Lord have mercy.

**Chad Johnson** (0:34)
What's going on with you? Hey, Joe, that's your word.

**Shannon Sharpe** (0:37)
I don't know. I didn't know he had to be with Patrick Ewing. Because hell, if I didn't know he was going to be the topic, you know me, I'd have hit his ass up. Hell, I'd have got to come on the show.
Hell, I know it.

**Chad Johnson** (0:50)
Hey, Uncle Joe, we on the other side of the hill, man. We on the other side of the hill. We ain't got, we not supposed to be beefing at our age.
Not at our age. They got to fix that. They got to fix that, man.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (1:03)
I don't think you can fix it, Ocho.

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:06)
I'ma tell you, listen, I know Oak. Been knowing Oak 30 years.
Oak is the type of dude, if you cross him, it's over.

**Chad Johnson** (1:16)
Yeah, but that wasn't crossing him. He didn't speak to him. That's really nothing to be angry with.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (1:22)
Well, I think it's more to it than that, Ocho.

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:25)
Yes, I want to it than that.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (1:27)
That was just one incident. He probably pointed out, considering the fact that he's from Cleveland, was at the game.

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:33)
Yeah, you know I'm at the game, and you don't speak to me?

**Iso Joe Johnson** (1:36)
Yeah, but it's more that doesn't happen than just being in Cleveland. You know what I mean? That probably just took the icing off the cake. You feel me?

**Chad Johnson** (1:44)
Right, right.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (1:45)
Yeah.

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:47)
I wish I had known, because I'd have had Oak come over here and tell you what will happen.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (1:49)
It ain't too late.

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:52)
But it's, man, what the hell he is.
I'll report back to y'all when he tell me. He'll probably want to come over and tell you his damn self. So I don't misconstrue anything.

**Chad Johnson** (2:07)
Oak probably got a lot of pressure right now. He needs to get off his chest, the stuff with the Knicks at the Garden, James Dolan, now Patrick Ewing.
And he probably just need to release some stress, man. Like just let it all out. Ask Oak if you want to fight.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (2:23)
Fight who?

**Chad Johnson** (2:24)
Me.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (2:25)
Come on, man. Chill.

**Chad Johnson** (2:27)
Nah, I'm just.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (2:28)
Yeah, Oak, what about you?

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:29)
Yeah, he done chill now. I'm like bro, we got to chill.

**Chad Johnson** (2:33)
So he can release all that anger, man. And you can just use me as your punching bag and then let all bygones be bygones.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:43)
Oh man, look, like I said, when everybody tell the stories, what do they tell? Did anybody say, man, do step to Oak like Oak?
People don't realize how big, Oak don't have a basketball body. Oak got a football body. Oak strong.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (3:02)
Damn, listen.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:03)
Now I'm talking about physically, I'm talking about weight room strong. I'm talking about Oak's court strong. Oak is a strong, big ass man.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (3:13)
Hey, hey, and when he come by that business, he ain't gonna do a whole lot of damn talking.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:20)
He ain't gonna do no, he gonna ask you one time, you got my money?

**Iso Joe Johnson** (3:23)
Hey, hey, hey.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:26)
You either say, yeah, I got it. Or if you say, Kyle, before you say the Oak, no, he slapping the five footer.

**Iso Joe Johnson** (3:33)
Hey, hey, I been.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:35)
I'm telling you, I know him. Like I said, I've been knowing him 30 plus years.
If you borrow money from him and you're telling him you're going to give it back at a certain date, have that man money. Or go borrow the money that you borrowed from him, borrow from somebody else that you know came with you and you can pay them when you want to. Because if you owe him money, he's going to knock five footer.
