Charles Barkley says he didn't get personal with LeBron James criticism, but Shaquille O'Neal disagrees on TNT (videos)

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Charles Barkley took the opportunity Thursday to respond to LeBron James on TNT's Inside the NBA, arguing that he did not "get personal" with the four-time MVP, and that in his mind, the feud between the two is over.

But Barkley's studio teammate Shaquille O'Neal disagreed with his Hall of Fame counterpart, saying Barkley's initial criticism of James was, indeed, a personal shot.

Barkley and O'Neal, joined on set by host Ernie Johnson and analyst Kenny Smith, argued semantics of the feud that blew up Monday night when James snapped back at Barkley following a loss to Dallas.
