BOSTON (CBS) -- The Celtics' performance in the first half of Game 5 vs. Cleveland was not the ugliest thing in the building on Thursday night. Not by a long shot.

That honor belonged to one Shaquille O'Neal, the Hall of Fame player who was at the TD Garden as a part of TNT's broadcast crew.

It was gross.

Like, really gross.

As a warning, you should probably not scroll down unless you have a strong stomach.

Here goes nothing.

Former teammate Kevin Garnett -- who's seen some things in his day -- had to get in on the reaction, too.

Of course, Shaq did play in the NBA at 7-foot-1, 325 pounds. He played in more than 1,400 games, which amounted to more than 50,000 minutes on the court. So there was bound to be some residual damage.
