"NBA Overtime" is a weekly, thirty minute studio show that gives viewers a unique look at the life and times of some of the NBA's greatest players and coaches. Hosted by Bruce Beck, NBA Overtime airs year-round each Thursday from 6:00-6:30 p.m. ET.
Digging deep into the vast archives of NBA Entertainment, NBA Overtime profiles many of the NBA's most legendary figures, such as Isiah Thomas, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Wilt Chamberlain. Each show presents interviews with these greats from various times during their careers, to provide a sense of how they evolved through the decades. For example, the Charles Barkley show presents a look at Charles as a rookie with the Philadelphia 76ers, in his prime with the Phoenix Suns, as a member of the legendary 1992 Dream Team, and in the twilight of his career with the Houston Rockets, ending with the retirement of his jersey. In the span of just half an hour, NBA Overtime takes fans on a journey through each player's entire career, by providing his thoughts on the events that were happening at the time.
Each segment of the show is introduced and summarized by Beck, who provides a frame of reference by discussing what was going on in the life of the player and in the NBA as a whole, at the time the interview was shot.

Shaquille Rashaun O'Neal (born March 6, 1972), nicknamed "Shaq", is an American professional basketball player for the NBA's Boston Celtics. Standing 7 ft 1 in (2.16 m) tall and weighing 325 pounds (147 kg), he is one of the heaviest players ever to play in the NBA. Throughout his 18-year career, O'Neal has used his size and strength to overpower opponents for points and rebounds. After the retirement of Lindsey Hunter on March 5, 2010, O'Neal became the oldest active player in the NBA.
Following a standout career at Louisiana State University, O'Neal was drafted by the Orlando Magic with the first overall pick in the 1992 NBA Draft. He quickly became one of the top centers in the league, winning Rookie of the year in 1992--93 and later leading his team to the 1995 NBA Finals. After four years with the Magic, O'Neal signed as a free agent with the Los Angeles Lakers. He won three consecutive championships, playing alongside Kobe Bryant, in 2000, 2001, and 2002. O'Neal's relationship with Bryant eventually declined into a feud, leading to O'Neal's trade to the Miami Heat in 2004. He won his fourth NBA championship in 2006, but was traded midway through the season a year and a half later to the Phoenix Suns. After a season-and-a-half with the Suns, O'Neal was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he played alongside LeBron James in the 2009--10 season.
O'Neal's individual accolades include the 1999--00 MVP award, the 1992--93 NBA Rookie of the Year award, 15 All-Star game selections, three All-Star Game MVP awards, three Finals MVP awards, two scoring titles, 14 All-NBA team selections, and three NBA All-Defensive Team selections. He is one of only three players to win NBA MVP, All-Star game MVP and Finals MVP awards in the same year (2000); the other players are Willis Reed in 1970 and Michael Jordan in 1996 and 1998. He ranks 5th all-time in points scored, 6th in field goals, 12th in rebounds, and 7th in blocks.
