    Barkley hard carries that TNT crew.

    EJ and Kenny play off him well, but that whole show falls apart without him as the linchpin. Shaq isn't necessary.

    Thought he was retiring after his current deal?

    TNT >>> ESPN

    Good for him/them.

    Good for him. He didn't get paid that much as a player compared to everyone else after him.

    He earned this contract too.

    Shaq is actually good with the Tuesday crew (Candice Parker/ D Wade). On Thursdays he thinks he's the young "cool" guy and the tough guy and he talks over everyone. On Tuesday's Candice keeps him in check and Wade makes him feel old and out of touch. He's more of the goof ball role that he's actually good at.

    Are those Chuck's new pronouns ? :eek:

    Well deserved. Inside the NBA is by far the most entertaining NBA content, outside of the games themselves of course, aimed at a general audience. Chuck has been the heart of the show for years. Every comedy segment they do revolves around him. Happy for the big guy.

    Agree with most. Barkley makes that show. Love seeing him and shaq go at it. Loved the show before shaq.

    Barkley is going to make more money using his mouth than playing basketball.

    I’m sure kpj would not want to play for kPJ money in 1989, let alone 2015.

    I remember lots of amateur Rockets fans complaining that Charles called out the Rockets for not paying him $3 million
    But
    I’m sure they would be pissed off if McDonald’s forgot the toy in a happy meal they paid for
    Except this was $3 million dollars

    the funny part is that it was reported he was going to retire or do golf commentary for that Saudi group, then TNT said how about 100 mill?
