    I expect Clutchfans to react to not just tnt
    They react to Anything

    if they had a squirrel picking the nba champ by logos on acorns, and it didn’t pick the a Rockets acorn, Clutchfans would have a 12 page discussion on it

    It’s nothing personal against the OP but I’m personally sick of everyone whining about national media coverage. Harden is absolutely underrated by many but that’s not going to change any time soon. People just don’t like watching him play and that’s fine they’re entitled to their opinion.

    There was a time here that there was a new Max Kellerman thread literally on a daily basis...at least they’ve progressed to going after TNT.

    The crew on TNT are meant to be funny/fun...you’ve got to take it for what it’s worth.

    Television is based on ratings
    They are ran by corporations

    it does not matter what the programming is
    News, sports, reality, dance shows

    none of it matters . Ratings = money
    You are a rare person who understands this
    I commend you

    No one watches this show for intellectual stuff or a educated analysis of the games but more for a good laugh

    They only say that because WB played extremely well before the pandemic.

    Now Bubble WB was only at roughly 80 percent.

    The whole team especially Ben Mac and Jeff made up for that.

    Barkley was trolling, Kenny was serious, that is the difference.

    barkley is a gambler-holic, He went broke at the casino owing markers all over vegas and probably still owes money to jordan in golf.

    Also, nobody has to watch these shows.
    I don't watch First Take everyday like these addicts or Skip or Colin.
    And if I do, it's because they have some guests on .
    It's ALL ENTERTAINMENT.


    Clutchfans is just a bunch of fish who bite on TV shows all day
    Kenny and Charles have been on TNT now longer than the ages of the posters who complain

    This is Clyde Drexler when he's not on the Rockets payroll talking



    You see how he's not being a homer??

    That's not in the job description

    it's not in the job description on TNT to pander to your former team(s)

    Only superior intellects like

    And you'd be there to add to it, discussing it with them or telling them how stupid they are discussing it.

    Not like anything we talk about here is exactly high value. It's all nonsense, and 95% is subjective or speculative.

    ... That said, it is annoying when people give professional trolls or obvious morons the attention that these networks are clearly hoping for. Chuck, Shaq, and Cowherd don't have jobs because of their intense understanding of basketball, analystics, and ability to articulate meaningful commentary.

    I'm here to be a 99er.
    @Will

    Which to me, is being a superior rockets fan on a site that was created for me when the creator asked for superior fans and we came.

    Exactly. No one would watch if they were saying James Harden is AMAZING AND THEY ARE GOING TO SWEEP THE THUNDER like everyone on this board wants them to do. Personally, I find the TNT broadcast entertaining but of course I don't take anything they say seriously.

    I was in Colombia back in Feb prior to the travel shutdown and they only had two channels in English...Fox News and CNN. So I decided to watch both for an hour before bed one night just to see how ridiculous they were and how they can shape the same story to have such a different take. What I found was they were pretty much reality TV with ridiculous takes, which sums up what this country likes to watch and brings in the ratings/$$$. People complaining about the TNT broadcast are the same people who don't understand why our current president is Donald Trump, a reality TV star...

    They knew he was a misogynistic Reality TV star before his election. :)

    You see him in pictures with Epstein, a pedo bear.

    Kenny is one of those dudes that sounds really smart when you hear him talking...... but when you really listen, you realize he has do depth to what he is saying, he just sounds bright.

    This. TNT is for the casual fan and those that just want to be entertained..... Shaq, Kenny and even Chuck don't take it serious, so fans shouldn't either.

    The worst thing that can happen to a show
    Is when nobody is watching it
    That’s how crap gets cancelled

    everybody talks about Barkley
    Even rival networks have him on their show
