fukk TNT and fukk Barkley.

Other than jokes, their coverage isn’t good and the biggest fans of Inside the NBA are people who don’t like NBA or basketball in general. Barkley admits he doesn’t watch games.

And hasn’t Barkley been talking retirement for like 5 years now? Well, you finally got your wish, fakkit.

I can understand the attachment from the standpoint of there’s a whole generation of NBA fans that have never known an NBA that didn’t have games on TNT with Inside the NBA, similar to how there’s people who 20 years later still couldn’t let go of NBA on NBC

But in the grand scheme, the league will be fine.

I grew up without cable, going to my grandparents house watching NBA on TNT was fun and cool but disappointing.

Because of TNT I had to watch the NBA only on the weekends or when they come on the finals. Fukk Cable TV

It's funny that you guys think these prices are staying the same after billions were spent on content

My grandmoms paying 200 a month on Comcast for Cable TV. Unless Amazon prime (only $140 a year) is going to 75 a month I’m fine with their little increase.

Retirement is a very old negotiation tactic. Howard Stern was 'retiring' from radio back in 1990


He's gonna be doing NBA coverage in 2025, I'd bet the mortgage money on it

It's already been proven... so all you are doing is ignoring facts for reasons..... ?

There wouldve been no difference money wise. WBD was matching the Amazon deal. NBA rejected it.

So TNT should be happy that they’re not entangled in a money pit and never wanted the NBA back to begin with since it’s such bad business arrangement correct?


I mean their stockholders feel the same way …..right?

And you better believe his fatass is going to the highest bidder …while simultaneously trying to browbeat the league and the players for doing the same ….. he’s an insufferable clown
