Rest in Piss to casual babble and c00nery

Gotdamn, these Inside The NBA nostalgists about to be watching show loops on YouTube with the tissue out

Shaq and Chuck are larger than life and recognizable faces. They definitely got more people to watch overall.

I think this is a W for purists, but will hurt the presence the sport has on popular culture in the long run.

The banter between Chuck and Shaq was actually great TV, especially for casuals. I know people who know nothing about basketball (mainly women) who thought their exchanges were entertaining.

Shaq and Chuck will be bullshytin together on another channel. Ernie may not be there and maybe the chemistry won't be the same with different producers and staff but I'd be amazed if we don't see most of them reunited on NBC or Amazon.

Ernie has said he is a lifer and not leaving Turner, so he'll be there.

These deals are only good if the Finals come off of ABC/ESPN.

They lost the NBA, getting CFP is another way for them to try to create valve for TNT because the won't be getting advertiser like they did with the NBA.

Looks like it's just sublicensing by ESPN. So TNT will just air the games but won't produce anything. ESPN making money off of their own content.

With the NFL bullying College football on the College playoffs, minus well

Barkley and to a degree Shaq has produced the most c00n babble
