:biggums: Am I the only one that thought Barkley said he was done with that job? He's been saying that all year that he'd like to move on to other things.
Anyways I find the group entertaining and Charles is an important piece so I'm not complaining that he signed a new multi-year deal, just surprised.
:facepalm
Kenny needs to be replaced

:oldlol: More like Shaq with his big boring mouth. I actually like Kenny.
I'm sure Charles changed his mind after he saw the dollar amount on the deal.
I am dismayed that Shaq was extended. He destroyed that show. I used to record it even after games I didn't care to watch. Now I don't usually bother and just watch the press confs instead.
Shaq still on there :facepalm
They gotta move on from him.. and Kenny, he's been bothering me too much lately.
EJ, Chuck, C-Webb, GP, Kobe.... :bowdown:
Shaq......

I personally never liked the entire TNT crew. They do way too much yapping and joking and not enough analysis. I was hoping for a new crew. The ABC/ESPN crew of Sage, Bill (in the past), Doug and Jalen were infinitely better.

what? he's the only real analyst on that show and his analyses are pretty good

cringe
TNT crew >>>>>>>>>>> ESPN crew
Replace Shaq with Reggie Miller and it would be perfect.

Not to me. I can't stand the TNT crew. They are straight up annoying.
New TV format idea:
Shaq and Barkley debate face-off against Stephen A Smith and Skip Bayless.
Two sensitive retired all-time greats vs two insensitive basketball trolls that think "wanting it more" is what wins basketball games.
Who gets the first punch thrown at them Smith or Bayless :lol
replace shaq with kobe and kenny with webber
LOL at this from that article:
"O’Neal joined the studio show in 2011 following a 19-year NBA career and his first few years on Inside the NBA were, to be generous, a work in progress. But O’Neal has improved yearly, [B]and one of his best qualities is his ability to make fun of himself.[/B] "
LOL wtf...Shaq has no ability to make fun of himself at all...he takes things way too personal (the latest example was with the hack-a-shaq discussions) and is like a giant baby. And his comebacks are always the same thing...he asks Barkley how many rings he has.

That's the whole idea maybe? Mix having fun with basketball. The producers obviously like the numbers they're bringing back to want them to continue.

Shaq's my favorite, followed by Kenny.
Chuck needs to be replaced, he's a retard, can't speak and is not very intelligent at analyzing the game of basketball

That is how you negotiate.

Best news of the playoffs. :banana:
Honestly to me this is the best talk/show on tv.
It's gonna be a sad day when Chuck actually retire. When that happen they should bring in a whole new crew.
I wonder what the dollars looks like. I read Simmons was getting 5 mil, but he did a bunch of stuff other than just TV
Can we trade Shaq for CWebb please? :confusedshrug:
Should have signed GP and paired him with Webber. GOAT analyst duo
Guys TNT does not need to get rid of Shaq, the solution to the Shaq "problem" is obvious.
Hire Bill Simmons to be his bitch. Than the dynamic changes so you've got Ernie the host, Kenny the voice of reason, Chuck for the laughs, and Shaq the bully can still keep his act of bullying he'll just divert it on Simmons. Simmons as the butt of Shaqs pranks instead of Chuck alleviates the tension that was created when he came on board. I think we can all agree, Shaq constantly pranking and pushing Bill Simmons around would restore the peace between Shaq and Chuck and be highly entertaining to watch for not just us, but the whole TNT crew.

Congrats. All your opinions from now on are invalid.
I'm shocked Shaq and Chuck are sticking together for more than another year.
Expecting a feud/blowout at the level of Kobe/Shaq tbh.
I only give enough of a f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]ck to say I don't give a f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]ck.
I dont understand the Shaq thing. Dont they poll viewer opinions?? Or at least have the executives wach the show once in a while?
The feedback seems overwhelming that viewers prefer the show without Shaq. Why would they extend him multiple years?

Im pretty sure Barkley has an out that would allow him to pursue other things if they come up.

Get rid of Shaq and bring in Webber. Get rid of Kenny and bring in Payton. Barkley is such a joke that he needs to stay.
[QUOTE=JimmyMcAdocious]Congrats. All your opinions from now on are invalid.[/QUOTE]
Like I care. The TNT crew has always been annoying to me. They just joke around too much and most of what Chuck saids are dead wrong. The only decent analyst is Kenny and even he has his biases.
I like Doug and Jalen much better. And when Simmons was there with Jalen, it was better. Say what you will about Simmons but the guy gets it.
Shaq should be replaced by Isiah Thomas.
Replace Shaq w/ Kobe.
