I hate we won't see that crew together anymore. Charles and Shaq together was just classic and the whole crew had a bond that you can't fake. It won't be the same energy with anyone else.
Amazon taking over sports means soon we will all be paying premiums for live events, and soon enough even more so for playoff and championship games. It’s just pure corporate greed.
But when has Amazon ever felt like we're paying a premium? I mean compared to everything else? And the twitch connection is interesting for sports especially for live reactions.
Amazon in this case is giving yall the best value but because of Jeff Bezos goofy ass character you think that they would screw the consumer worse than TNT/Warner Discovery already is.
Meh, they were good for their time but new age is here. Gil's Arena is like the modern day version and they do big numbers on YT. The old man humor was great on Inside the NBA but from what I heard they really don't even watch the games. The fun was just them goofing around and pranking eachother. I'd say heated debates have taken over. Same with first take and undisputed. Those guys can't say what they really want to because they have to be super professional on TV.
Joe doesn't know the history. They had Ernie and Kenny then had to go out and get Charles an Shaq. Charles and Shaq made the show. Ernie and Kenny compliment those two.
The NBA looking at this as, if they want to give us the cash cool. Amazon is the one not looking at this through the right lens. They must not be paying attention that it was the Inside guys who made the show not the show it's self. Now if they just wanted to spend money ok but somebody don't know their business. If they did, they might have came out cheaper trying to get the people, not the show.
@@whattheywontsayiwillsay nope and it don’t matter what you highly doubt he signed a 10 yr 210 million contract last year this is a easy fact to look up 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
I’m more interested to see what are the new networks putting together. Especially with a bunch of players thriving on podcasts. You could build great things with those retired players.
Honestly its already starting to become saturated. Not to mention a lot of those guys don't have entertaining personalities and miss the entertainment aspect. Imo Lebron's Shop and the one he did w/ reddick were boring asf.
The wild part about all of this is the nba only gave tnt a chance to match because of the tnt panel that’s how much likability that crew has😂😂😂😂 other than that it would have been see you never
Gonna miss the races to the board between Kenny & Shaq. Gonna make Shaqtin a fool, EJ's Neat-O Stat of the Night. Sad times. Also iono about Joe's take on as long as 2 of the Inside the NBA crew is there, you can build around it. We have already seen them mix and match different players, different personalities and it's not the same, not even in the same realm as the current group.
It was a business move. People don't be watching tv like they use to. Streaming services have officially taken over. I will miss inside the nba but from a business perspective its a good move
I don't know anyone with a cable box. We are moving away from that. In the modern era, we turn on our TV and instantly open a streaming app using a smart TV, roku, firestick, etc.
TNT had the same exclusivity window to negotiate as ESPN/ABC. At the time the WBD/TNT CEO said, “we don’t need the NBA… “. They let the window expire. They are only suing to have Amazon or NBC take over a year earlier so WBD can save $1.5 billion. Also, Amazon uses the entire NBC studio team and producers/cameramen to do NFL. They hired the entire team from Showtime to do Boxing. Announcers and all. They will hire entire out of work TNT team to do NBA. Those behind cameras and in front.
Old Charles has no clue but exactly. TNT failed to submit their matching offer in the time frame and did say they don't need NBA basketball. Now the boo hoo hooing, gtfoh TNT.
@@JTMcCoy-kz8bn what’s the joke? UA-cam is freely accessible with the internet. TNT isn’t a basic cable channel, not to mention the amount of people that don’t have cable anymore.
Ernie is from GA went to UGA , his pops played for the Braves back in the day. He has deep roots in the Atlanta area and it might not be worth it to move to wherever the pre game show is being taped.
Like all fans, I will miss Inside the NBA. But Charles is not telling the entire story. Everybody should go listen to his interview with Dan Patrick. TNT knew they may lose the rights and the head of the Network basically said they did not need the NBA to survive. They waited til the last minute to make an offer after the initial agreement with NBC/ESPN/Amazon had already been made. TNT came in at the last minute matching Amazon and the NBA denied it. Charles is looking at it from the media side and not a player, like he used to be. The NBA has to do what’s best for the business because of the contracts these players are getting. Charles would be singing a different tune if he was still a player. He said in the interview that TNT signed him to a 10 year contract worth 210 million and he is on 3-4 years into it. But said he will not give any of it back because TNT messed up. So yes, it is about the money. Nobody watches TNT, let’s be honest.
They don't have full understanding of the situation. They forgot to mention ESPN/ABC got the A package NBCgot the B and Amazon got the C package. Streaming is not the future, it's the present, cable viewership is down, that's why they went with NBC which is on broadcast TV as well as ABC. Berkeley is on year 3 of an 11 year contract worth 210 million. More to it, but theres some additional context
Hearing the new cast of the jbp act like ppl won't stay with a show if they replace guys that we grew to love, and how it wouldn't be the same, etc. is hilarious bc that's exactly what happened on this show.. you are saying exactly what all the fans said when Rory and mal were no longer a part of the pod The same concern that you have of the show not being the same in the chemistry not being the same is the exact concern the original JBP podcast fans had when ish and ice first showed up and then when flip showed up.. Joe had foresight then, NBA might have it too.. just saying it was interesting that ppl who replaced other people on a show, are against "replacing ppl on shows"
NBA on TNT mid segment always starts either with Shaq laughing on something Chuck said earlier or some other off screen jokes they be laughing at.. what a sad day for NBA fans
NBA kicking out the Best NBA show the show that got the best ratings for NBA games on them nights is crazy. They think they to big for TNT but thats kicking out fans. Not all fans will PAY more for more Streaming stuff. Lot of Inside the NBA fans not NBA fans and watch for the show and kinda watch games. Now they won't be doing either.
Not Ice thinking you need a cable box to watch Cable tv? UA-cam TV exists, Hulu has live TV... Google TV is a whole thing. Didnt he show up with them apple goggles? He don't know this?
Just like NBA rather took the bag from those with bigger bags Chuck will do the same when he sees the size of the bag. And yes. That might have been what she said too.
Idk if Ernie is just playing around or if he is truly honest on him not working for any other network when he could easily work for 2 different ones in different sports. But let’s be honest there were many years left on that show anyways. Chuck can barely stay wake, Ernie looks putting loads of effort to keep up and Shaq might be fun but he depends on the rest more than people think.
"Not having a cable box" is a pretty prevalent status now a days guys ...get it together old guys. Most are using internet and streaming services ..for EVERYTHING ...A lot of people NO LONGER USE these cable boxes any more. LOL
Charles saying it sucks when they choose money over the fans is kinda hypocritical since that's also what he did when it came to him being in the nba 2k games lmao
I’m going to be real with you… as an AVID NBA FAN…. I do not give a shit if they air on Amazon or TNT I will say airing on Amazon makes my life easier if I didn’t already have the NBA pass… so TNT speaking for all fans is a little ridiculous cause “nigga we don’t give a F” we just wanna watch and we wanna know where to watch
Ernie is one of chuck's best friends and has been at TNT for like 30 years. I'm pretty sure Ernie and Chuck will just continue to do their podcast and not go to another network for an nba show.
TNT streaming is horrible, AMAZON was a no brainer. TNT should enhanced their stream service and gotten more subscribers. All they play is old movies allday and wrestling.
Barkley already Makin 20mil by himself hes demanding of course more, Ernie isn't going anywhere hes Sports TNT in and out...yall need to do more research 🤷🏽♂️
Let’s stop being a sore loser. TNT is poorly managed to the point they not only lose money but they missed the timeline to make their proposal then the timeline to match offers. That itself is enough for NBA to not wanting business with them. Then if you have competitors willing to pay you more, not why take it? They are putting more money on giving the fans a better experience.

We still got another year tho

Honestly the show was fine without Shaq
And honestly you don’t know the history…for starters it’s Ernie’s creation
@@Zeus0886 yeah shaq was a solid extra but wasn't a game changer like chuck.
@JTMcCoy-kz8bn It's always somebody that doesn't hear good. Joe wants two. I don't care who created it.
Yea Joe is off
Games on tnt just look better. Ernie not goin anywhere tho. Hes a lifer
NBA is wrong for that. Inside the NBA brought alot of viewers that don't even watch basketball.
Yep, I was one of those people 😂😂
They can still have them guys talk about hockey lol go tune into that
"Barkley's mouth is wild", is WILD lmao

Definitely an end of an era and one that will be missed!
Yall missed the chance to discuss what players combo could make a brand new show as good as the old one.

Yeah the NBA ok NBC intro was suspenseful af😂
The NBA and its owners was like: listen TNT, we done with the 90s bro.😂
So let's get with NBC again and go back to the 80s? 🤔
This is facts! I refuse to get cable and haven’t for a decade now. I have my streaming services and UA-cam..all I need

I'm in the minority also because we let our cable go years ago.
I get the joke but you have UA-cam …. Just say you was not interested to begin or end with
Yeah Gil's arena is available like 4 times a week and uncensored NBA talk. Its pretty damn entertaining, more than TNT imo.
@@JTMcCoy-kz8bn what’s the joke? UA-cam is freely accessible with the internet. TNT isn’t a basic cable channel, not to mention the amount of people that don’t have cable anymore.

Ernie is from GA went to UGA , his pops played for the Braves back in the day. He has deep roots in the Atlanta area and it might not be worth it to move to wherever the pre game show is being taped.
“You’re in the minority.” No Ish you’re just old. I don’t know anyone under 50 with a cable box at all. Everyone streams
I don’t have any cable boxes either 😂
9:41 Ernie ain’t enough Joe. Shaq and Barkley are the draw.
