    Award-winning basketball studio show Inside the NBA alongside
    Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley, and Ernie Johnson
    - Enticing NBA front office roles he's received offers for and why he turned
    them down
    - If he's ever successfully mended the fences between his friends Barkley
    and Michael Jordan
    Plus, Smith also tells Ariel who he thinks will win the NBA Finals this season. Kenny Smith is a former NBA player who currently serves as a co-host for the award-winning TV show, Inside the NBA.

    Ariel why u not get this guy on zoom did he not know how to set that up?? You have never had to do an audio interview on the mma hour. Atleast not in the past few years. Experience is not the same watching a still video of his milk dud head.

      @C Hoffmann That's a stupid comment, and it's a good thing Black people don't settle or that dirt bag would be free on the streets like other cops prior.
