NOTHING should break up the NBA on TNT crew 

For sure an uncensored version of inside the nba would be the best

That won’t be worth their time( money). I think they all riding off into the sunset as Inside The NBA dies.

​@@michaelscottpapercompany6191they'd still make quite a bit of money doing podcasts, and I really don't think they care that much about TNTs money lol all of these dudes are wealthy

They could but they wont..lol

the problem is ernie said he’s never leaving tnt so it’s very complicated

Facts. I can guarantee you the second they lose Inside the NBA I will never have a reason to watch TNT ever again.

TNT will lose their NBA rights outright….. they’ll still cover NCAA, MLB, NHL. But Bringing back NBA on NBC will be way better anyway

NBA & AEW on TNT for me.

I'll simply never watch the NBA again. It's a terrible product as is, and now they wanna take the only good thing away that is offered through the regular season

😢😢😢😢

Just keep Ernie and Chuck, bring in Vince Carter and anybody else to replace the others.

Facts

@@azrielnguyen9586Ernie said he will never leave turner

Cappppp

​@@jordanlopez2670I wonder if he could work for both

Actually Discover is going to regret losing the nba. They said 2 years ago they didn’t need them (failed CEO). Then under bid for deal

Or maybe Warner bris should’ve matched nbc/amazon offers 🤷🏿‍♂️

Thing about it is, is that Warner Bros/Discover knew that the NBA was going to renegotiate the TV deals coming into this year and didn't want to offer the money necessary to keep TNT in the NBA market. Their network makes that kind of money because of Inside the NBA being apart of that network. And basically saying we will no longer justify paying 2.6 billion dollars a year to be the NBA "B" lineup anymore because it's too expensive for the new team that took TNT. What this does now is basically bury TNT after the end of the 2025 season when TNT is no longer associated with the NBA. Since cable networks as a whole, has been dying as well. It is unfortunate because it is a cutthroat business and sometimes institutional shows like Inside the NBA gets kicked in because of it. I however have a feeling, these guys all 3 or even Ernie himself will team up to do a podcast to just keep the continuity of those 4 brothers together because especially Ernie, but Kenny, Shaq and Charles has been an institution of the NBA for nearly 25 years now. Obviously Ernie started it all, but over the years get Kenny and Charles then Shaq, all 4 of those guys have made what Inside the NBA an institution to the sport. It's just sad to see that institution go when it makes its final live broadcast at the end of next year's conference finals last game.

Shaq becoming to sensitive , might ko chuckster 😂😂😂

No

Facts

Facts there’s no other production crew that’s laughing along with the hosts like Inside the NBA.

100%

Amazon can absorb it and re-brand it the same way they did with Top Gear and it has to be Amazon. That show is a bit too spicy for NBC.

Exactly! Ernie is a pro with the flow, and that production crew is obviously brilliant and brings the standard for effort.

I’d argue it’s a quartet, Ernie is crucial

@@Cornwall1888 Agreed. Quartet. If there's no Ernie, there's no balance.

@@Cornwall1888 I thought he was leaving Shaq off. Maybe have him as a recurring guest. He's the newbie and doesn't bring much basketball knowledge wise

@@cashjerseyblock2890bro what? Shaq been there for damn near 15 years lol. Pretty sure he knows what he’s talking about.

@@KD35Champ24facts, Shaq elevated the already great group, he was like adding hot sauce to soul food: AMAZING

It really does!!!!

Inside the nba was thrash

Same! As a South African I had no interest in basketball until I saw Inside the NBA. Im sure so many people outside the USA would say the same!

Me too!!! Inside the NBA stoked a love for basketball while I still lived in SA, a place where other than that, you would never see basketball on TV. From there it grew and grew and now its one of my favourite sports to watch. The reason the NBA got a bigger media deal in the US, despite losing viewership in the States, is for 2 reasons. 1 - Because its the most viewed sport of the the US sports globally, but 2 - It has a massive social media footprint. I imagine a lot of that is due to Ernie, Kenny Shaq and Chuck. The NBA is about to break apart their golden goose, I dont think they fully realise that yet.

Me too man! Even before ESPN started showing NBA games again on DSTV, Inside the NBA videos on YT was a staple for me to keep up to date on what's happening. The humour and analysis is unmatched, I really hope they don't end this show😢

I'm also from South Africa just love the show. I will miss them. I even tell the people at work about the jokes and basketball.

I’m from South Africa Cape Town. I’ve been watching basketball tv for 4 years and I’m 23😂

You think Shaq and Chuck actually watch the games lol. Tim Legler is actually the best analyst on tv.

⁠@@marvymarv959Whatever who cares if they aren’t the best analysts they are a Emmy award winning show that entertain so many people.

@@marvymarv959 lets be real. we call them analyst just cause it's their official job title but real ones know that the TNT crew is so much more than that. they're pure entertainment and unapologetic about it and that's what makes them great. Emmy-winning great.

It's really going to be difficult to lose that show!!!!

​@@marvymarv959 I agree with you that Tim Legler is the best analyst

Disney will start putting up channels with commercials.Watch.lol

Cut the cord ✂️

Haven’t had cable in almost 9 years

Cable been finished bro

Cry

Blame Warner bros They are the ones that either didn’t want a contract with the nba, or didn’t give them as good of an offer as Amazon and nbc

It's literally Turner's fault for not matching NBC's offer

Turner isn't as big as the others... sadly

It's not, but again Warner Bros/Discover is who owns TNT, the blame goes on them, not Turner for not keeping the NBA deal. They are the ones that didn't budge paying for that TV deal, Warner/Discover had the capability to pay that 2.6 bil deal easy... The CEO is who said they weren't so. It's kinda sad because TNT and ABC is who ended up ultimately dethroned CBS and NBC from the NBA in the 90s and 2000s so go figure.

😂😂shame on the NBA for making money as a business?? Stop. Blame the CEO of Discover for being cheap and stubborn.

Truly more than family 😂😂. They don't even know who you are

Than talk to turner.

Stupid rights aka billions of dollars. Say it like it is. Money speaks

@@lordfriezachrist6546I get what you are saying but it’s an entertainment

You’re going too far now lol

They're too focused on dollars and cents

What is the NBA thinking? Someone else paid more for the rights, do you even understand how that all works or just enjoy throwing words around?

Might explain why they finally gave him an award he should've had YEARS ago the other night

Especially when he asked Chuck about the final score of a game and chuck start talking about everytime but the game😂had ernie mad asf

maybe that played a part in Turner not matching the offer

@@KumasiHazeDo you know how many Emmy’s the show and Ernie has? This is not the first.

@@kimking5928 yea, i was wrong.

The NBA would lose a lot of views man. It would be a mass exodus if they destroy that crew.

Exactly. I wish they'd cover the finals

Same unless the Finals have two exciting teams but generally I’ll tune out once TNT is done

Are u Deaf Ernie been with TNT since the 80s

Ernie is most likely going to stay w/ Turner bc he also works for TBS during the MLB season. NBC may have their own in-house sports people also so it's going to be hard. If Amazon gets the rights, then they could most likely make an offer for Shaq, Kenny, and Chuck but Ernie would most likely stay w/ TNT/ TBS.

@@kawaiiafangirlUnless Dr. J steps in to be host, no other replacement for Ernie is going to get the respect from Shaq, Chuck and Kenny. Those boys always put the Godfather’s fill-in on the BBQ whenever he’s out.

NBC doesn't run a tight ship the same way as TNT does. I'm not a fan of cable but there's something to be said for all the production crew old timers who really know what they're doing. The whole reason inside the NBA works is cuz there's a dozen dudes behind the cameras loaded up with the graphics clips audio and props to really help illustrate the fellas conversation. Go watch Sunday night football or a Notre Dame Saturday game. Plain studios with loads of dead air.

Yep. All four must stay. PERIOD!!!!

Preach

Please bring NBA on NBC back with the TNT Crew

Erine ain't leaving tnt for nbc

@@Mittens5044 if the 💰 right he will

@@chaunseybillings5381that could mean Nbc and ABC will broadcast the nba finals by Rotation basis similar how tnt and cbs does it with the ncaa final four

@@chaunseybillings5381he said himself he’s not leaving.

Fox nfl whatever is like junior varsity compared to TNT.. you crazy

Fox NFL Sunday crew is wild corny

@@grinchoi1nfl on nbc seems boring since costas and Al Michaels left

No love from this fool when talking about Luka lmao

Inside the NBA are so far ahead of everyone, that they have no real competition. Ex: All the other NBA media has to create Hot topics like MJ vs LeBron or compare young players to Legends. They do this to lure in the views. While Inside The NBA will just go off on random stuffs, San Antonio Women, half a tank of gas, or have people randomly beat Kenny to the board.

Ernie is not leaving TNT and the show is not the same without him. So one way or another it's over

they would need to bring in the production crew as well for it to work….and if Ernie is staying/retiring, at least try to bring in and mold someone like Lefkoe into that role like TNT was trying to do

You don't understand that people might be upset over losing their favorite show? Are you a robot?

@@maxmeyers5630 Has to be.

Your comment makes no sense. TNT is Inside the NBA. Good riddance. NBA on NBC is coming back with the 90’s feel again 🔥🔥🔥

​@@Richking213 That's what he's saying

There’s always “The Shawshank Redemption”

So true. That’s the only reason why I pay for my subscription is to watch NBA on TNT. Personally, I will be canceling it after next season if they don’t renew their nba deal

@@galiojusticejustice3191 TNT isn’t just the NBA… they cover other sports too.

Sadly tnt is broke

@GregH-bf2ml !?

Mate that phrase has been used for decades in plenty of other places across the world lmaoo that isn’t a Texas saying I’m afraid

OKAY. ALLOW HIM TO RETIRE AND KEEP THE REMAINING CREW. YOU'RE TALKING AS IF PEOPLE TUNE IN TO WATCH HIM. MOST DON'T.

@@AnthonyMercado-1988 AGAIN. HE CAN RETIRE AND MOVE THE FUK ON AN SR CHARLES - SHAQ AND THE JET NEED TO STAY.

@@user-ck9cd4kf9fNah it just wouldn’t be the same

🤣

Damn there are ppl like u that acc think this about him? I feel sorry for y’all 💀💀

Just not the same

C-Webb is horrible

DRAYMOND WILL PLACE THAT SHOW IN A GRAVE.

Well draymond is still a nba player, but when he retires he shouldn't be on TV dude is boring

Every man does not need to agree with every man. That’s a fallacy in our society. Kyrie says wild thing we all do not agree with. He is no messiah for refusing the jab. Stephen a is no devil for thinking he should have taken it. We know good and bad people . This is sports it’s mad trivial. Internet people get so emotional ally invested in these people and worship celebrities. He’s a regular man from queens nyc that Phuks up like we all do. He’s no puff daddy sheesh

⁠this is way over your head. Disagreeing is normal but the public demonization was despicable. You might want to go back and do your research and historical homework, I understand social media has given people the attention span of a goldfish by design, and causes people the inability to comprehend what they read. No one said anything what you wrote. Wake up and grow up.

No, he cant. Half of their jobs involve making fun of Kenny. He also instigates Chuck a lot of times that make Chuck go off. He is an important part of the show
