Charles Barkley said on @dpshow he might hire Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith and Shaquille O’Neal to his production company, Fine Line Productions, and go independent beginning in 2025-26.
A potentially huge win for NBA fans everywhere, if Barkley can make it happen. pic.twitter.com/VBC6V1WuUM – 12:20 PM

The Celtics got a big Game 1 win last night!
When Charles Barkley joined @TheFrankIsola and @Scalabrine he told the guys just how frustrated he was with the Indiana Pacers at the end of regulation.

You may have heard Inside the NBA’s Shaq, Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley, and Ernie Johnson react to “Euphoria” by Kendrick Lamar.
None of the @NBAonTNT audio programming happens by accident. This is how the music became yet another character on the show.

More on this storyline
Michael McCarthy: Charles Barkley also said WBD never should have told Wall Street they didn’t ‘need’ the NBA. That just pisssed off Adam Silver, he said. The Chuckster also wondered why TNT is buying CFP games — instead of using that money to retain the NBA? -via Twitter / May 23, 2024
Jimmy Traina: Charles Barkley went after WBD/TNT higher ups pretty good on @dpshow . If this plays out with TNT losing NBA after the following season, it will be absolutely fascinating to watch Barkley next season. The guy already DGAF. Imagine what he could be like on air next year knowing he’s done. -via Twitter / May 23, 2024
Michael McCarthy: Wow. With TNT on the brink of losing NBA, Charles Barkley just ripped his bosses as clowns and fools on the @DPshow . Sir Charles even floated the idea of hiring Shaq, Kenny and Ernie to his production company, then selling rights to ‘Inside the NBA’ to another network. -via Twitter / May 23, 2024
