Most NBA fans enjoy the comedic NBA after show – ‘Inside The NBA’ on TNT – just as much, if not more than the actual double-header games that TNT offers on Thursday night’s throughout the season. The show, which is composed of regulars Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith and the beloved Charles Barkley, has been a hit since hitting the air. It’s not so much the in depth analysis these ‘analysts’ provide, but rather the perfect mesh of ridiculousness and humor that has fans anticipating for each week’s segment. Chris Webber has made his occasional appearances on the show, as well as now current Houston Rockets head coach Kevin McHale. With McHale out of the picture, the team sought an additional body to take over the NBA legend’s absence. Enter the recently retired Shaquille O’Neal. The addition of Shaq fits in perfectly to the already hysterical bunch that has landed on set. As mentioned before, it’s not just the NBA talk that drives this show, and here are a few examples of just that. I’ll let the clips do the talking.
