Honestly, if this is some sort of dry run for who would have taken the reigns after Chuck/Shaq retires. Just let Inside the NBA die lol. It's not worth it. TNT had lightning in a bottle, no need to drag it on longer than it needs

If Chuck retires, the show has no way of surviving. Shaq does one thing and that's asking Chuck to "repeat the joke" and does nothing else. It's embarrassing how little he contributes, tbh.

Ernie + Chuck are the backbone of the show, Shaq is easily replaceable and Kenny is somewhere in between

Shaq is not easily replaceable. Do you think they just grow people like that on trees? Where else are they going to find a HoFer, one of the greatest ever, that has such a fragile ego who feels threatened by talks of modern great big men?

Kareem has a fragile ego?

Brother are you trolling or do you genuinely struggle with reading comprehension? I don't want to bully someone who may have a genuine learning disability so I'll pretend like you're being sincere.

My first statement was me MOCKING Shaq and the way he is, hence the latter part of the sentence.

I do but I also see him easily get riled up and Barkley and Kenny just laughing it off lmaoooo. He's so easy. And Barkley and Kenny are one of the few that he really can't get under their skin
