I'm back GB.

‘Inside the NBA’ crew will do broadcast during All-Star Game

Read on Twitter


Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal and Kenny Smith will do an alternate call of the game on TBS.

(AP) — For those who have wondered what Turner Sports’ “Inside the NBA” crew is like while they are watching a game, they finally get their chance to find out during this weekend’s All-Star Game.

Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal and Kenny Smith will be doing “Inside the All-Star Game” on Sunday. The alternate broadcast will air on TBS while TNT has the traditional feed with Kevin Harlan, Reggie Miller and Dwyane Wade.

Johnson said Tuesday that the intent is to react to the game and tell stories, but that it remains a blank canvas as far as how things progress.

“I’m not exactly sure what it’s gonna look like. I don’t know what kind of rabbit holes these guys are gonna go down in the course of that broadcast and what they’re going to bring up. And that is the beauty of it,” Johnson said. “I think it’s gonna be a blast. The possibilities of what’s discussed and what stories are told is kind of unlimited. And that’s frightening and exciting at the same time.”

I thought you were exaggerating. I've heard of a few more, but not a ton.

Like, really:

I know Ranveer Singh (can't stand the dude though). Second time a Bollywood star joins the fray.

Abhishek Bachchan played in the 2015 game.

I'll watch some of the All Star Game and Rising Stars game I'm sure, but man if there is a lack of appealing talent in every other event. We're really rolling out the C list for Cleveland this weekend ay.

I still cant believe Wiggins is an all-star starter. Averaging 17 points and 4 rebounds a game. NBA has to change the rules going forward.

They did change the rules ... they gave the players and the media a share of the vote and Wiggins still made the cut.

Im just here to watch Boobie Gibson rain 3s in the celeb game.

Also, can we get MGK out of here and actually replace him with a better Cleveland rapper(s) like Kid Cudi or Bone Thugs? I am so sick of seeing that dudes face.

So I guess Lavine is playing? He had a knee exam just a couple days ago, and it reportedly went well. But I gotta think he's still feeling pain if they even examined it. He's missed the last 3 games and 10 total due to knee soreness so I'm kinda surprised he is playing and the Bulls are cool with it.
Gonna miss KP but he's no Georges Niang.

If he didn't play, he would get a ton of hate for not giving up a spot for a healthy player.
