Charles communicates like my 84 year old mom. Says whatever he wants and says the same thing over and over and over again and makes it sounds like he is saying it for the first time. 😂😅
In the past he NBA season ended in April and the MLB season started. Now the 2-month marathon playoff ends a few days before the Draft in July. NBA season should be shortened to 58-games. (Home & Away). No play-in games!
FR. Only guy that is not afraid to keep it brutally honest..Doesn't mean he's always right but he doesn't hold back. Charles is the celebrity I'd want to get a beer with.
3 point shooting has made the NBA one-dimensional....miss the old days where teams mixed up their offense. Players like Shaq, Hakeem, Charles Oakley made the paint battles fun and entertaining. NBA basketball is just a mess right now
Hey, think of this: 3 point shots made in first 3 quarters only count as 2 points, but count as 3 or even 4 points in 4th quarter. I don't know how much that would change the game, but teams trailing in 4th quarter can attempt all the 3's they want to get back into the game. Love Charles as a guest and I'm with him, I don't even watch the NBA until playoffs
Capping the number of 3 attempts won't work. You can't have players thinking if they should take a 3 or not and have to process how many attempts they have left during the flow of the game.
Again the problem with the NBA isn’t the play style, it isn’t load management, they don’t need to change the rules. The problem is there is no young superstar on the level of a Bird, Magic, MJ, Shaq, Kobe, LeBron, Steph. Nobody under 30 is on that level. The only way to ensure the success of the league is to find the next face of the league. Take LeBron and Steph out… who is that guy? Giannis? Jokic? Luka? None of those guys move the needle.
I went to my first NFL game this year. It was a incredible experience. I paid a little over $2k for 4 tickets with a great view. To go to an NBA game with good seats will cost me about $2k for one decent seat. How about making the games more affordable. Shooting 3's is not the issue alone.
Are you crazy? Where u trying to sit, only courtside for the Lakers?!? I took my 15yr old son to multiple Pacers games last year. We sat a little lower than halfway up the stands, second level. I'm guessing it was 30-40 rows off the floor. Great sight lines, dead middle of the court & the tix were like 125-200 each. The Celtics were actually slightly cheaper than the Bucks tix, I bought ticket master verifiable resale. The only way a single ticket is 2k is if you're trying for courtside or first 3-5 rows. Also, we went to a Colts game & we sat in the corner of the end zone. It was like 110-150/each for around the 7th-8th row. If you're paying 2k for any tix you're either going for the 50 yard line in the first 5 rows or NBA courtside
The highlight of the Showdown was Chuck. He had the best one liners. Other than that, it was a borefest. Dan wrote a check he can’t cash telling Chuck he can make 8 of 10 free throws so when Chuck calls him out, his defense is to attack Chucks FT record.
Don’t know why they don’t start on Christmas. I actually watched all the playoffs the post Covid year. Playoffs in July is awesome because nothing else is on.
The game thrived on athleticism for years, Dunks acrobatic moves….thats been practically deleted to where a freak like A Edwards rather take 3s then drive….thats why players like JA stand out because they resemble what this game uses to be about! Bring back dunks and post moves
The game is a 3 point contest. Two wild ideas: 1. Limit 3 pointers (i.e. last 5 min of each quarter). 2. Widen & lengthen the court, and then move the 3 point line back 2 feet.
Too many threes is only one of the many problems the nba has...lack of effort(especially defensively), load management, too many games, back to back games, too many teams, gambling aspect, players really not caring and only worried about getting a big paycheck ie Paul George.
Did anyone notice the following about today's NBA? The more the players earn, the less they play. The Raptors are near the bottom of the East Standings and yet the home ticket prices are out of reach for most due to crazy salaries. There were hundreds if not thousands of empty seats for their home game vs Chicago Bulls this past Monday.
It'll never happen because it would skew all the stats and records, but the simplest fix is to shrink the rim's diameter by an inch or so. Threes would be harder, strategies would shift.
The NBA use to be all about sports...with Dr J, Magic, Bird, Jordan, the Bad Boys of Detroit...you enjoyed watching the physicality and finese of the sport...it wasn't a cushy league..they played all "balls out!" NOW...there's so much politics...just listen to Pop in SA or Steve Kerr in GS...keep the dawn politics out of sports!! Just play the damn game the way it should be! Gotta love Sir Charles and his openess!!
@@drexlspivey3047 Really? Who are the outspoken conservatives in the NBA? Oh that's right, that's not allowed and you're perfectly fine with that. Keep projecting.
I just looked that video has less than 14k in 9 days bro Chuck didn't hear that no one heard that 😂 get a fan base before you start talking or it's like a tree falling in the forrest
I dont think Charles even understands the TNT/ESPN agreement. All the reporting was that ESPN is only licensing Inside the NBA. It was still gonna be produced and aired by TNT but ESPN would be able to simulcast it. Similar to the Mcafee deal. And it would only be for the bigger games. The reports also said Charles contract would still be with Turner and not ESPN. If that’s the case then I’m not sure why Charles is saying “i’m not gonna be doing both. I’m not bout to be doing ABC, ESPN, and TNT” if it’s a simulcast then there is no “both”. It’s just the same production being viewed on multiple channels
The same reason ESPN has been having Stephen A on TNT. They’re trying to cross promote. Barkley is probably worried they’ll be trying to get him on First Take or Sportscenter.
25,000 grand a hand! I knew he was gambling a lot but damn! Now I feel even worse about not wanting to sit down at a 25.00 per hand Texas hold-em table at the Venetian because simply it was too much risk.
Put basket from off rebound +1, put back dunks =4 points, basket from steal/block +1. That will move the game more towards defense and rebounding All star game need to put the finals home court advantage as price And so on...
Let the NBA players play defense like they did in the 70's, 80's. Let them use there hands more but not so they hurt players, just play hard but with respect!!
Three pointers shoukd only be worth two unless the shot goes up with eight seconds on the shot clock or less. That would go a long way. The problem isn't necessarily that there are too many threes, it's teams just chucking them up with 19 on the clock over and over again without a single pass.
This interview was interesting... So espn has the rights to inside the NBA but that doesn't automatically include Barkley and the others? They better wrap that up fast before Bezos writes a check too big for Charles to refuse
And it’s interesting that both sports have the same amount of games and same playoff format. You don’t hear one NHL player bitch and cry about the long schedule or load management. After the game, they’re either getting ready to go on the road or they’re in the gym.
The NBA All Star Game could be former Kentucky Wildcats players vs everyone else. The only problem is, would the non-former Kentucky Wildcats team even have enough players?
What rules have changed, that allowed for this scoring Bring back hand checking, bring back the defense. Silver has been on tape saying he wanted high scoring games, well here ya go boss!
Damn, Chuck playing 25k a hand at blackjack table and complaining this generation gets paid too much. To get the ratings up, they need to stop talking politics and stop load management. Sports are entertainment and escapism. Also they need to allow tougher defending, especially on the perimeter. Perhaps extend the 3 point line.
Get rid of the corner 3 and the play-in, and bring back handchecking. Noone wants to see zero defensive effort in a regular season game that barely matters. Ideally they'd shorten the season too make the games matter more but that'll never happen
When Draymond sucker punched poole and everybody was more mad at the video being leaked than the actual assault and the warriors got rid of poole and kept green, I said I'll never watch another NBA game again, and I haven't and won't. And it seems like green can get away with assaulting anybody on the court and nothing happens to him, so that's a no to me
Isnt't shortening the season load management? Of course you need to shorten seasons. The american model of playoff tournaments make the only games that matter being the games at the end. Less season, less teams in the tournament, more interest.
The NBA's answer to everything is meaningless tournaments. The hidden agenda behind those choices (imo) has zero to do with the fans and everything to do with sports gambling.
I agree cutting the 3’s but I might be to late, college basketball is getting as bad as the nba , kids starting shooting 3’s , I think just last week they set up the record for shooting 3s, it’s ridiculous, nba needs to bring defense back
I think the early bye and the horrible schedule for the Chiefs has to do with the NFL not wanting another Patriots. They don't want the Chiefs to dominate.
It has more to do with NFL greed wanting to have Christmas games. They even put a game on Black Friday, traditionally a college football day, to appease Amazon.
"Dan, you act like you're 35 years old. You old".

“they not gonna work Charles like no damn dog” lol

TNT has the only broadcast worth listening too. Don't dilute the TNT crew by having them work with the ESPN crew. Huge mistake.

Not with the pressure on! Hell NO Dan Patrick you won’t make 8/10 😂
3:24 widen the court and extend the three point line by 4 feet
Exactly!
Again the problem with the NBA isn’t the play style, it isn’t load management, they don’t need to change the rules. The problem is there is no young superstar on the level of a Bird, Magic, MJ, Shaq, Kobe, LeBron, Steph. Nobody under 30 is on that level. The only way to ensure the success of the league is to find the next face of the league. Take LeBron and Steph out… who is that guy? Giannis? Jokic? Luka? None of those guys move the needle.
Kobe let everyone know that this was coming because of AAU basketball. I just watched the video again and he was spot on.
Kobe was right about aau but the analytics people are arguably a bigger problem. More than half the shots are 3s
I went to my first NFL game this year. It was a incredible experience. I paid a little over $2k for 4 tickets with a great view. To go to an NBA game with good seats will cost me about $2k for one decent seat. How about making the games more affordable. Shooting 3's is not the issue alone.
