NBA writer annoyed at Charles, Shaq, TNT for lack of knowledge on current players

[aceboon]

I'm listening to Eddie Johnson on Sirius XM- NBA Channel and he's pretty much co-signing Shaq talkin' shyt just like an old vet would. And as he continues to talk it's plain as day.. the old heads are mad at the money these younger guys are making compared to what they made. That's it. That's the whole point of this. Its not even about where they're at or not at in their game play. Its all about the big contracts they're getting point blank

Unless its dikkriding Bron, Eddie Johnson is usually a hater

That’s definitely it for some.... but Eddie always gives the youngins props.... He is from a different era where getting ribbed from the older heads was received differently.... and don’t forget, this all entertainment so take it lightly.... Shaq know ball but I truly believe he’s absolutely a closet hater imo

I disagree, but to each his own

Knowing how to pronounce a player's name & who is on a team's roster is the bare minimum, and somehow they still flub it up. Herring was correct on his statement.

It’s all fun and games on TNT, embarrassing.

 

[The axe murderer]

Wow and people defended this

 

[YaThreadTrashB!]

People still bytching about this?

But it's funny! I watch them for entertainment, if you want all that accurate shyt go buy an Athletic subscription!

You don't find buffoonery like this with other sports, just doesn't happen. Not to mention shytting on the future faces of your sport is counterproductive as fukk.

They could've used that same air time instead and bigged them dudes up and got a couple more eyeballs to check out Hornets, Knicks, Grizzlies games.

You’re not supposed to take this show seriously. It’s basically entertainment. I mean people bytch about stuff like this but shows that actually will do well thought out and informed breakdowns of sports and other news won’t even last long.

“Why Future still going platinum but nobody is fukking with Lupe?!”

Yep it’s pure entertainment, if I wanted in depth nerdy analysis I’d listen to podcasts.

This is a terrible point.

NBA fans are the lowest common denominator because they want to be stupid.

Do you listen to those podcasts? Do you think people who stan this show listen to those podcasts?
