David Silver and TNT are in quiiiite a pickle here. You KNOW they want to publically lynch Sir Charles over this (and his general basedness) but of they do there will be an uproar both from the fans AND the players. Everyone loves Chuck because he's REAL. It's clear he's the players' favorite broadcaster when they interact with the TNT team, and it's clear he's the lynchpin of making Inside the NBA entertaining. Ernie's good too, but he's a duck. And the NBA has been trying so desperately to raise up new talent to replace him (Jefferson, Wade, Candace, Draymond, etc) but they're all either phonies or straight up shitty at riffing off the top. It's so transparent what the NBA is trying to do with their talent...

Ice Cube and Da Lench Mob said it quite well: Fuck those Devils
