Ernie was talking at the start about why the show works. To be honest,he is the main reason. He is the consummate professional,the glue that holds it all together. Absolute legend
And his little side comments
EJ is the engine.
Ian Robinson i can’t imagine any other host keeping shaq kenny and charles in line other than Earnie
Ernie is the quarterback, the guys are the receivers.
Without Charles no one would watch though.
On some of my worst days their laughter helped me get through.
I hope your life is full of great times now!
@@nakedbanana7056
That’s Real !
Same here
Yes ...💯💯💯
At any level, of any media, Ernie Johnson is top 1. The best professional out there.
@Ron Thorp wow you are weird
@Ron Thorp you watch too many conspiracies theories. No wonder it makes you paranoid.
@Ron Thorp lemme guess... You a QaNut?
So many people don't realize how important Ernie's role is. As a host he's the time-keeper, he's the interviewer, he manages the segments, he keeps them on topic, etc.
I’m a 77 year old women and I enjoy the humor these guys have going.
He never asked chuck about them big ol San Antonio women
Them churros
That bit makes me cry everytime I watch it
Whats underrated about that bit is when Chuck said Shaq's soda is all sold out in San Antonio lmao
I was just thinking that! That's the main reason I admire this show!!🤣🤣
That stuff and the Phoenix rant had me dying LMAO.
i can't be the only person getting triggered that these guys are not sitting in the right spots. that just not right!
💯
Nope me too bro.... me.. too
😆 ME TOO
As long as Ernie is in the right place the
planets are free to rotate however they rotate.
Kennny and Ernie are, Shaq and Chuck just need to switch seats
Why they do ma man Shaq like that? Got the today logo on his big head like a helmet 😂😂
😂😂😂
🤣😂I thought I was the only one that saw that
If he weren't 7 feet tall it wouldn't be haha
Rollin!!!!!😂😂🤣😂🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love how Shaq gave EJ his props. He’s the absolute glue, the firestarter & an absolute professional. This is one of the best cast shows ever.
100% the greatest sports show in history.
Hands down.
Pat Mcafee show is getting up there but still chasing this one
@@AttilatheThrilla man I’m a colts fan and I absolutely love Pat but he’s not even in the same stratosphere as Inside the NBA
@@AttilatheThrilla I love pat but no. He has a certain theme and he and his guys are funny but no where near inside the nba.
Actually the CBS Sports Golazo show coverage of the Champions League might be even funnier at times. Its with Jamie Carragher, Micah Richards, Kate Abdo, and Thierry Henry. Should check it out
Ernie Johnson is the straw that stirs the drink. As long as he’s on the show it will be great.
Great analogy man
He is the best in the business by far.
BUT
Ernie and Kenny werent really that great during the late 90s until Chuck came along
Charles is what made the inside the nba what is today.
Take the other 3 guys off it won't be a show
czcams.com/video/3_Ij8SPjMTQ/video.html
Charles is the most important, then the other 3 equally
One of the funniest and most iconic moments was when they retired Kenny Smith's jersey on a clothesline it was hilarious if anyone has that clip please post it. 😅🤣😂
wasnt it mcgrady's jersey with his name over it on tape
@@classyguy69 yeah lol
@@classyguy69 yes hilarious
That one, and the LeBron come home episode 😂😂
czcams.com/video/G1ZMviEik3U/video.html
It touches me to see Shaq showing his emotions
Charles Barkley has ALWAYS been a heel. He’s such a good antagonist and Shaq,though he has a tough exterior is a big teddy bear. Their chemistry is perfect.
Shaq wiping his tears at 24:38 sunk my heart again
They are a national icon.
And the network would not dare to replace these four.
Ernie and Chuck are the main reason the show works. Kenny and Shaq are great compliments, but Ernies professionalism and Charles unprofessionalism (lol) is what really makes this so great. Plus they both always give great perspectives whether it’s basketball or social change.
Kobe's passing has always torn me up and like Kenny said, it was when I became aware of how much he meant on a personal level, someone I never met, but someone I will always admire.
This is the first time since his death that I have been able to hear his name. Still won’t watch anything featuring him.....I’m live in la....he was the fuel of this city.
I just love how they let former players talk how they want to talk. Their perspective is invaluable. And you need a person like Ernie to keep it all together.
I'm glad that these 4 are able to celebrate Inside the NBA like this. It's such an amazing show for a show that's unscripted and there are so many classic moments. I can listen to a bunch of interviews of these guys talking together.
What did he get Chuck?
A TRIPLE SINGLE 😂
@Ron Thorp go see a therapist
I binged watched them on CZcams for a week.. ..🤷♀️ didn't know what I was missing lol
Same. I don't even follow basketball anymore.
Facts
Pure chemistry and honesty...easy formula with the right players. These dudes make it the most fun show on TV...PERIOD
Chuck: everybody on the show can take a joke
Me: I don't know if that apply to Shaq
that's an element of the show that makes it more funny. lol. we can always expect shaq to go off.
Thats because shaq is the most insecure person alive.
Tbh, Kenny is much worse.
He can take a joke. He acts like he can’t on the show. It’s all an act for shock value as they were saying
If Shaq couldn’t take a joke, he wouldn’t have been on the show for 8-9 years
This is great interviewing..The info behind the scenes.
The tears Shaq wipes away at 24:38
Kenny smith the perfect person on reading a situation, letting Shaq talk about Kobe first before chuck butted in
Dom B Ernie gets so much credit for being “the straw that stirs the drink” guy, and rightfully so, Kenny is just as important. He doesn’t say much, but he walks quiet and carries a big stick kinda guy. All four of these guys have an incredibly important role on the show
Always loved kenny. A lot of the funniest shows were because of Kenny's assists.
What makes the show is these men themselves, their personalities are great alone and put together they just work. Love these guys so much
The funniest episode is when Ernie called Shaq "The Big Sofa" lmao
What makes this show great is the fact that it's a reflection of sports because of the spontaneity and team chemistry that goes into each and every show...
These men are national treasures. Greatest sports show ever. Zero debate.
Amen
Bring Popcorn 🍿
These guys are the greatest. Seeing them interact, and clown with, and love one another. Reminds you how important it is to make that call.
It's crazy they bring up years of stuff and it's in my memory like it was yesterday.
You know
For real 😂😂
Shoutout kenny for mentioning Philippines. In my country we fell very sad of losing the man who we idolized while growing up #RipKobe
I just watched this for the first time and it's one of the best interviews I've ever seen. Love Inside The NBA best group of guys in sports. I love the NFL on FOX team but there's nobody better than Ernie, Chuck, Kenny and Shaq
I love how they're going over these moments, CLASSIC moments from the show. Soooo many memories and they can recite certain ones like it was yesterday! It's amazing.
The "One, Two, Back to One" episode is legend
Kenny Smith hits the question on the head They tried to" Trivialize and Belittle" Kobe Bryant . Shaquille O'Neal watched with a keen eye.
Love watching inside the nba.
Chuck is spot on at the start about not talking basketball that long without other material to keep the conversation rolling. Im a casual NBA fan, but I love inside the NBA. It keeps you up to date on the sport while covering other topics, and sharing laughs from 4 hall of fame careers.
The GOATS 🐐
Of what?
Anthony Campos of television
@@anthonycampos8057 😂🤣😂🤣😂
From Australia - your show after Kobes death was very healing over here as well and many people here were hurting during the Australian Open... just wanted to thank you guys for being open with your emotions that night ♡
Charles Barkley: An Very Intelligent & Extremely Funny member of the Group
Kenny Smith: The Instigator
Ernie Johnson: The Glue
Shaq O'Neal: Funny Part & The Baby of the Group.
I think Kenny is a true analyst. He doesn’t get enough credit.
@@isharee3039 nope
@@stephen729 yep
How does he claim to watch the show but don’t know about the moon and gas segments....
lol i still hope shaq was just joking about the moon situation. the gas thing, i believe he believes it. but i hope that moon situation was just a joke
@@el84oro If he believes in the gas thing I would guess he would believe in the moon thing
Well it would kind of ruin the tone if he said "oh yeah I know that story". The guys were more than happy to revisit those memories. If you ask me playing dumb was the right thing to do there
He did know the segments. He told them to explain for people that dont about it. He said his favorite segment is the 1,2,3 back to 1 segment.
If he said yes there would be nothing to talk about dummies
Love those 4 guys. For me it's the friendships and love for each other. Fun fun fun.
Victoria is a Secret down in San Antonio. They do got some big o women, Lol im from San Antonio Chuck.
Lmaoooo
Churros!
Best one liner of all time! Big ole women of San Antonio...Is Victoria really a secret since I from there lol?
They even carried this guys’ interview
I didn’t even notice his existence there 😂
Be
9:57
No One:
Chuck: I Luhh my job
😂
😂😂😂
Sad thing is we know now he probably said that because he's been wanting to leave and made that vocal recently. Sad day for the nba when he steps out for good 💀
@@youareafool6884 he leave when he 60
As tough as Shaq looks and is mean towards Charles. He legit doesn't want his buddy to go 10:10
M.N they’re like brothers
Ernie was sad
23 G Ernie knows chuck has been saying this for years
Charles Barkley and Leroy Jetson, one of the funniest episodes ever
these guys are the best in the game .. for some reason i was smiling the whole 35 minutes cause ive been watching them since about 97 lol
@32:35 Charles Barkley's comments on Kobe... What most people came for I imagine
iTuber012 was looking for this comment...you didnt let me down...Thanks!
Thank you
Thanks 🙏🏽
Thanx#!!!
@///AMG not true at all
This is the funniest show on TV. I can't count how many times i have laugh out loud on the stuff they talking about.
“A basketball show that dabbles in basketball “ Love Ernie
Charles "to be honest with you" Barkley 😂😂😂😂 wtf
Hasade O and Charles “first of all” Barkley 😂😂😭🤣
Hasade O “lemme say dis first”
Listen
Lemme te’ya som’n
I love the show. If I'm just feeling like I need some energy or laughs, I boost up old episodes.
I watch NBA games not because of the games, I watch it for these guys. They have such great chemistry. It's not just the best sports program, but it's got one of the best comedy show on TV.
I had an awfull day at work. Weather is sheit. To cheer up, i rewatch this company while hacin lunch. 10 mins in and i alrdy feel better :DD ty guys.
Ernie "The Elevator" Johnson MVP
15:02 I’ve never heard a more genuine and hilarious laugh from Ernie
So glad these guys will be back on TV in a couple of weeks
@13:23....gas math! That is still the most hilarious episode ever! I love these guys....they are fantastic.
I love your mom
The interview turned into an Inside the NBA show and Craig gets to be a one man audience.
I'm glad shaq is sticking to his guns on the gas debate despite being totally wrong
He's commenting on how to save money under the assumption that the car gets thrown away after the trip.
@Ron Thorp you forgot your meds my friend
Ernie is a national treasure.
we must protect this man at all costs.
I can listen to these guys all day. Very entertaining show...hope they continue for more years to come!
Why Shaq wearing a Mexican sweet bread on his head....
Rofl
😂👌
Pan dulce on my head, don’t call me a pan dulcey head
LMAO XD
😂😂😂
Very nice of them to have Doc Rivers conduct this interview.
This looks like a group therapy session
All That money and Shaq still tryin save gas money 🤷🏿♂️ my type of guy😂😂😂
REST IN MUCH LOVE AND PEACE KOBE, GIGI AND ALL OF THE DEARLY DEPARTED..
I never watch an entire interview. But this was well worth it. 💯👏
I love these guys, together! Shaq's theories are priceless.
I’m glad you talk about other topics then just sports you are all great!! Love hearing you all!! You are so funny 😂 l hope you stay on for much longer!!
Chuck look like that old store manager off work after working 12 to 15 hrs straight, so funny. Love their chemistry
Charles, one can have flaws and still be a hero to some people. In fact, all heroes have flaws because no one is perfect.
Friends like these are priceless
Even on this set, their chemistry is off the charts. I may not always be the biggest fan of Chuck, but these guys are the best because they take their craft seriously but not themselves seriously. Sports are supposed to be fun.
Great choice of interviewees. With the nba getting more attention and more social media involvement, these guys are a big part in all of that.
The thumbnail with the today logo on shaq😂
I loved it when kenny was making fun of guy who left n a wheelchair for an eye poke 😂😂 I just love this show , love shaq his laugh 🤣🤣
I love the show because they are all down to earth, humble, and authentic.
"it's a basketball show that dabbles in basketball"- EJ... and yet... it's still a very good basketball show...that's the brilliance of it...
I would watch these gentlemen do anything. Truly a perfect casting. Love y'all.
This show is a masterpiece.
I dont normally watch long interviews but this one was super great. I totally enjoyed it.
Great interview Craig. Will admit that I was surprised Ernie didn't answer the final question. Much love to everyone involved.
The beginning of this video is like watching the Greatest Hits of Inside The NBA haha So cool to see them talk about those moments back-to-back-to-back
I’m sure I’m not the only one but the Kobe news affects me at random times everyday. It puts me into a constant battle with depression and I still shed tears behind it today.
Hearing Shaq talk about Kobe brought tears to my eyes. RIP Mamba!
Shaq with his gas tank strategy!!! 🚎 #shortbus. 🤣😂🤣😭
And he has a PhD like wtf
He’s on to something
I mean he’s 100% right about the saving money if you aren’t going to drive the car again or something happens to you or the car that you can’t use it again 😂 don’t think he meant it that way though
@@nicholass6370 Don't you start with your strategies, too!!!! 😂😂😂😭🎺🎷
Shaq is right. I tried the gas thing. The 1st half of gas tank burns slower. You save money topping it off. Sounds crazy when he said it, bur so true!!
It don't really burn slower,what happen the upper tank his bigger so u get more mileage but when u reach half its get smaller so it finish faster 🍸
You get better mileage in the bottom half of the tank because you're carrying less weight in fuel.
Shaq Mills a half is a half...the gauge doesn’t measure the size or the shape of the gas tank...but the gas content. So you think 1 pound of feathers weight less than 1 pound of iron.
Surely they've checked this on mythbusters? Lol
@Roger Edgerton What's up with the name-calling? Would you call Shaq and I "doufas" to our faces? Dude!!! Are you one of those guys who hide behind computers and lash out to make them feel better about there short-comings?
THESE GUYS ARE SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT TO THEM!!!!
I don’t care how many times I watch this that logo on Shaqs head will always make me laugh 😂😂😂
i love how craig starts with "first of all" and chuck looks at ernie like "man you hear this fooo?" 😂😂😂😂
Ernie nailed it on the head, it’s so funny when they’re making fun of shaq or charles but it’s even funnier when they are and you hear someone immediately wheez right after they show a funny clip or picture 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
These guys will never stop making you laugh.
Love this show wish our sports in England had shows like this 👍
Shaq: Ernie is the funniest guy on the show
*cues his pitbull joke
Kobe Bryant was and still is a member of everyone family on this planet. His death is still hurting me.
It almost seems like a competition at this point to see who can be the saddest about Kobe dying.
Some of the BEST TV has to offer ANYWHERE........
I LOVE these guys!!! I always watch them and honor their opinion and Outlook!
This was amazing. I just wish we could see the cut shots of the ppl behind the scenes laughing at times. #TodayShow this is the best thing ya'll have done in awhile.
