Charles Barkley urges LeBron James to retire soon: ‘I don’t want to see him just hanging on’

"I hope he leaves sooner than later, cause I hate to see great players out there struggling."

"It’s an honor to work for them. And we only did three shows and they’ve been great."

"He is right about one thing, I think there is a contractual obligation for every network to talk about the Cowboys."

"They should just put old. O-L-D, with an extra D too."

"Next we'll get to LeBron."

Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley had different takes on the NBA gambling scandal involving Terry Rozier and Chauncey Billups.

"That idiot, George Santos, we got him out of prison."

Dell Curry does NOT, in fact, work for Fox Sports.

"Put the camera here... That was terrible."

Everything about Inside the NBA's debut on ESPN looked the same as its TNT days, except a noticeably thinner Charles Barkley.

"Every person who's ever touched the ball wanted to be on ESPN."

"They didn’t care about the fans."

"Talk about putting your kids in the kitchen and turning the stove on"

"Billionaires always have the upper hand on millionaires"

ESPN has finally made the dates official for when we will see Inside the NBA on their airwaves throughout the regular season.

"We were concerned they’re going to be like, no, you gotta go to SportsCenter"

“It will be as close to that as we can possibly get”

"Can you tell us how this thing is gonna work?"

"Charles, let’s be honest, you literally joined a team with Hakeem Olajuwon"

"They made this deal. They haven't told us when we're going to work. They haven't told us how it's going to work."

"We have no parameters of what the show's going to be."

After opening week, the show will not appear again until Christmas Day.

“The reason why I would pick Karl Malone over Charles [Barkley] is because of the level of professionalism that Karl Malone always approached."

"Are they gonna say we gotta go to the SportsCenter?"
