Charles Barkley is not in the TNT studio tonight..wonder why?

[L.Kizzle]

I don't have a problem being told I'm wrong. I never heard of him calling the game until tonight. And I don't think he is play by play material so it will probably be a disaster.

He's done it before.

[R.I.P.]

I want my attorney to be from Princeton not my players. Charles.

I'm probably the only one who actually kinda likes Charles has an actual game analyst on here so far, I like some of his opinions.

[Meticode]

Let me help you:

- The Heat/Hawks game is in Atlanta
- TNT Studios is in Atlanta

See?

Damn, you used some logic on that one. Props!

[Stat & Melo]

he's not as bad as i thought he would be, hes making this game enjoyable

He's not bad at all, in fact he's doing a damn good job. He's very informative and has strong opinions.

[Timmy D for MVP]

That's fine... cause I can't stand Reggie Miller.

[Faptastrophe]

James, Wade- OUT, Charles Barkley-IN.

The game is watchable again.

EJ, Kenny and Barkley called a game before. They've done it a couple of times in the past. They were terrible, but it was funny because I think they were making fun of how terrible they were. I think one of the other commentators said: "It's not as easy as it looks, huh?"

And they said that Barkley was going to call the game a while back.

He's better now.

Barkley's really good in this game so far. Finally, a guy who's not afraid to criticize someone and does it in a fair and informative way.

I'm home relaxing in the bed and typing on a laptop and I'm supposed to care about grammar? Are you a English Professor Dr. Proofread?

Definitely talking about Barkley..

[BurningHammer]

On the other note: isn't Charles gonna host SNL this Saturday night, and he still works his day job at Atlanta?

[bwink23]

They said he is doing play by play for the Hawks/Heat game? Come on is anyone else buying that bull? After looking so annoyed while on the set with shaq not all of a sudden he is not there? I think something is going on with this absence by Barkley.

He's with Reggie and Ernie doing the Heat game...pretty funny too.

I believe this is the 2nd game he's done. The first was when he verbally assaulted Dick Bavetta which led to their "race" during the ASG
