Last July, the National Basketball Association announced a new agreement for media rights with Amazon, NBC, ESPN and ESPN, which will be in effect at the beginning of next season. Among the seventy -six billion dollar deal was Warner Bruce Discovery, the owner of TNT, which has been held in league broadcasting since late eighteen. News News has sparked many viewers of the American Professional League: What will happen to the greatest studio athlete ever? It is possible that “within the American Professional League”, in TNT, exceeded the 1990s of “SPORTSCENTER” from ESPN, John Madden in the mid -two years on “Monday night football”, Michael Wilbon and Tony Cornehiser, “Pardon”. He did this through the constant accumulation of talent and chemistry. The TV -news correspondent previously began a name named Erney Johnson in hosting “Inside” in 1990, a year after the presentation of the show, and Charles Barclali Celebrity Hall and Shackil O’Neill came in the new millennium. But the arrival of Kenny (the bird) Smith, the American Professional League champion twice and will be Basketball times The college player of the year, in 1998, enabled the offer to start retreating to his internal name.
During the normal season, Smith flies from his home in Los Angeles to Atlanta, where the show is filmed, every Thursday and returns on Friday. Meanwhile, he remains in his apartment in Four Seasons-White and Gold Color Planner, wrote about European travel, a hypothetical speaker recently obtained on a shelf-taking a car to TNT Studios on Thursday for the weekly registration of “Inside”. Once, as Smith spread late to work, a brutal donkey fled on a highway in Atlanta, causing Gridlock. There was no reason to clarify Smith on this highway to reach the studio-Barclay later indicated, during the show-but though Smith blamed the stray transformation of his delay: a rare on the air, apparently. “From the inside” is loved for many reasons, but perhaps especially for explicit and loving opinions for its Emmy award -winning hosts. Smith, a previous point goalkeeper, is always looking to “throw lobs”, as he says, to Barkley and O’Neal, who provokes unforgettable responses. Dive and brick, from the rhetoric, is equally enjoyable.
Last November, “Inside” fans got good news: TNT will continue to produce the show, and its license for ESPN after changing broadcasting rights, and all the four hosts will continue. (It is said that their contracts deserve millions annually) O’Neal sits seven feet, a young host, on the other side of Johnson, in a reduced chair, so that all their heads are at the same level. The Quartet appears before, during and after the normal season games Thursday night, as well as post -season competitions, leaving the studio about 2 I amOften after doing something-the face is not grown, for example, during the race to the interactive digital screen of the exhibition-which runs viral.
A few hours before the “Inside”, Smith, who is sixty -year -old, is bearded, and I am six inchs, six feet, immediately after its seasons. We sat on a table outside the hotel’s restaurant, where Smith spotted and spoke shortly with the former mayor of Atlanta. Smith was wearing green pistachio shoes Nike Moon and a matching air sweating, which he indicated that he paid it (Michael Jordan did not give him his old friend and former colleague at North Carolina University). This was the hundred and the first day of the second Trump administration, which we discussed with his basketball ball GoatThe possibility of a four -point shot, why is Barkley “ATM”, and the similarities between “Inside” and “Seinfeld”. This conversation was edited and intensified.
The offer that you have participated in hosting over the past twenty -eight is somewhat unusual. It is special Change diapers competition; Charles Barclay Kiss the ass From actual donkeys. Barkley wrestling with your other host, Shaquille O’Neal; A One hundred yards of motivationWhich you are It can be said He won, against Barclay, O’Neill, and a few adult athletes; Discussions of police murders of black men and non -armed athletes who protest during the national anthem; You fly to the studio with a jet pack. It fights water water, underwater breathing, and brono electric ride. . . And some of the best basketball games analysis. What kind of offer?
It is a useful basketball in its essence, which explains and exercises a helpful culture. We pay the same attention to the ocean as we do. There are costumes, there are political positions, there is team chemistry, and there is paternity and motherhood.
Are there other shows or artists who help in particular to inform what has become “from the inside”? I think about “SNL”, “Punk’d”, “Letterman”, pieces and pieces of Sketch comedy.
Perhaps it was all effect, but I don’t think any of them did this the way we do. I think that our uniqueness comes from the fact that it is allowed to be oral freedom and mental freedom, as it has never been trained. We do not go to production meetings. Charles discovers, What will I say? I have no idea what he will say tonight. I have no idea.
Do he Know?
I learned over time that he knows what he would say. But you really hear an unexplained version of what everyone believes at that moment. It is not one, two, three. It is always, Wait, wait, wait: What I just said? We will not allow you to give our formation. We listen. I think this is the biggest difference between our offer and any other offer. We are the best listeners on TV.
She was brought to cry, laugh, as I saw your offer. What moments make you blur?
They are moments of life. Charles has a grandson, but he did not change diapers. You, like, “What?” So I, like, “U, Ernie, Charles did not change diapers.” It is, like, “I can change it”. So, next week, we got diapers – all should be organic – we put the meldy buddy buddy. Charles is scary. Then there was the time when we were in the back. On the third screen, we see David Blain while playing Lakers. Pleen stayed under the water for seven minutes or ten minutes – something crazy. Break the world record. So Charles, like, “Oh, I can do at least four minutes.” I, like, “You can’t.” “Well, get a fish tank.” leap. It lasts twenty -three seconds. It has nothing to do with basketball. It is always something we are talking about. It is unprecedented.
I feel like the position of fate in the group. How do you see your role?
I use boxing analogy. Shack like George Foreman, a great striking. But it may take some punching. Like, it will wander on the floor. It will happen I pushed to the Christmas tree. Charles resembles Mike Tyson: a knockout blow to you from the door. It may never be affected. I am like Floyd Mayweather or Sugar Ray Leonard: I’m going to Len on you With information overnight, then you may eventually be expelled. Pop, pop, pop, pop. Erney is Angelo Dundy – he is the broken man. He makes sure that no one bleeds to death.
Who is likely to bleed?
Shack. It is a slap – it is fine With the fall. Or it is pushed. It is fine with being made to look in a certain way. he Benny Hill. You are a fan of Big Benny Hill.
Do you get this reference?
When I played the topic for him, I think it was Globetrotters.
How was it like bringing Shack to the offer in 2011, after a decade with Charles and Arni?
Shak was not used to not being the most heated player. In this team, it should not be. That was an amendment. When he came for the first time, I always thought he would leave his best in the green room. I was, like, “Shak, Man, The Stories you say here, why don’t you talk about this?” He was telling me about Kobe Bryant and Phil Jackson. They lost a game. Phil and Shak talks and searches for Shack and sees Coby. He does not have a basketball, but it mimics every step. “So below, if we approach, we will throw the ball,” says Phil Shack. Shack, like, “No, no, no, throw it to the man who returned there to put out without a basketball. The man who imagines the game.” I told Shaq that this is what everyone wants. I call it the effect of the bull Durham: When the managers go to the hill and speak to the archers, only these four people know what is said. Give us that. And when he started doing that more, things became normal.
