[Highlight] Inside the NBA reveals their “Gone Fishing” graphic for Boston
Vrabel and Russini in the “Titanic” pose, holy shit!
Proof that Shaq and Barkley really are untouchable lol
even on ESPN too lmfaoo
I feel like even if ESPN has to end up firing Barkley for any reason, Barkley could not care less
I’m honestly stunned he chose to follow the rest of the show to ESPN. Barkley has always been pretty vocal that he wants to retire and doesn’t want to spend his 60s working.
He barely works now. They used to be in the studio every night for the eastern conference playoffs going until 2 am. Now he’s on tv 10 times all year
Lmfao good point
I think it was Ernie who basically revealed that Barkley doesn’t even watch the games. He’s basically watching NHL games or something else and then has someone clue him in like 5-10 mins before they go on air on what happened lol
crazy that he doesn’t even watch the games and somehow still has better takes than Mr. Sensitive and Hakeem’s water boy…
Honestly that’s part of the reason
Barkley doesn’t care lol. Meanwhile, Shaq cares way too much lol
Barkley is still a Turner employee. ESPN just licenses the program and puts their network graphic on it instead of TNT.
he said a big reason he’s still doing it is out of loyalty to the staff and crew of the show. he’ll be fine no matter what but he said he didn’t want to see them losing their jobs. i kinda believe him
also nothing has to change for him so that helps
It looks like Barkley has an estimated net worth of $90 million which is more than enough to have a very comfortable retirement. I really doubt he cares about they paycheck much, he just likely enjoys it for now.
Oh my god, you net worth people are the fucking worst and you’re fucking everywhere. Stop googling random made up numbers every time you see a celebrity mentioned with money. Jesus Christ.
This is really aggressive for absolutely no reason lol absolutely unhinged
The worst? I can think of plenty worse people.
I can’t
“working”
If Pat McAfee can drop S-bombs at noon ET on the main network, and the Mannings can bring on people from competing networks as guests, I doubt there are that many rules for licensed shows.
Maybe he has a different interpretation of working. Currently he just talks about basketball with his friends, or the very least, his tolerable co-workers.
It’s a pretty sweet gig, especially when it pays really well.
Shaq and Barkley not the ones making the photo why y’all be jerking them
Exactly. It’s the production crew, most likely Joe Underhill aka “Underdog” who was referenced in the clip.
I really don’t understand anyone thinking this was Shaq and Barkley vs them reacting to a pic
They were in photoshop looking like that Young Thug + Lil Durk meme
That pose is a completely innocent interaction and any suggestion otherwise is laughable
Who among us does not enjoy a harmless trip with our fishing buddies?
They were clearly around friends the entire time!
Clearly a platonic pose between friends, find a new slant.
“who are the two people in the front? I don’t know” - Kenny “the Instigator” Smith
I clicked into this expecting it to be the Celtics roster and choked on my drink
i swear this show started memes 20+ years ago with the stuff they do. A+ production crew always.
Prob step down tomorrow after this.
Just perfection
Vrabel - Russini is diabolical.
Simmons at the end haha
Simmons dream would be to go fishing with this crew
“So Mark, can I call you, Mark? Was that really you at the end of Boogie Nights or what?”
He definitely knows it’s a prosthetic and he’s definitely thought about acquiring the prop
“CR, you’re never gonna guess what just went up for auction!”
Aren’t like all cocks prosthetic in movies unless its in an NC-17 movie or something? Women gotta show their actual tits while guys get a big fake dong to hang.
It’s perfect
Why not Ime Udoka and whoever he was fucking on the Celtics if they are going there, with Nia Long in tears
Because this one is much more recent and well known.
“Paint me like one of your Foxboro girls.”
Top tier
Is Mazulla not allowed to fish?
they’re using him as bait
I bet that freak likes it, too
Mazulla daydreams about being eaten by sharks
You cannot unlock your full potential until you are metabolically absorbed by an apex predator.
Bait? He’s in there snatching fish with his bare hands
he’s in the water trying to fight a shark barehanded
the boat doesnt have an engine, he’s pulling it
Only trying because every shark runs away from the smoke.
He volunteered to be keelhauled because he wanted to see what it was like.
He uses grenades
Everyone is afraid of Maz
Mazzulla is swimming next to the boat spear fishing.
He bought a one way ticket to Jerusalem
Inside being broadcasted on ESPN has it’s perks. Like the Turner-employed graphics department just letting it fly on ABC
i like the idea that someone was actually getting paid to create this shitpost
Getting paid to jerk, what a good life.
Just like Russini
The best part of inside the NBA lol
TNT did this knowing it would piss off the NFL that ESPN showed it lol
Wut? It’s on ESPN
Edit: Had no idea it was still produced by TNT sports.
TNT still produces the show. ESPN just airs it
Wow, so did Chuck and the others managed to keep all the jobs from the TNT inside crew? legends
Produced by TNT Sports
For the Hawks I’m pretty sure they had General Sherman in the boat. He burned down Atlanta 1864 😂😂
That’s hilarious af! LOL
LOL at Bill Simmons, who has been awfully quiet BTW
He said on a previous podcast that he was with his daughter this weekend and would not do a Sunday pod either way.
Still funny having him on the graphic.
What’s funny is on the pod it sounded like he was only doing it for the good karma so the Celtics would win lol
He was like ‘Ineont he checking my phone or any of that stuff while we are at the restaurant’ lol.
Mondays pod is gonna be epic.
I thought he said he wasn’t going to do a Saturday reaction pod. He’s still doing the Sunday pod?
Yeah, even Zach said he would be on Sunday night with Bill.
He’s live right now. People just say shit on here and it gets upvoted.
This may be a sign I’ve been praying on his downfall too much and giving him listening minutes regardless, but it was his daughter’s birthday yesterday so the radio silence was at least somewhat planned.
Noooo lmaoooo
The SS Heimlich is < chef’s kiss >
Glad they still have it in them to make fun of Vrabel and Russini, A+ to graphic team haha
Bill locked himself in a room for a few a weeks
They cold blooded with the vrabel/russini reference
That’s fucking crazy lmaoooo
Absolutely elite shithosiery
Jaylen didn’t know Tatum was also eliminated from playoff contention
I don’t think those guys said a word re: Vrabel/Russini.
They didn’t know who they were. /s
Too good.
Perfect. No notes
They put BS in there?? 😆
Boston gets treated with kids gloves - imagine how differently that Vrabel/Russini story would’ve played out in New York lol.
‘SS Heimlich’ is pure gold
I’m slow today, what does this mean? is it just a reference to vrabel hugging russini from behind?
The Celtics choked
it really be the obvious
The maneuver to prevent choking.
I thought I was on r/nbamemes for a second god damn
Someone explain the joke i live under a rock
New England Patriots coach got caught fooling around with that reporter
lmao brutal!
Brutal.
Kraft is gonna have all of them fired
Oh my god that is absolute gold hahahaha
Ernie lists off all but two people on the boat, “And I don’t see anyone else.” 😂
They should’ve also had Kraft on a massage table and Belichick doing some weird shit with the 25 year old gf.
Go all the way
Put Paul Pierce bitch ass in there too lol
Why is it that no major media outlets are refusing to acknowledge the Vrabel/Russini relationship? Seems like theyre told not to mention it at all
Lmao that was an all time Gone Fishing image. When you make something that even Shaq and Chuck won’t touch you’ve got a great joke.
Is that Jon Krozinski next to Jet?
He said that was John Krasinski, but I refuse to believe that is a picture of John Krasinski. Maybe Krasinski’s Latin twin?… Also, Krasinski is supposedly 6’3 and Walberg is 5’8.
Bruh 💀
No bellybarf and his sugar bby?
Tough weekend to be a Boston fan
Kenny trying to assist lol
“where they goin chuck?”
“That’s all I see on that boat, I don’t see anyone else.”
😂
Holy shit lmfao
Wouldn’t fish for that with a ten foot pole
Ngl this is really low brow.
No wonder their ratings suck.
