  Before I say anything else, I want to commend TNT for its pioneering as an NBA broadcast leader. I consider Ernie Johnson, who has hosted Inside the NBA for over three decades, to be synonymous with NBA basketball.

The article discusses the dissatisfaction with TNT's coverage of the NBA All-Star Game, marking it as an underwhelming end to their long-standing broadcast era. The broadcast was criticized for its lack of focus on the game itself, with hosts Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, and Ernie Johnson engaging in what was described as "goofy" antics rather than providing insightful commentary or analysis. The article highlights a particular moment where the hosts were more focused on a comedic bit involving a fake phone call than on the game, which was seen as a disservice to viewers expecting a professional broadcast. This approach was perceived as an insult to the legacy of TNT's basketball coverage, especially given the network's history of delivering engaging and informative NBA content. The piece suggests that this final broadcast was a missed opportunity to celebrate the end of an era with the respect and attention it deserved.
