Charles Barkley announced the taping of a pilot episode for Inside the NBA's move to ESPN, which did not meet expectations. Following TNT's loss of NBA broadcast rights, ESPN will air the Emmy-winning show, produced by TNT, with all original cast members returning. However, Barkley noted on The Dan Patrick Show that the pilot turned out poorly, leading to skepticism about the show's adaptation. With TNT unable to show game highlights due to the rights transfer, plans are being reevaluated to align the content with ESPN's NBA programming.
Barkley expressed disappointment over the pilot for Inside the NBA taped for ESPN, calling it "the stupidest shit I've ever seen in my life."
Despite a rough start, Barkley mentioned that TNT acknowledged the pilot's shortcomings and promised to improve for the show's future on ESPN.
