You're listening to the best of the odd couple.

Let's start here.

And if you were watching Inside the NBA last night or on social media you could

have saw it or whatever because it was buzzing like crazy but Charles Barkley finally got a

chance to address you remember the JJ Redick comments that's right where he basically

blamed inside the NBA and stuff for the reason that the ratings are down,

which is just total malarkey nonsense, Boulder Dash, poppycock, whatever word you want to use.

And I think JJ Reddick is the biggest hypocrite going, okay?

Because when he was on the SPN, all he did was beat down the NBA, told us about all the plumbers and butchers and whatnot who played and disrespected the earlier era of the NBA.

So he's no better than anybody else. And then he wants to get on his soapbox and say the reason people aren't, well, there's somebody badging the product.

No, no, that's why it is the preeminent post game, pre and post game show.

The other networks have done it.

Do we have Charles?

Yeah, we got Charles.

I just want to make sure.

All right.

Let's hear Charles and then we can go. He said something about what the reason people aren't watching this crappy, we got Charles. I just want to make sure. All right. Let's hear Charles, and then we can go.

He said something about, we're the reason people aren't watching this crappy product we got. That's a Jay, J.J. Yeah, us. Like, we out there jacking up a hundred three's night. JJ, I don't know Jason Monroe. I don't know who that is, but JJ, you come for the king. you better not make it.
