Charles Barkley is caught being absent-minded on live TV
On today’s show, Charles was at it again. In the half-time report, Barkley exclaims “The Pistons should win this game!”. Shaq asks if Barkley is sure of this, to which, Chuck replies “With no Embiid and no Simmons?!”
Upon hearing this, the rest of the crew had to hold back their laughter. Ernie Johnson interrupted “You mean no Harden?” and Charles was made aware of his callous error.

The studio was in splits as Barkley’s absent-mindedness produced a hilarious take. This reminds us that a TV show host forgetting which players play for which team is funny. More than that, it is grounds for dismissal.
For Charles Barkley however, forgetfulness is his boon. The studio holds and cherishes this more than anything. We as fans love this too!
NBA on TNT and Charles Barkley’s hilarious segues make it what it is. Without it, it may never feel the same.
