TNT Bests ESPN in NBA Coverage Again Tonight.

Best NBA Coverage in the land
As previously rumored, Kevin Garnet took trash talking to another level when KG referenced Carmelo Anthony's wife earlier this week during a game in Madison Square Garden.  ESPN's NBA Countdown and First Take both covered the story, but NONE of the numerous people on these shows said exactly what it was that KG allegedly said to Carmelo Anthony.  TNT has not covered the NBA since December of last year because of the various NCAA Football Bowl Games taking place around the new year.  Tonight, within the first 5 minutes of their broadcast, Charles Barkley says that he does not know about Honey Nut Cheerios, but that he likes Frosted Flakes and Raisin Bran.  Got to love Charles.  And this is why people love TNT's coverage of the NBA better than ESPN.  It seems as if the folks at ESPN(such as Stephen A Smith, etc.) are too close to NBA players.  They are afraid of offending them.  This is not the case with TNT's crew; they say what they feel and do not hold back.  That's how a real news organization works.  Keep up the good work.

What Charles Barkley says Carmelo should have responded with.
