It’s hands down the most entertaining sports show on television. The guys at Inside the NBA have a blast in the studios and you simply never know what these guys are going to be saying on a nightly basis. While most of the humor is reserved for guys like Shaq and Charles Barkley, once in a blue moon Ernie Johnson will step in with a “nugget” of his own. Johnson’s job is always to corral these guys and pretty much act as a mediator. Think of him as a teacher in a classroom of 5-year-olds. He has to know when to let certain things slide and when to tame his students.
But last night Johnson decided enough was enough and he got back at Charles. When Johnson was reciting some statistics about the Golden State Warriors, Chuck said, “those are some good nuggets, I’m glad somebody told you them,” to which Johnson responded with his own quote about nuggets:

Ernie: The first time in the Wizards’ playoff history that they had more blocks than turnovers.
Charles: That’s a good stat.
Ernie: 10 blocks, seven turnovers.
Charles: That’s some good nuggets. Good thing somebody told you them.
Ernie: That’s not the first time you’ve said, “Those are some good nuggets,” either.
Shaq: [laughs]
Charles: Wowwww.
