TNT’s Inside the NBA team is working the NBA Finals for NBA TV, which means there’s plenty more opportunity for hilarity amongst the cast.
Charles Barkley, who is no stranger to poking fun at other media personalities, appeared to take a shot across the bow at Shannon Sharpe’s reported buyout from FS1’s Undisputed, which he hosts with Skip Bayless.

Jamal Murray once again shined for Denver in the postseason. The Finals stage, 9 days off nor the Heat’s defense could stop the 26-year-old star.
It’s hard to compete for oxygen with a historically talented squad riding a record win streak and aiming for its third straight championship. But don’t be mistaken: No. 1 Oklahoma is not alone at the Women’s College World Series. There are seven other teams competing right now in Oklahoma City.

Billy Horschel had a no good, very bad day during Thursday’s opening round of the Memorial. He walked off the course after hitting the ball 84 times and finds himself in second to last place having only beaten Chad Ramey on day one, who posted an 88.
A PGA Tour player shooting anything in the 80s is always alarming, but what’s so eye-opening about Horschel’s 84 is that he’s the defending champion this week.
You can imagine the scene.
Or perhaps you’re already living this particular slice of modern Americana: A family crams into an SUV and barrels down the interstate, parents in front, a preteen athlete buckled up in back. Collectively, they’re committing dozens of weekends, hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars toward a shared athletic pursuit.

The Red Sox host the Rays for a divisional showdown, and you guessed it — we are going over.
And we’re getting even money.
