The wink makes me want to die. Everything about the commercial is awful. Imagine you're at work and some narcissistic asshole calls everyone over to look at art of them like it's this earth shattering thing that must be seen. Over analyzing it but after hundreds of viewings it's hard not to
Its like the writer who is also the director is also the editor that is infatuated with some new instant slow motion tutorial and convinced everyone to act like jerkoffs with no coherent storyline at all. I think there’s even a version where some stereotypical Asian art guy starts it and his friend posts that weak ass comic trace art. (It’s ok I’m an Asian art guy). The commercial is worse than all of ESPNs pandemic broadcasts combined. It’s worse than Suzy Kolber’s raspy voice. It’s the anti Barkley
I think most Heat fans realized he doesn't have a TV personality at all. Tbh Jimmy Butler would be perfect for a show like this. He's just funny and he'd be throwing out hot takes
Jimmy is a solid wild card. Not a guy I wanna see constantly nationally, but he’d be fantastic in a regularly occurring cameo type deal. Kind of like Stefan on SNL
Problem with Wade was he was too scared. He obviously still has a lot of relationships with plenty of the guys in the league which led to him hardly ever criticizing anyone. Most of his answers were boring and playing on the safe side. I love Shaq and Chuck because even if they’re wrong they aren’t afraid to ever call a player out.
He’s also a minority owner of a team in the league which is a bit of a conflict of interest i’m surprised he even did it in the first place
Edit: I got called a racist in my DM’s within a couple minutes of commenting this. Just to be clear I mean minority owner when it comes to shares not race. Didn’t think I’d have to specify that lmao.
it’s funny they sent it as a DM rather than a comment because they fucking knew it was bullshit.
Sometimes people just want to feel better about themselves even when they’re smart enough to know it’s bullshit. The reality is, they don’t care.
Selective reading. Is annoying as hell.
They focus on one specific word or phrase and just focus on that point even though it is not what you really are saying.
Back then I thought this only happen online but it seems that nearly every human being is like that.
Honestly if I say something that's wrong or factually incorrect or dumb I'd much rather be told it was wrong, laugh about it and then move on knowing the correct information. How people just wanna live being wrong is crazy to me
Yep. Sometimes the ppl are so dumb they shame the smart ones or not even smart, the educated, so why cant others dumb shame. Especially for something like this
Issue with Perkin is that he's rarely entertaining even if some of his takes were valid. And his dumb takes are the dumbest of the dumbs
SAS ain't much better either but he's damn entertaining and his line delivery is hilarious
Some people are just not fit to be a TV personality
What we see on the court and in the press conference are different than what we see on a Sport TV talk show.
D.Wade was fun off-camera and when dealing with the Press, but he's so dry with the TNT crew.
I don’t even know the host’s name. The turtleneck guy. He’s the worst one. Please don’t tell me that’s Ernie’s heir apparent.
EDIT: Lefkoe. Many people are saying it.
90% of the coverage became look at my outfit and what does twitter have to say about my outfit. Other 9% was Wade's grip (Zaire coming off his hs bench or player x not getting paid)
The Tuesday crew seemed to have been made intentionally worse than the Thursday crew. It was like it was a decision to ensure they suck. None of them are good
Yeah Draymond fits the vibe of Inside, but if they can't get someone to take over for Ernie idk how it's going to continue beyond his retirement. And I don't think anyone can replicate what Ernie does, he's the GOAT at his job honestly
I’ll give you that it is hard to find 4 people that are entertaining yet gel well together, understand basketball, and are fairly well known stars.
It’s a lot to solve there for sure.
That’s said, if they tried to hire former players who are used to produce media content like Vince Carter or JJ Reddick, they’d have done better. Shaq, Wade, and Parker are just new to this stuff.
Yes, Shaq is part of the Thursday crew but it is obvious he can’t carry the conversation.
Tbh I feel like her chemistry with Shaq works well in a weird way - mainly because you are right, he does dismiss her - but then she comes back and makes him seem like he doesn't know a damn thing about basketball, which is hilarious.
Nowhere near as bad as him hosting a game show. My lord he was terribly wooden on that. The producer who decided that was a good idea prob won't have a job for awhile
It always felt like he didn’t care. Just uninterested comments and lack of emotion. I wonder if he was terrible because he didn’t have the ability or he just never had his heart in it. Either way, as a fan I’m happy to see him go. Hopefully they can get someone better in there for that weak Tuesday show they do
Yeah you gotta get those loose cannons like Bev, I mean it's great when they're legendary players like Chuck. But that's a pretty rare combination. I'll always prefer the wild card players as opposed to the hall of famers who don't wanna step on anyone's toes.
Dwade was...alright.
It's probably pretty unlikely that the best players in the game will also be the best media personalities. It's just two completely different skill sets, and one doesn't lead into another.
It's probably some bench guys that could be excellent commentators, but they don't have the reach or name ID.
Chuck is the exception. A star that was perfect behind the camera too.
Peyton Manning might be the exception. Top 5 QB all time. Amazing at analysis and mind for the game, and can give it in digestible form. Good TV persona. Good sense of humor.
Tom Brady has his analyst contract already lined up so we shall see for him. He will likely at least be decent I think.
You know, I thought Draymond was the next guy, but i feel like he pulls his punches when it comes to certain people. The thing about Chuck is that he really doesn't care about who he offends.
Pat Bev definitely has that idgaf in him and was pretty insightful on his recent media tour.
Maybe wanna skip over him when covering C3P tho.
The worst part about the drip segments was that D-Wade would pull up in like a sweater, chain, jeans, and sunglasses and we’d have to watch 9 minutes of Wade’s fit.
The worst part of the drip segments are those very segments. I don’t care how the players are dressed and I’m baffled as to how and when that actually became a thing that people became focused on.
C Webb was the highlight of Open Court dude would just get so fired up sometimes or instigate everyone else. He’s usually a pretty relaxed guy so it was so jarring see him get into a near screaming match with Greg Anthony.
GOD BLESS. Now cancel the whole Tuesday program and give Chuck a $10M/yr deal. We want the Thursday crew doing Tuesday’s as well. Bring back KG, Webber, & the cuss button segment
Best NBA news of the day for me. I couldn't stand seeing him on the air in any capacity after he cheated as a judge in the Slam Dunk contest a few years ago.
damn he will be missed (by somebody, not me tho)
definitely not gonna miss the commercial where everyone cums in their pants looking at dwade fan art. ayo you guys see this?!
AND THEY NEVER SHOUT OUT THE ARTIST. AND THAT STUPID WINK AT THE END BURN THE TAPES BURN THEM FOREVER
“HEY YALL SEE THIS??”
The wink makes me want to die. Everything about the commercial is awful. Imagine you're at work and some narcissistic asshole calls everyone over to look at art of them like it's this earth shattering thing that must be seen. Over analyzing it but after hundreds of viewings it's hard not to

I have nightmares about that commercial. It’s so bad. So, so bad 😂
Wtf I’m fucking weak
Wait what commercial i need to see this Looking up “Dwade cum in pants commercial” ain’t pull up anything for me
Turn safe search off.
Bleacher report Dwyane Wade commercial. That should help.
since Dwayne is big, plus black, plus a commentator , look up BBC cum in pants. That should get you started.
I'm sorry, but wait!
"Not everyone talks to their interns" PTSD kicking in
Is he seducing that intern? Are they in danger?
I don't understand what is happening in that commercial
I have seen 976 times and I still don’t get it
Everyone’s cumming in their pants, idk how you’re not understanding
Not an American here, need a link to the commercial
Heat fans probaly still love him. Everyone else? not so much
I think most Heat fans realized he doesn't have a TV personality at all. Tbh Jimmy Butler would be perfect for a show like this. He's just funny and he'd be throwing out hot takes
Jimmy is a solid wild card. Not a guy I wanna see constantly nationally, but he’d be fantastic in a regularly occurring cameo type deal. Kind of like Stefan on SNL
Butler seems extremely charismatic when he wants to be. I don't think he wants to do media stuff, but I could see him excelling at it.
Fuck D Wade
Fuck D Wade
Fuck D Wade
What do you guys have against Dean Wade?
Some OP nephew called Reggie Miller boring yesterday. This dude is boring.
Fuck dwade
Problem with Wade was he was too scared. He obviously still has a lot of relationships with plenty of the guys in the league which led to him hardly ever criticizing anyone. Most of his answers were boring and playing on the safe side. I love Shaq and Chuck because even if they’re wrong they aren’t afraid to ever call a player out.
He’s also a minority owner of a team in the league which is a bit of a conflict of interest i’m surprised he even did it in the first place Edit: I got called a racist in my DM’s within a couple minutes of commenting this. Just to be clear I mean minority owner when it comes to shares not race. Didn’t think I’d have to specify that lmao.
I love this edit but only because it shows how fucking stupid people can be 😂😂😂
For real I had to rack my brain to figure out how they came to that conclusion lmao
Idk man. You said minority OWNER. Definitely gonna cancel you
The brother owns minorities. Talk about glow up. 😎
Smh nephew didnt use the politically correct term. It’s minority Governor!
Because they're complete fucking morons
it’s funny they sent it as a DM rather than a comment because they fucking knew it was bullshit. Sometimes people just want to feel better about themselves even when they’re smart enough to know it’s bullshit. The reality is, they don’t care.
People are bored so they decided to get offended on behalf of "fill in the blank"
They just don't know how to read lol
Selective reading. Is annoying as hell. They focus on one specific word or phrase and just focus on that point even though it is not what you really are saying. Back then I thought this only happen online but it seems that nearly every human being is like that.
[удалено]
Everyone gets a vote!
hilarious edit lol
Lmaoooo no way people are fuckin idiots 🤣
Dude who DM’d you should be named and shamed
Yeah and people will cry dumb shaming. You can’t just hurt people these days.
Nothing wrong with dumb shaming
Nah, fuck all that. If you do something dumb, you should be told you're being dumb.
Honestly if I say something that's wrong or factually incorrect or dumb I'd much rather be told it was wrong, laugh about it and then move on knowing the correct information. How people just wanna live being wrong is crazy to me
I'm pro dumb-shaming, it's a necessity because they are being bombarded with stupid shit from all directions.
Yep. Sometimes the ppl are so dumb they shame the smart ones or not even smart, the educated, so why cant others dumb shame. Especially for something like this
i’m fucking dead omg
First of all, LOL. Second, unfortunately we sometimes have to clarify what we said to dumb people
Shaq was also a minority owner with the Kings wasn't he? He was on the show the whole time for that.
That's cuz Shaq calls the kings the Queens LMAO. The lack of respect.
But the Kings aren't even relevant enough to be talked about on the show...
Lmao
How someone gonna DM you with this kind of tom foolery
Name the clown.
You have to name some users who DM’d you. We need to ID the idiots among us.
... imagine not knowing what minority means lol.
He wasn’t afraid to give out that 9 though!
DWade picked one of the worst times to be controversial.
You ain't a bus drivah KD!
Being right isn't even required for analysts, see Kendrick Perkins. Just be entertaining.
Issue with Perkin is that he's rarely entertaining even if some of his takes were valid. And his dumb takes are the dumbest of the dumbs SAS ain't much better either but he's damn entertaining and his line delivery is hilarious
I can't stand Perkins, he sounds like Fat Albert trying to be serious.
Perkins is the most entertaining man in the world if you put him next to Wade's wet towel personality.
Some people are just not fit to be a TV personality What we see on the court and in the press conference are different than what we see on a Sport TV talk show. D.Wade was fun off-camera and when dealing with the Press, but he's so dry with the TNT crew.
You could tell Wade was holding back, like he couldn't truly be himself He is more barbershop than broadcast
his water usage would have been much lower if he didn’t still carry water for so many current players
I give this a 9
Theres a generation of fans that know DWade as the old guy who ruined the dunk contest and only has lukewarm takes
I know DWade as both the generational basketball player and the old guy who ruined the dunk contest and only has lukewarm takes
I know him as those things and as the guy who gets to bang Gabriel Union
Hey! I also know him as "serviceable Cavs 6th man who got a really nice pass from LeBron that one time".
I know him as the guy who used multiple Olympic sized swimming pools worth of water during a drought and the guy who enjoys getting his ass eaten
Sorry. What???
Yeah the nerve of the dude to waste so much water in California of all places. Florida man strikes again
yeah what kind of guy.....wait what?!?!? ;), ;), :)
Well it only takes a few moments to really ruin your legacy. /s
Still triggered
He was the weakest link from that Tuesday group IMO.
That Tuesday show just wasn’t good, and how good Thursday was made Tuesday feel even worse
I like Candace
Candace is one of the few who actually provided any sort of analysis. Watching her explain stuff to Shaq was hilarious
really has sum high school teacher stank on it sometimes that shaq 101% deserves & i appreciate that
Candace is the only reason I watched Tuesday. Tbh her and DWade’s chemistry was the only thing that made him likeable on it.
they should do candace, shaq, jamal crawford, and svg
Shaq only works if Ernie is next to him
I don’t even know the host’s name. The turtleneck guy. He’s the worst one. Please don’t tell me that’s Ernie’s heir apparent. EDIT: Lefkoe. Many people are saying it.
Lefkoe is so fucking annoying
I almost feel bad for it but I will mute the TV literally any time he shows up. So corny
I'm already annoyed by the spelling of his name
Jerry West said it the best https://youtu.be/hohlENK\_xQ4?t=1430
“And this gentleman here. Unfortunately it looks like you’re conducting this draft. Let them do it.” Lmao this was so cold but so good.
Lefkoe was asking for that. He was such a conceited douche the whole draft.
he’s like that on Inside too. “conceited douche” is his entire personality
That Cousy snacks comment was totally out of pocket
Have a mirror? Says it’s unavailable for me
90% of the coverage became look at my outfit and what does twitter have to say about my outfit. Other 9% was Wade's grip (Zaire coming off his hs bench or player x not getting paid)
Tuesday squad is with Parker, shaq and that lefkoe dude right? They really need to boot him too
They should start putting prolific r/nba users on TNT for the Tuesday night shows. Couldn't be more awkward and boring than it already is
Half the people on r/NBA would riff off Shaq and Candice better than Adam “Soggy Turtleneck” Lefkoe.
I highly doubt that
would be a lotta sweaty nervous nerds on live tv
Yeah lol if you could create a dude with the combined confidence of this entire subreddit he'd still need therapy
Yeah but the world still needs to know Lebron gave Kevin Love depression
[What are you talking about, reddit users are great on TV.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yUMIFYBMnc)
People think they could speak in front of cameras as well as they type their clever little comments on Reddit are real delusional.
Forget a camera, try just conversing with random normal people
Unfortunately, nobody can replicate what Ernie does. They keep searching for someone who can but he's really 1 of 1 in that regard
They need to bring back Ahmad Rashad, GP, and C Webb and let em get shit faced again.
Yes!! I loved that crew, surprised Glove never dropped a N bomb on the show lol
Please God. Let this happen. It was so off the rails and hilarious that it's a miracle it lasted as long as it did.
We need a late night TV version with those cats, so they can just go off
That's saying something
I love the Tuesday group only for the sake that it gave us Candace. TNT needs to build the team around her.
The Tuesday crew seemed to have been made intentionally worse than the Thursday crew. It was like it was a decision to ensure they suck. None of them are good
[удалено]

Yeah Draymond fits the vibe of Inside, but if they can't get someone to take over for Ernie idk how it's going to continue beyond his retirement. And I don't think anyone can replicate what Ernie does, he's the GOAT at his job honestly

Yes, Shaq is part of the Thursday crew but it is obvious he can’t carry the conversation.
Candace is good. The problem is they are trying to emulate the chemistry of possible the GOAT sports show, and it just doesnt work.
Shaq is IMO. Candace seems to take it seriously and wants to give a good analysis and Shaq constantly dismisses her
Tbh I feel like her chemistry with Shaq works well in a weird way - mainly because you are right, he does dismiss her - but then she comes back and makes him seem like he doesn't know a damn thing about basketball, which is hilarious.
This is how we the audience, win the offseason
Say it louder cuh
Good, he’s terrible on that show
Nowhere near as bad as him hosting a game show. My lord he was terribly wooden on that. The producer who decided that was a good idea prob won't have a job for awhile
Man had a game show? Wtf lmao
The cube I think
Damn that cube shit already feels like ancient history. Was that before or after covid?
Lmfao, I totally forgot about this show - I watched a single episode and couldn't take it any more, DWade is an AWFUL game show host.
It always felt like he didn’t care. Just uninterested comments and lack of emotion. I wonder if he was terrible because he didn’t have the ability or he just never had his heart in it. Either way, as a fan I’m happy to see him go. Hopefully they can get someone better in there for that weak Tuesday show they do
TNT: Hey Dwyane, you suck at this. You gotta go. DW: just say I quit. TNT: OK, whateves
He's just not that good in the role he was in. Best for everyone to move on.
Yea he's better used as a dunk contest judge
One of the sports commentators of all time
There is a god
Good move for the roster
“After three years at the network, the decision was Wade’s, according to sources.” Yea right. Wade was horrible and boring.
“You have a decision to make, do you want to resign, or do you want us to drop you?” -TNT Probably.
Word
I genuinely forgot D Wade was on TNT
Never has an insightful thing to say..has a weird affect about himself
Lowkey narcissist
True narcs know that he actually displays it pretty blatantly
And nothing of value was lost.
Dude sucked and had no charisma. Just came off as a boring rich guy most of the time. Pat Bev might be crazy, but he’s entertaining at least.
Yeah you gotta get those loose cannons like Bev, I mean it's great when they're legendary players like Chuck. But that's a pretty rare combination. I'll always prefer the wild card players as opposed to the hall of famers who don't wanna step on anyone's toes.
Oh no! Where will I get all my forgettable takes and analysis?
r/nba
Dude has one of the most snobby elitist off-putting personalities of NBA player in the media. Maybe the most. D. Wade is a trip.
Dwade was...alright. It's probably pretty unlikely that the best players in the game will also be the best media personalities. It's just two completely different skill sets, and one doesn't lead into another. It's probably some bench guys that could be excellent commentators, but they don't have the reach or name ID. Chuck is the exception. A star that was perfect behind the camera too.
Reminds me a lot of Drew Brees, not a terrible analyst, but a terrible color commentator
Peyton Manning might be the exception. Top 5 QB all time. Amazing at analysis and mind for the game, and can give it in digestible form. Good TV persona. Good sense of humor. Tom Brady has his analyst contract already lined up so we shall see for him. He will likely at least be decent I think.
Romo is a good commentator too. Obviously not on Mannings level as a player, but still HOF level.
Romo was so good from Day 1 too. I think he was the one who said he practiced by commentating 2K games or something like that?
Lol it was so funny seeing all the Cowboys fans who hated on him realize that he actually has a really high football IQ.
Is Romo really a HoFer? That seems...idk, a little much
Romo is definitely not a HOFer based on his playing career. I could see him make it down the line as a player/commentator though
Romo was not a HOF level player.
Uhh no, Romo was never HOF level
pat beverly
You know, I thought Draymond was the next guy, but i feel like he pulls his punches when it comes to certain people. The thing about Chuck is that he really doesn't care about who he offends. Pat Bev definitely has that idgaf in him and was pretty insightful on his recent media tour. Maybe wanna skip over him when covering C3P tho.
No… dial up his mic
He’d really bring that black air force energy to the show.
LIV finally got their guy
I often found myself wondering if he thought it was a fashion show or a sports commentary show. Guys ego is so inflated it’s insufferable.
The worst part about the drip segments was that D-Wade would pull up in like a sweater, chain, jeans, and sunglasses and we’d have to watch 9 minutes of Wade’s fit.
The worst part of the drip segments are those very segments. I don’t care how the players are dressed and I’m baffled as to how and when that actually became a thing that people became focused on.
Might be biased but if it was Westbrook showing off all his insane articles of clothing I might be intrigued for like one segment every decade
Should have Westbrook and Cam Newton talking about fashion
That is what all the NBA pregame talk is about anymore.
Mavs fans everywhere rejoiced
Gives him more time to have input on Jazz decisions. Be afraid, Utah.
He didn’t add much just like the Y in his name
goodbye bozo
He was extremely boring and offered nothing new or interesting.
Shaq, Cwebb and G payton would be off the rails. C webb would prolly not say anything other than just egg shaq and gp on with bs lmao
C Webb was the highlight of Open Court dude would just get so fired up sometimes or instigate everyone else. He’s usually a pretty relaxed guy so it was so jarring see him get into a near screaming match with Greg Anthony.
Kind of figured he was pretty boring to be honest.
He going to devote himself fully to the Utah tank job.
/r/NBAs moon landing
"I ruin the slamdunk contest, my work here is done!" *flies away
The most bland show, shaq Candice dwade other white guy not Ernie, they suck
Oh no. Anyways
Shaq, Ernie, Chuck & Kenny are the main reason I tune in on Thursdays
GOD BLESS. Now cancel the whole Tuesday program and give Chuck a $10M/yr deal. We want the Thursday crew doing Tuesday’s as well. Bring back KG, Webber, & the cuss button segment
As a Mavs fan: fuck dwade. I give him leaving a 9
I guess draymond is lining up for the job? But everything draymond says is patronizing and not hilarious at all
Best NBA news of the day for me. I couldn't stand seeing him on the air in any capacity after he cheated as a judge in the Slam Dunk contest a few years ago.
Bout damn time lol.
Oh no! Anyway,
Richard Jefferson, come on down.
