The saying is, “If you are going to go, go all out,” and because of LeBron forced departure — thanks to the Orlando Magic — it was also time for the TNT NBA team to pack up their things and leave as well… Last broadcast of the season and all that. No doubt understanding this, too, Charles Barkley decided he’d let everybody get a taste of the good cheer he brings to TNT’s broadcasts.
