Gentlemen - Let me say up front - I LOVE the NBAonTNT ! You all are my favorite NBA commentators (Mark Jackson and Reggie Miller being close seconds). That being said, while I appreciate sarcastic, playful banter as much as the next person; I feel you crossed to line on Wednesday evening on 2 fronts: 1. Charles Barkley mangling and making fun of Ime Udoka's name. Please respect Mr. Udoka enough to learn to pronounce his name correctly. Just as it was respectful for elected officials to mispronounce and disparage Vice President Kamala Harris' name, it's equally disrespectful for you to do the same to Mr. Udoka. 2. Joking about Kyrie Irving's fasting observance. While you search for 'a religion where you can eat', you may be interested to know fasting is a spiritual within Christianity, Judaism as well as Islam. As talented, knowledgeable and distinguished athletes with keen basketball insights to offer, you don't have to be 'witty' at the expense of your fellow athletes. Just my 2 cents..
