Charles Barkley drops curse word on 'Inside the NBA'

Published March 16, 2017

ATLANTA (AP) Charles Barkley accidentally used a curse word on-air when describing the New York Knicks' play on TNT's ''Inside the NBA.''

During highlights of the Cavaliers' 119-104 win over New York in Cleveland on Thursday, Barkley used a synonym for excrement in reference to the Knicks.

Host Ernie Johnson immediately chided Barkley, who repeatedly apologized. Fellow analyst Shaquille O'Neal joked that he'd pay any fine from the Federal Communications Commission.

TNT's cameras also caught Barkley's shocked reaction after saying the word. He covered his mouth before laughing off the slip of tongue.
