Poor Kenny.

Did anyone else see him going ballistic when Paige hit that three? I get he's a UNC alum and all....but wasn't he working? I can't imagine the outrage if Bilas or JayWill acted like him for just one single segment. He's actually worse than what Hubert used to be.

I saw it, and he was definitely working at the time. Not very professional of him. And yes, I can imagine the uproar if Bilas/Williams/Hill did that.

Was Barkley (a) trolling Kenny, (b) an abc fan, or (c) appreciating an exciting finish?

I actually think Kenny is pretty good and fair, and I have no problem w/ his letting a little of his loyalty show off camera like that.

Or (d) watching his bet cash?

I think Barkley enjoyed celebrating in front of Kenny's face - no doubt. But also, let's remember that Sir Charles played eight years in Philadelphia for the Sixers. I'm sure he's proud of his affiliation with the city of Philadelphia.

I was thinking the same thing when that happened. Sick of the double standard, I'm so glad Barkley did that right in Ant head's face.

Barkley is a fixture in Philadelphia and probably had many sweethearts at Nova.

Kenny Smith is a peon and Barkley was perfect and is sooooooo funny.
