I hope this happens so bad. A Kobe/Shaq duo would be fantastic television.

Kenny Smith's dream may come true ... 'cause "Inside the NBA" has reached out to Kobe Bryant to see if he wants a job, TMZ Sports has learned.
Both Kenny and Shaq have publicly talked about wanting Kobe to join the panel on the TNT show after he retired from the NBA ... and now, our sources tell us the courting has officially begun.
It's unclear if producers are trying to lock Kobe up to join the guys for the current NBA playoffs ... or if they're looking more toward getting him as a regular for next season.
As one well-placed source connected to the show put it ... "We'd love to have Kobe."
Our sources say Kobe is still evaluating all of his post-NBA options and hasn't made a decision about what he wants to do ... but ya gotta believe he's taking this offer seriously.
#MambaIn ?

Doesn't seem like a personality fit to me.

I'm not sure if Kobe is as funny as the rest of the crew.

Everybody hated on Shaq being on there and now he is the life of the show. Kobe might be excellent on the show. All you can do is give it a shot. Everybody hating on my boy before he ever even gets on the show lol.

Kobe would be lame AF on there, dude has zero personality.
Best thing that would come of this if Kobe were to join, would be the endless possibilities with the "Hey Kobe, how my arse taste" sound bite Shaq provided us with years ago.

yea i don't get why they added shaq. they already had that funny, fat, dumb oaf in Barkley, they didnt need a second one.

Honestly I'd rather see Kobe pull a Brad Daugherty and cover soccer...MLS or Premier.
TNT's crew is excellent and even there secondary guys...Grant Hill, CWebb, Steve Smith,Brent Barry,etc. are awesome.

Shaq is not the life of the show. Hes not even the second best.
Barkley is the life of the show.
And I'm as big of a Kobe fan as there is but this just doesn't seem like his thing.

Reminds me of when NBC was courting MJ after his second retirement. Except the NBA and NBC and MJ were the GOATs.

Lol at everyone saying kobe would be terrible and that he has no personality. He'd be perfect for either inside the NBA or NBA countdown

I don't think his personality would fit with the rest of the crew and I think he would want to act like the #1 guy immediately.
Plus adding Shaq was a little different because he has the perspective as an MVP Center.

I just don't see where he fits. Shaq and Barkley play well off each other. Kenny does a good job at getting a few jabs in as well. I would like to here Kobe's take though on NBA matters. I feel like he'd be the most informed of the crew of today's NBA. I always chuckle when Barkely talks about jump shooting teams being shite playoff teams when the Spurs, Heat and Warriors championship teams were in the top five for three attempts iirc.

This seems like a much better fit. Let Doug Collins call games again.
