TNT’s NBA Broadcasting Legacy Faces Final Chapter Tonight

If the Pacers win one more time, they will eliminate the Knicks and end a TV era that made NBA entertainment famous for decades. The Pacers have built up a big lead in the series and need only one more win to win the playoff matchup and end TNT’s basketball coverage.

TNT’s exit from NBA broadcasting will shake up the entire sports media industry. ESPN, NBC and Amazon Prime Video will start broadcasting the league in 2025-26 after the network’s exclusive contract finishes this season. At the end of this season, TNT leaves professional basketball after a long partnership.

Inside the NBA’s Cultural Impact

The show coaching from Shaquille O’Neal, Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith and Chuck Barkley revolutionized sports analysis by adding fun and basketball experience. Thanks to these four stars, the show has brought us interesting content and phrases that are different from regular sports shows and changed how many people watch sports.

What Lies Ahead

Victory for Indiana in Game 5 would mean viewers see the final TNT NBA game, ending an era known for sharp programming ideas and one-of-a-kind commentary. As part of the media rights deal, games will be split among several platforms, meaning how fans obtain NBA content will no longer be the same.
