$1.5 Million – Ernie Johnson
We have yet another star of Inside the NBA. The show would not be the same without Ernie Johnson, who keeps Shaq and Barkley from killing each other. Aside from that, he also offers insights that nobody else could. He has shown us that he is a basketball expert and spreads his talent in other sports as well. Not only is he a thoughtful and intelligent guy, but he makes us crack up a lot as well.
Lots Of $$$ – Shaquille O’Neal
You just know that Shaq does not do it for the money. After all, he has more money than we can even dream of! While Inside the NBA was doing just fine before him, he made the show a lot better when he joined the team. To be honest with you, we do not know how much the basketball icon earns for his work on the show. We wonder if he turned down payments like he has done in the past.
