Someone should have brought the curse button from Area 21 to the "Inside the NBA" crew during its TNT broadcast on Thursday night.

While recapping the Cleveland Cavaliers' big 119-104 victory over the visiting New York Knicks at Quicken Loans Arena, Charles Barkley accidentally swore while talking about the floundering Knicks, who have now lost six of their last seven games.

"I was talking to Spike Lee All-Star Weekend. He's dying to get kicked out of the garden. He don't want to watch this shit every ...," Barkley said before catching his on-air lapse.

Fellow analyst Shaquille O'Neal couldn't contain his laughter afterward, especially after Barkley apologized to all of the kids ... for the network showing another Knicks game.
