MUMBAI: NBA.com will unveil Barkley Zone, the new video channel that will cover exclusive videos of TNT analyst Charles Barkley during the 2009 NBA Playoffs.

Additionally, four other video channels namely Highlights, Top Plays, NBA TV and TNT Overtime will also be launched. These video channels are part of the revamp exercise that NBA.com underwent especially for Playoffs.

Barkley Zone will have Barkley speaking on various issues with 'Sound Off' as he catches up with his ex-colleagues in a segment called 'Where have they been?'. The first to be in the show would be Mayor Kevin Johnson.

"Charles is one of the most popular broadcasters in sports television. Our goal is to offer compelling video content across all our digital platforms to our fans and Charles is the perfect fit to lead the way for our playoff site with a channel of his own," says NBA Digital SVP and GM Bryan Perez.
