Doesn't matter. Utah ain't going anywhere unless they run into the Warriors.

LOL are you serious? I wonder if he picked the Jazz to win it all during the Stockton-Malone days... That would explain a lot of things.

Yeah, I don't see why we don't crown the Suns already.

He is just trying to be different. 4-5 matchup of Laker-Jazz would end in 5 games with Lakers winning. Its all about matchup for Utah.

Man, Barkley and Malone used to get into some real heated battles. Both of those guys were a couple of the most physical power forwards that ever played. It was fun to watch.

But anyway, Barkley just barks out the first thought that enters his brain. You can't take him seriously, although I wouldn't count the Jazz out.

Almost as bad as Magic's call of the Knicks making the Playoffs.

He picked them last year over the Spurs in the WCF. So, he has love for Utah I guess.

The only exercise Barkley gets these days is jumping from one bandwagon to the next.

Barkley is one of the best commentators out there right now. He's wrong like 99% of the time. It's hilarious.

An insightful comment by Charles Barkley.

He picked the Lakers to miss the playoff this year and the previous two years.
