Officially the most ridiculous thing that man has said and that's saying something. His trolling is usually entertaining but this is too much.

Steph and Klay ( and this year KD)?
In all seriousness though- the game was different went Barkley played, it was harder in my opinion. Barkley was a beast.

What do you expect from someone thinks excruciating pressure determines the outcome of a basketball game?

Skip is the white, slightly subdued Stephen A. Smith. Letting him walk was probably one of the few positive things ESPN has done in the last few years.

Barkley was way better on offense and he was a beast on the glass especially when you consider he is only 6-6. Draymond is better at everything else imo.

So, as a first option, Barkley was better. However, in a team like GSW where Draymond is surrounded with really good players that play to his strengths, imo Draymond's effect on the game could be close to or even higher than Barkley's effect as a first option.

Skip Bayless just hates Charles Barkley ever since he said that analysts like Skip don't know anything about basketball. Pure salt ever since

I wish people would stop starting threads based on Skip and SAS as if their opinions matter. They're the reason ESPN is firing people who actually know what they're talking about. (Yes I know Skip left ESPN)

Never watched Barkley play but he has an MVP ( in a era stacked with superstars) so you have to put some respect on his name. Although i love greens game, i'm not sure if he is that caliber of a player. I still think iggy is really underrated on that squad.

lol...well yeah, why would you need a guy like Barkley when you have Durant and Curry? The only real way to look at this is...who would you draft first if you were building a team? The answer: Barkley 100% of the time.

Sad thing is, is that ESPN offered him millions to stay while now letting go of legit journalists.

Not sure how people can watch him. Nothing but a bozo troll.

His race might matter if Stephen A. actually had insightful thoughts regarding race relations.

They're both just loud mouth talking heads though, white or black, no difference between the two.
