yes. Said it first on ESPN radio to Lupica & Legrecca who too clueless and detached themselve to have corrected him. Then Barkley repeated it on national television. And still no one corrected! That why I take 97.5% of the media with a grain of salt!

Unreal. Sounds like he's there to collect a paycheck and not much else. One of the best lockdown defenders in the league and he knows nothing about him?

It is inexcusable. The Knicks were on TNT and bunch of times last year. My guess is he got too caught up in the Memphis game early last year when Shump started at PG and went like 1-18 from the field. After that game Shumps role completely changed

I know. The guy is entertaining in a buffoonish way but it is obvious that he doesn't spend a lot of time on the preperation end of things for his job.

Barkley just said the Nets bench is better. When Ernie and Kenny brought up JR Smith and Novak Barkley said but JR is a starter. I rest my case.

Barkley says the Nets are better at every position except Melo's.

Thus far, this season, Felton has been better than Deron. Melo is obviously better than Wallace.

The Knciks bench is also better. I don't get what Barkely is talking about.

It's obvious Chuck Barkley is afraid to give the knicks any credit, even Shaq gave them props.

How many more games do the Knicks play on TNT, how long will it take for Barkley to stop hating ?

I've always liked Barkley as a person, but as a basketball analyst he's nothing more than a laughing stock tool. Speaks with little knowledge in regards to the game of basketball. He's pretty much continued to state how the "average fan from home" doesn't know the game of basketball but when in reality, it's Barkley himself that has an overall lack of insight. This isn't only in regards to the Knicks either. He may have been one of the greatest PF's of all-time, but when it comes to breaking down a game and/or different types of aspects of basketball; Barkley fails. Remove Barkley from TNT and we'll start to see pure basketball talk. With Barkley on set? He's just a tool.

He stated that Miami would beat the Knicks like a drum tonight without Melo. He just doesn't understand that we're one of (if not) the deepest team in the game today.

Barkley will be at the Garden next Thursday calling the Laker game. I hope Knicks fans let him hear it. Give him an ol' Garden welcoming

Calling the game? Looks like I'll be watching the game on mute. I'd rather try to announce the game play to play to my lil daughter (watches every game with me only two years of age) before allowing her to hear Sir.Charles bash our Knicks for 4 quarters strong.
