Charles Barkley on Draymond Green's jab: 'I was surprised how many people came to my defense'
· Yahoo Sports
"I had to get a kick out of Draymond. So when he made the line about he didn't want to be you with the Rockets, which everyone said, 'Well, look at Charles with the Rockets,' his numbers were as good as Draymond's with the Warriors. What I found interesting was afterwards, after all the blowback, Draymond on his podcast said, 'Kenny didn't hear the line, that's why he didn't respond,' which I thought was really weak of Draymond to say that. Kenny heard the line. Let's not play that. Because you guys didn't sell, in wrestling terms, WWE, you have to sell for your opponent. There was no selling there. What's been the fallout from that whole situation?" CHARLES BARKLEY: "I was surprised how many people came to my defense, to be honest with you. I'm not sensitive. I say stuff about players all the time. I hope they don't take it personally. I didn't get mad when he took a shot at me. I was embarrassed my last two years in Houston because I was shot. I did not play well at all. People would point out those two years I felt like I was shot, they were better than Dray's career numbers. I didn't take it personally. I don't get sensitive. I really appreciated all the people who went after Draymond for saying that."
