Charles Barkley is known for his brutal honesty, and he did not hold back when taking a jab at Kenny Smith on Thursday night.
The matter began when TNT showed LeBron James talking with Bill Clinton, who attended the Los Angeles Lakers’ win over the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center. Smith said he would be recognized by the former president, but Barkley disagreed.
Chuck joked that Clinton would say hello if he saw Barkley or Shaq, but would ask for a hot dog from Smith.
That’s ruthless, but exactly what Chuck does best.
Smith met President Clinton during a Houston Rockets visit to the White House for winning the NBA championship.
Don’t feel too badly for Smith about being mocked by Barkley; Kenny’s gotten plenty of shots in at Chuck over the years.
