Kerr chides Barkley following more anti-Warriors words
Charles Barkley won't outright say it, but it's pretty clear that he's not as enamored with the Golden State Warriors as everyone else.
Barkley stirred up controversy on Thursday's broadcast by obtusely proclaiming that the Warriors play "girly basketball" to discredit a 12-game win streak that was later snapped by the Houston Rockets.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr - who once worked closely with Barkley at TNT - joked that the bitter Barkley might have a vendetta against his team.
"It's getting to the point if our team walked in front of his house, he'd yell 'Get off my lawn,'" Kerr said according to Anthony Slater of the San Jose Mercury News.
This is only the latest in a long line of episodes between Barkley and the Warriors dating back to when they won it all in 2015, in spite of Barkley's proclamation that "jump-shooting teams can't win."
