Charles Barkley sends a clear message to LeBron James, Stephen A. Smith in the middle of the current quarrel

It is not a secret for anyone that LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith argue in recent weeks, and this week, he has reached new peaks after James appeared on the “Pat McAfee Show” and launched a slight tint in the direction of Smith, stressing that he “lacked the whole point” of the reason why Lakers-Knicks for respect for his son and his compatriot Lakers, Bronny James.

However, since that time, Smith and, clearly now, James has not let the situation go out, causing many reactions through the NBA landscape, including the legend and personality of TNT Charles Barkley. He appeared on Friday on the “Dan Patrick Show” and revealed his opinion to James and Smith.

“They both had a terrible week,” said Barkley. “LeBron, it is too big to be this type of intimidator. To intimidate Stephen A. And to intimidate Brian Windhorst … and I always liked Lebron, but being a tyrant, that turned me off.”

Barkley added: “But I would say this: Stephen A., the way he reacted was so lame and weak. Stephen a.’Sa good guy, man. LeBron, I blame him for having launched intimidation, to make the Pat spectacle, people of intimidation.

So there are only losers in this scenario, and what bothers me the most is that they are both good guys. LeBron started, and Stephen A., I’m not sure what he was trying to do … He just worsened things, worse and worse.

The situation has certainly increased in recent days after James’ interview. After making comments that clearly distraught Smith, he did not hesitate to applaud with his own criticism from James, which he did when opening the program of “First Take” with a 15 -minute rant.

However, with the NBA qualifying series on the horizon, the cover of Smith and ESPN of James and Lakers will certainly not shrink, because they are in the middle of a clear race in the playoffs.
