NBA legend Charles Barkley and Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green share chemistry like few tandems have in sports media. It comes from a place of love, albeit with just a hint of animosity at times.
That chemistry was on full display during TNT’s alternate telecast of Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis, where the two traded jabs throughout the blowout exhibition. As soon as the game came to a close with a 211–186 Eastern Conference victory, Barkley told Green, “Good luck in the play-in [tournament].” It was, of course, a playful shot at Green’s team, which sits in 10th place in the Western Conference.
Green, a four-time NBA champion, took a shot at Barkley’s zero NBA titles as a response.

“That is crazy right now,” Green said. “You are not acting like that. Here Chuck, take my ring.”
Before that, Barkley served a perfect one-liner to Green, who was teasing him for spending just $1,000 on his suit.
“Hey, you know what’s funny about that?” Barkley asked. “You know who was asking about you the other day?”
“Who’s that?” Green responded.
“Nobody,” Barkley quipped.
Chuck: "You know who was asking about you the other day?"
