While Charles Barkley called the NBA’s inaugural in-season tournament a “resounding success,” he also had some choice words and a warning for the Lakers following their championship game victory over the Pacers.
In short, Barkley warned that if Los Angeles follows through on raising a banner for their in-season tournament title, he will publicly put them on blast.
“We’re not raising banners, we’re not doing parades … The Lakers better not put up an in-season banner—listen, man, if they do that, I’m gonna roast their ass on TV … If they put that in-season tournament banner up, Dan, I’m gonna roast them on television,” Barkley said to Dan Patrick during a segment on the Dan Patrick Show.
