Hall of Famer Charles Barkley calls Warriors' criticism of profane jeers against Draymond Green 'weak'

If there’s anyone who knows how it feels to be on the receiving end of expletive jeers from thousands of people, it’s Hall of Famer Charles Barkley. As such, he weighed in on the purported controversy between Golden State Warriors players and family members, and the Boston crowd at TD Garden on Wednesday.

Klay Thompson, Steve Kerr and Hazel Renee, the wife of Draymond Green, criticized Boston fans for chanting “F—k you Draymond” every time the Golden State forward touched the ball during the Dubs’ Game 3 loss to the Celtics.

Speaking with Justin Termine and Eddie Johnson on SiriusXM, Barkley called the criticism from the Warriors circle “weak,” especially since Warriors fans were rather antagonistic towards the former Round Mound of Rebound during the Western Conference Finals to the point where Barkley nearly retaliated.
