Out of the eight teams left in the NBA playoffs, there’s one team that Charles Barkley doesn’t want to see win the championship title. He spoke against NBA super teams, especially the Brooklyn Nets.
Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden led the Nets in the first two games of the Eastern Conference semis series against Milwaukee Bucks. According to the leading pay per head bookie provider, Durant has been remarkable during the playoffs. However, Barkley is disappointed with the NBA’s approval of super teams.
Barkley said that Durant is a great player. However, he is not a fan of super teams. Barkley is rooting against the Nets because he is against super teams. Also, he said that if he wanted to win a championship, he could have joined Patrick Ewing, John Stockton, and Karl Malone. He blamed LeBron James for starting the super team trend in Miami. Since then, it was how teams played in the NBA.
Charles Barkley vs. NBA Super Teams
Barkley noted that super teams hindered the growth of smaller market franchises. According to sportsbook pay per head services sources, Barkley blamed super teams are detrimental to the league’s future.
During Barkley’s time, people were watching Sixers games even if they weren’t winning championships. The same was true with the Knicks. Also, the people watched the Pacers during Reggie Miller’s time. The same thing happened with Dominique Wilkins and the Hawks.
However, things have changed. Players fold to peer pressure and feel that their careers are bad without a championship. However, that was not the same during Barkley’s time.
According to DiscountPayPerHead.com sources, Barkley is part of the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament. Other celebrities in the lineup are Patrick Mahomes, Justin Timberlake, and Aaron Rodgers. Also, Barkley added that he wants to play and have fun on the golf course.
