Barkley clapped back, “I wasn’t riding around on Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade’s coattails.” Things got noticeably awkward for both Ernie Johnson and Kenny Smith, who were stuck in the middle of the exchange. The banter didn’t end there. Shaq called Charles a bum multiple times, questioning why he’s in the Hall of Fame. See below:
