Charles Barkley Is Disgusted With The NBA Finals - Hopped On TV Strictly To Talk Golf, Make Fun Of Grant Hill And Vince Carter

You don't bring Charles Barkley on to have a nuanced take on a basketball game. Not one when he deems it over. That'd be pointless. We really want to hear Charles Barkley break down schemes? Absolutely not. I want to hear him talk about how it's pointless to even mention the game he's sitting there for. I want him to tell Grant Hill he's a coward and call Sam Mitchell 'one-legged Sam.' These are the important issues at hand here. 

This is why Charles Barkley is the biggest free agent in sports - or at least going to be. It doesn't matter what show he's on, he knows how to make it good. You can put him on hockey, golf, basketball, whatever, it doesn't matter. He doesn't need to talk about the sport, he can just shoot the shit and we'll all watch. Hell, TNT had the US game last night. Put him on soccer, let him break it down and even better would be pairing him with Clint Dempsey. Two guys who will talk shit to each other no matter what's going on. 

Even better is Chuck knows what's important. It's golf season. Forget the fact it's even US Open week. Everyone who plays the smallest amount of golf is trying to get out there and get 18 in whenever they can. That's what Chuck is doing, except with other stars and playing big time courses. Don't ask him about the NBA Finals, what the hell is he gonna say - his words there. Let him insult Grant Hill and Vince Carter and for the love of God someone film them playing golf today. Need to see what's at stake, what's being said and all the swings. It'll be better than the NBA Finals anyways.
