NBA star and current basketball commentator Charles Barkley earlier responded to Nets forward Kevin Durant. Speaking about Durant's previous recoil, Barkley said: "That doesn't bother me at all, it bothers himself. You all know that he is a sensitive man. ”
Barkley said on the TNT show: "Do you think they've hoisted the play-off flag? I can also talk about him with Russell (Westbrook), James (Harden), Sergey Ibaka. KD is a fantastic player. The point I want to make is that when you're driving yourself, it's a completely different story. ”
Kenny Smith echoed: "There's a difference between winning a championship and being a champion. ”
