"But you played in the NBA for 16 years."

Kenny Smith immediately went on to say.

"Man, data is just data. I watched the game this time and his 10th assist was a brush. Without that, we wouldn't be discussing him."

"So 14 points, 13 rebounds, 9 assists and 3 blocks is not good enough? Charles, you are biased."

"That's the effect of Texas' tactics. They used a very good small lineup. Kenny, you were blinded by the data."

The familiar scene of Barkley-Smith fighting each other is finally here!

The harmonious painting style is not suitable for both of them!

"Charles, why did you say that?"

Then Ernie Johnson spoke.

As soon as he spoke, the argument between the two stopped.

Barkley was ready to talk, while Smith stood aside and said, "It depends on what you say."

It turns out Johnson is in the middle for a reason.

"His wingspan is his greatest talent. In addition, his basketball IQ is excellent, and his passing and defense are also excellent in the NCAA. He will be an NBA player, but I don't think he is now."

Seeing Kenny Smith about to interrupt him, Barkley didn't stop:

"His height and playing style are the biggest factors restricting him. If he goes to the NBA to play small forward, then he should find ways to improve his lateral movement and help defense, and at the same time improve his breakthrough skills. If he plays as a power forward

…”

When he said this, Barkley straightened his suit and put on a cool look.

For no other reason than because this is his area of ​​expertise.

"He is short in height. He needs to make himself stronger. He should realize what kind of opponents he will face in the interior after entering the NBA. At the same time, he must also improve his interior offensive skills. The NBA does not

It will give him so many outside shooting opportunities."

Smith said nothing after Barkley finished speaking.

Because he suddenly felt that what Buckley said this time was quite serious.

This is not consistent with the Barkley he knows!

But this is not because Buckley suddenly cheated, but because this is actually his own personal experience!

He played power forward in the NCAA back then, but after entering the NBA he was bound to face a choice due to his height.

What he said is actually his own experience.

So this is also the reason for Smith's silence, because in a strict sense, Buckley's suggestion is not only not prejudice, but also a good suggestion.

Staying in the NCAA and enriching his offensive skills may indeed be a better choice for Lin Ying.

Although the training effect in the NBA is definitely better than that in the NCAA, it also depends on whether there are opportunities.

Only players who are drafted high by weak teams will receive that kind of treatment.

For the rest, even if you are drafted high, it may not be better if you are drafted by a strong team.

The 2003 platinum generation draft is the best example.

The hypothesis most people will raise is whether Milicic would be better off if he was drafted by the Nuggets or another team.

But there is another hypothesis. If Milicic chooses to continue training in Europe for a year after being selected to polish his skills better before joining the Pistons, what will be the result?

“So how far do you think UT can go?”

Kenny Smith changes the subject.

"The University of Texas' next opponent is the University of North Carolina."

Ernie Johnson gives timely information.

"Michael's alma mater."

Kenny Smith followed suit.

His follow-up was very interesting.

In addition to the connection between North Carolina and Jordan, there is also an established fact that Barkley and Jordan are the closest friends in the NBA.

Just two years ago, Barkley and Jordan had a famous scene on Oprah.

"Don't you think Jordan was handsome when he first entered the league?"

"He is handsome? He is so handsome! If you were worth 300 million, 400 million or 500 million US dollars, you would be handsome too."

"He always uses the 6 championships to criticize me, but I am not as lucky as him. I have teammates like Pippen. If I partnered with Pippen and Rodman, I would also have those rings.

.”

…

The effect of that wave of Barkley's confrontation was explosive.

But Jordan's reaction was more of laughing.

Barkley understands the art of speaking and knows how to speak to make Jordan comfortable.

On the other hand, you can actually feel the relationship between them.

Not just anyone can make jokes about the God of Basketball.

"I think there is only one way North Carolina can lose, and that is if Michael goes to the scene."

This sentence directly made Smith and Johnson's eyes widen.

Barkley's words are not surprising, and he keeps making fun of his friends!

Don't think these two are overreacting.

Now is not the time for everyone to know the "Boss Jordan loses" meme!

You must know that Jordan only became the Bobcats' minority owner in June last year!

Buckley's words directly had a full effect on the program.

Everyone is curious why Barkley suddenly said this!

"You know I go to football games when I have time, I love that so much, I'm a big Brady fan because every time I go to his games I enjoy the feeling of winning.

But there was only one time, when Michael and I were there, that Brady and the Patriots lost, and damn, that felt bad!"

Barkley spoke seriously, but Smith and Johnson couldn't stop laughing.

"Charles, that's just a coincidence. One thing can't explain anything."

Smith said.

"And last year, it was related to North Carolina. I remember that North Carolina was still leading in the first half of that game, maybe 7 or 8 points, and then he told me that he would go to the scene to support his students.

Brothers, what do you know next, North Carolina lost in the end!"

Barkley immediately showed his hands when he said this.

This time Smith and Johnson were completely laughing.

They felt that Buckley must be making up stories, but the problem was that he was recording a show.

If this paragraph is released, Barkley will never be able to lie if he dares to say this.

"So the only prerequisite for North Carolina to lose is that Michael will be there."

Buckley repeated conclusively.
