Charles Barkley questions Adam Silver on the NBA’s addressing of domestic violence incidents
Barkley’s question came at the end of Silver’s interview segment and it appeared that the former star was going off-script by asking the question, as he seemed to brush off a call for the show to go on commercial break.
The Athletic confirmed with a television source onsite in Denver who agreed to speak under the condition of anonymity that Barkley’s question was on the spot and not scripted.
Silvers answer was terrible. “Cutting edge therapist”??
Lmao, he was deep in his bag of words. Looking for answers but instead mixed up his words and response instead. Its like me getting called out by the professor to answer a question I wasn’t paying attention to lol.
💯 hahah, silver was just saying shit. Good for Barkley for putting him on the spot, it is an issue
Good on Chuck for keeping it real.
Gotta love Chuck!
No shit
I think this puts Chuck in the GOAT conversation
It’s Silver’s job to be able to answer these questions
Chaotic Good
Barkley is the goddamn GOAT
Yeah I’m gonna have to give credit to Barkley for that. That’s some actual journalism. Don’t care about status or what, ask the real question.
I know the answer will be some Blizzard level PR garbage. But man, what a bunch of cowards. You don’t need a PR team to just say how it should be:
Being good at something shouldn’t make you invincible and put you above the law.
Barkley’s the post career GOAT
it was a good job how charles framed it to ask it in a manner that wasn’t antagonistic too
Barkley going off script to ask question that matter, what an legend
Barkley is the real people’s champ
Fuck all the scripted softball prepared questions for interviews. Idk how much silver holds over interview if 75% 80% 90% or 99% are all pre-screened questions or he doesn’t do it…
But I appreciate people like chuck. Other smaller people do it and they may lose access to ever interview him again.
