Charles Barkley and Draymond Green’s beef is getting old

The Charles Barkley and Draymond Green’s beef is getting a bit stale at this point.

These two have feuded for years since Barkley said he wanted to punch Green in the face. Of course, Green has fired back on a few occasions. They even squashed the beef at one point. But this season? It’s come back with a vengeance. Especially since, you know, the Warriors suck.

On the All The Smoke podcast with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson, Green was asked about the feud between the two and where it stems from. He responded by saying Barkley was jealous of the success that he’s had as a basketball player.

How did Barkley respond? In the pettiest way possible, of course. He called him the “worst member of the boyband who doesn’t realize he’s standing next to Timberlake.” Word, Chuck. Word.

A good beef makes for amazing content and pretty funny moments. And, for a while, this beef was good. Extremely good.

But it’s getting pretty childish now. Barkley is just lobbing personal insults at Green at this point and Green is responding by ridiculously trying to diminish Barkley’s Hall of Fame NBA career.

We have to be real about this one, y’all. It’s kind of jumped the shark. They need to be adults about this, squash it and never speak again. That’s the only sensible way to end this.
