The feud between Charles Barkley and Kevin Durant rested for a while, but the retired NBA player turned commentator hasn't changed his mind about the Phoenix Suns star.

Barkley fired some more shots toward Durant's way, calling the two-time MVP "very sensitive."

"He's very sensitive. Great player," he said during an interview with CBS.

"He's part of that generation who think he can't be criticized."

Barkley, who has become an NBA analyst and commentator after retiring, added that Durant should try to learn seeing comments about him as constructive.

"He's never looked in the mirror and said, 'Man, was that a fair criticism?'"

The NBA on TNT mainstay ended the discussion about Durant by saying the current generation is more tolerant than when he was playing.

History of feud

What Barkley said on CBS is just a repeat of how he described Durant back in March, to which the latter replied:

"This ain't gettin tiring chuck? I'll never respect the words that come out ya mouth fam just deal with it."

Barkley has said many things about Durant before this, like how he is not the bus driver who leads a team.

The Slim Reaper got back on the Suns' legend once after calling for preferential treatment for NBA players in getting the COVID-19 vaccine since they pay more taxes.

"I don't know why they still ask for this idiot's opinion," he commented on an IG post featuring Barkley's COVID-19 vaccine quote.
