NBA legend and TNT analyst Charles Barkley hilariously ripped into the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers during TNT's post-game show on Inside the NBA on Thursday, April 25th.

Barkley delivered his message alongside his co-hosts Shaquille O'Neal, Ernie Johnson, and Kenny Smith.

"All you people who've been kissing up to the Lakers and the Warriors all year talking about they're gonna make a run. You know where they gonna run their a** to? The Bahamas... I told y'all all along," the 1993 NBA Most Valuable Player said on the show.

The 61-year-old also took a subtle jab at rival network ESPN for continuing to put coverage on the two teams despite their lack of competitiveness.

"I get tired of these fools on the other network... I told y'all, the Lakers and the Warriors both stink," the 11-time NBA All-Star added.

Charles Barkley criticizes Lakers and Warriors all season long

This isn't the first time Barkley has blasted the two California teams this season.

The five-time All-NBA First Team member previously made similar comments in March 2024, criticizing ESPN for their extensive coverage of the Lakers and Warriors despite being in the play-in range.

The Warriors missed the playoffs after losing their first play-in game against the Sacramento Kings, while the Lakers are on the brink of being swept by the Denver Nuggets, facing a 0-3 deficit.
