Charles Barkley said you're up 25, 28 points, and you're just hocking up 10 straight threes. Who the hell is coaching that team? Is anybody have a brain over there? That's what Charles Barkley said. Now, I have massive respect for coach Mitch Johnson. I love what Victor Wembenyama is to the NBA. I love Stefan Castle.
