Charles Barkley is an old-school NBA legend, known for his toughness and rugged play. However, even Chuck wasn't feeling what he saw during Game 6 of the Los Angeles Clippers vs. Phoenix Suns, when Patrick Beverley gave All-Star Chris Paul a hard shove from behind.

Charles Barkley was a recent guest on The Dan Patrick Show, and he spoke candidly about what he saw from the Clippers' feisty defender. Safe to say he wasn't a fan, calling it a “punk move”:

But, it was just a punk move by Pat Bev. You know, Dan when he almost tried to hurt Chris and danced over him when he was on the ground. Now, he can't take it when the rabbit’s got the gun. SO, it was just a punk move, Pat Bev is a good kid, he works hard. But, it was just a punk move, plain and simple,” Barkley said on The Dan Patrick Show.
Charles Barkley's take is definitely on point. No matter how heated the action is on the court, NBA players can't take it off of it. Trash talk should be the furthest anyone would go, but better make sure you can take whatever you dish out. Pat Bev has since apologized for his actions, which hopefully is the last of his sketchy altercations.
@CP3 emotions got the best of me last night gang. My bad wasn’t meant for you. Congrats on making it to the Finals. Best of Luck 🤞🏾
