It's kinda great to see the Celtics doin well again cuz that was so much fun in my day to go to the Boston Garden and they spit at you and throw things at you and talk about your mom. It sounds like dinner at Kenny Smith's house.
Charles Barkley
They run like deer, jump like deer and think like deer.

Charles Barkley
I'm so sick and tired of people in the media telling us that because of the war, sports aren't important. Fans need sports. We'd have only crime and war to watch on TV if not for sports.
Charles Barkley
I always laugh when people ask me about rebounding techniques. I've got a technique. It's called just go get the damn ball.
Charles Barkley
Every time I hear the word conservative it makes me sick to my stomach.
Charles Barkley
The only difference between a good shot and a bad shot is if it goes in or not.
Charles Barkley
You know what I always say about basketball whenever anybody tried to tell me the Knicks are gonna be good: They're old. Old people don't get healthy. They die.
