“Want to punch Draymond Green’s a** in the face”: When Charles Barkley had enough with the Warriors DPOY and went off on NBAonTNT

Draymond Green apparently has too many championships to activate Charles Barkley’s ‘GUARANTEE’ button on NBAonTNT. 

Draymond Green has fit in seamlessly within the NBAonTNT crew for the past few days alongside Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal, Ernie, and Kenny Smith. It’s obvious that the former DPOY has an incredible feel for the game and is able to translate his knowledge from on court schemes to off the court analysis. 

Along with breaking down these past few Playoff games, he’s also indulged in the usual antics the guys on set get up to every night on air. Everything from racing to the big screen with Kenny Smith to the popular ‘Gone Fishin’ segment has been a treat to watch with Green mixed in with the bunch.

Charles Barkley has shown to have great chemistry with Draymond ever since the latter has started to appear on NBAonTNT. After having put aside their differences a couple years back, the two have shared a relationship on air similar to that of Shaq and Chuck’s, with both ribbing on each other with some lighthearted back-and-forths. 

Draymond Green hilariously has too many championships to use Charles Barkley’s button. 

One of the most popular NBAonTNT tropes is Charles Barkley’s ‘GUARANTEE’. The Suns legend pulls one out every now and then whenever he feels as though he’s confident in a particular team winning a series or a game that night. Considering how confidently Chuck yells out his ‘guarantee’, he’s almost always been wrong on his predictions.

Draymond Green took to the set last night to indulge in his own ‘guarantee’ moment but was hilariously told that he has too many championships to activate the newly installed button. This is of course implying the fact that Barkley, who has won 0 titles in his career is the only one who can use the button due to his postseason misfortunes. 

It’ll be interesting to see how well Chuck predicts the next few series that are coming up in the second round of the Playoffs.
