How fat is Chuck these days??
Did he gain back the 100 pds he lost already??

If him calling us overrated makes us lose then I'd have a problem with what he said but considering anything out of his mouth has no baring on our games, I'm gonna keep it moving.
C.B. lol
I'm stunned. So simple a statement yet so accurate. Is being over-rated even possible if you have the best record ?
You want to know who is overrated ? The Lakers. The amount of love and attention that team gets with the record they have is ridiculous. Ok, so they have back to back les. But this league is about today, and what have you done for me lately.
You know who else is overrated ? The Oklahoma City Thunder. What the have they done ?
I had so much faith in this team last year when Ginobli started playing well, and then they got swept by the Suns. I truly am worried by the fact that Dallas & Lakers both have so many big men while Bonner is so inconsistent. It's like one day he shows up making a bunch 3s and the next game he disappears.
As good as the Spurs is this year, I think they still need to trade for another big, but I doubt that is going to happen.
Once again, he was probably drunk people!
Barkley talked himself into another hole tonight. He loves everyone, and makes these predictions then backs out with all these caveats.
He's the most overrated personality in sports.
Chuck: Listen, I like the Spurs, but the Mavericks are the best team in Texas... It's like I told Kenny in the green room, I mean, listen, that guy we met the other day that asked about Chandler, I mean, OKC isn't going to be in the second round... because that guy who asked about... look... I like OKC, Kenny Durant... I mean Kevin Durant is, look.... I like Kevin... but he's not the leader on that team... I mean... yeah... tell me who's the leader?
This "not as good as their record indicates" talk is nonsense. Who is as good as 28-4? Maybe a handful of teams in the history of the game. Doesn't mean they're not an excellent team or that they haven't been the best team in the league this season.
What does this team have to do to get people to buy in? They could win 20 in a row by 10 a game and if they beat a few bottom feeders in there or eked a few out, that would be what people would focus on most. I'd be saying this if this were the Lakers, Mavs, anyone (although in those teams cases, if they were doing this people would be entrenched on the bandwagon).
If you don't think they're the favorites to win the championship, fine. But to still be pretending it's even a question as to whether they're "for real" or "a contender" is ridiculous. I don't have the exact numbers on this and don't feel like taking the time to find them, but I'm almost positive they have the best regular season record and point differential in this calendar year. This isn't a "run" or a "streak" anymore and it hasn't been for a long time.
Dallas Mavericks vs Golden State Warriors... Dallas had a monster record.
Cleveland Cavaliers for the past few seasons...
True, but then the Lakers have shown enough times they are who they say they are. We all hope for that season when they aren't, but we sure expect they are.You want to know who is overrated ? The Lakers. The amount of love and attention that team gets with the record they have is ridiculous. Ok, so they have back to back les. But this league is about today, and what have you done for me lately.
Not overrated. Under performing, yes.
Maybe. They are neck and neck with Utah.You know who else is overrated ? The Oklahoma City Thunder. What the have they done ?
The way these few top teams have had monster starts, a record like OKCs looks pale, but they are still playing "top 8 in the conference" ball.
This!
No one will finish at that clip, but we are at that clip now. It is what it is at this time.
People here define "overrated" in two completely different ways but I think we all agree that we are not as good as our record says but on the other hand we don't get any media hype whatsoever.
Just imagine if Miami or the Fakers was 28-4....OMG the media people would go crazy.
But it's all good.
charles barkley isn't very good at gambling so his prediction of spurs failure always makes me laugh
charles this season = nba heel...
as for kenny smith has a change role this season
webber and earnie is just sitting there trying to correct these clowns into some sense
kenny smith is watchable this season when his not a heel disagreeing everything like previous years...
Barkley is going hardcore for the reverse jinx and people dont even see it.
He is a Spurs fan.
I wouldn't hold any weight on what chuck says. He is a borderline re anyway.
LMAO at all you butthurt Spursfans... I think he's half-right. The Spurs are overrated but probably not the most overrated.
Actually, I think he is right.
I doubt the Spurs will win a le scoring 3s and with Blair and Bonner playing significant minutes at center.
But if they manage to incorporate Splitter and turn defense up vry seriously, as they have shown in the second halves of the NO, Lakers and partially Dallas games, they could be underrated actually.
Don't agree with him, but I'm with those who think that 3 pointers won't win us a championship. Sometimes it looks like we can only shoot 3's. Manu also shoots way too many shots from down town. We wil also need Splitter in the Playoffs cause of his size. I don't think Bonner will be shooting 40% in the playoffs from 3.
Barkley is good entertainment and I still like the guy even if he is stirring the pot with the Mavs this season. He'll eat his words during the playoffs.
I'm not really concerned with what charles has to say, but he usually has a good point . Chuck seems to try and make a clean distinction between "good teams" and "elite teams". He thinks because of the spurs record many people think the spurs are an "elite team" when they are really a "very good team". My problem is that chuck overlooks the flaws of the teams he deems elite and sees what they are capable of at their best. Why can't he do the same for the spurs this season and realize that this team isn't close to peaking and has everything they need to be "elite" when it matters? double standard.
Chuck is TNT's version of Glenn Beck, they're paid to say crazy ........don't pay attention to that moron.
Barkley also said he was going to do a triathlon this year. He guaranteed that Yao Ming wouldn't score 19 points in a game his first season. He said that his gambling debts were just a misunderstanding. He said that everybody in Finland looks alike.
Barkley gets paid to be a circus clown. And he would do or say anything if it keeps him in doughnut money. He'll be there as long as people tune in.
"We don't take too much out of the win," Popovich said. "A lot of things I think we did pretty sloppily. We're thrilled to get a win on the road -- anybody would be -- but we didn't show very much. We didn't improve as a team, that's for sure."
Yeah, I agree with those statements. But at the end of the day, you take the 'W' despite not playing your best.
Our deficiencies are going to get exposed sooner or later. The reliance on the 3 pointer is a little disturbing but they also seem to be making them. Has anyone else wondered how James Anderson is supposed to crack the rotation once he's healthy ? Whose minutes will he be taking ? Manu's ? Jefferson ? Neal ?
