00:00Story from the weekend was the Luka Doncic trade, so let's hear from Charles Barkley

00:04on what he thinks is going on with this trade. We know conspiracy Kurt has gone one direction,

00:09but this is what Charles Barkley said about the Luka Doncic trade to the Lakers.

00:13Let me tell you something, the only people know Luka Doncic is the Dallas Mavericks. Guys who've

00:19been with him for years, who are around him every day. He's a great player, he's a great player,

00:25but all us talking heads, they must know something we don't know. Because listen,

00:33he's been hurt, everybody complains about his conditioning, but once you give a guy

00:38five years, $350 million, y'all are stuck together for life.

00:44Okay, so he is suggesting that this was not a dodo bird dumb move by the Mavericks,

00:54not a conspiracy as Curtis is suggesting for NBA ratings and rivalry purposes,

01:01it's just that they do not believe he is, they don't want to be stuck to him on the Supermax,

01:08and that there's something wrong with him. Whether it's the fact that he's big boned,

01:14or he's not a guy that, I don't know, doesn't play enough defense, or he's just not a good

01:20team guy, I don't know. That is what Sir Charles Barkley is suggesting.

01:25Yeah, I think it's stupid, because even if it is, I'm kind of with Shyam on this one,

01:31he was just in the NBA finals last year, he took his team to the NBA finals. Does he have some

01:39issues with his weight that he probably, those are all fixable, those are all things that you

01:44can do. The fact that you're willing to cut bait on a guy like that because you're afraid if you

01:50give him X amount of dollars, he's not the guy that can get you over the hump.

01:54Yeah, get him a personal chef, or get him his own trainer Dan, or whatever.

01:59Ivan being fat, he's one of the five best basketball players on the planet, what are we doing?

02:04I guess the Joker's not in great shape physically, at least he don't look that way,

02:08and he still goes out there and averages a triple-double.
