NBA legend Charles Barkley took a playful shot at Elkins Park rapper Lil Dicky’s NBA Championship pick during their appearance on Jason Kelce’s show, They Call It Late Night, writes TOI Sports Desk for MSN.
In the show, the host mentioned Dicky was a big fan of Philadelphia 76ers. The rapper then said he had bet $750 on his team winning the NBA Championship title this season.
Barkley disagreed with his prediction, using the opportunity to make that clear.
“Well you’re going to die,” he said during the show.
Later, as Dicky tried to explain his reasoning and why he believes the Sixers could make a comeback this season, Barkley doubled down.
“That’s a lot of ifs,” he said. “G*d d*mn! That’s a lot of ifs brother.”
At least Dicky was not the only one to receive Barkley’s ridicule. One of the top analysts of the NBA also took a shot at the League itself.
“I don’t like the current landscape [of the NBA] at all,” he said. “To make 30, 40, 50 million dollars to play basketball two days a week in a row, if that’s too much to ask, please tell me.”
