The media asked retired NBA player-turned-TNT analyst Charles Barkley questions regarding the trade requests of Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden and he took his answer to the next level.

“You can’t take my money and then say you want to divorce me in six months to a year,” Barkley explained. “You can’t take all my money and then say ‘hey I want a divorce,’ so I’m pretty sure that’s the next thing to come out of the CBA. I don’t think there’s no doubt in my mind that these guys are going to get locked out.”

“You can’t treat these owners and fans like crap,” he added. “Which these players are starting to do now with load management and then demand to be traded.”
