Charles Barkley criticizes Joe Mazzulla for attempting to block Royce O’Neale’s shot, stating he would have reacted differently. Barkley expresses concern about potential injury and emphasizes the need for caution in such situations.

“I would’ve knocked the hell out of him, I’m not gonna lie,” Barkley said. “I would’ve hit him … I’ma tell you why I don’t like it. What if he stepped on his ankle and hurt himself badly. He can’t do that, come on, man.”
