Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’Neal have been laying into Joel Embiid on TNT throughout the Philadelphia 76ers’ Eastern Conference semifinals series against the Toronto Raptors.

Mostly for not showing up. 

The Philadelphia Sixers big man addressed the criticism before Game 7 of the series on Sunday, dismissing Barkley’s opinion.

“Charles, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about sometimes,” Embiid said. “He just be saying whatever he wants to.”

Barkley heard the comments and responded before Game 7.

Tough night for Embiid. 

If he was smart he’s call Charles this offseason and really kiss his ass. 

No one needs to be on Chuck’s bad side.
