Charles Barkley will be in attendance for Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night, but Wednesday night he was taking in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final in Boston.
During the first intermission, Barkley made a guest appearance on the NBC Sports panel, where he was asked to compare Kawhi Leonard to an NHL player. Here’s his answer.
Barkley had the answer ready to go as he compared Kawhi Leonard to Sidney Crosby almost immediately.
“Sidney Crosby. He’s the perfect superstar. He’s quiet, he’s gotta win, you never hear any drama about him. I think Kawhi is a great player and a great man, but Sidney Crosby to me, I know I probably can’t go home to Philadelphia tomorrow bragging about Sidney Crosby, but he’s a perfect superstar. You’ve never heard anything bad about Sidney Crosby and he’s one of the greatest ever.”
That's some pretty high praise from Chuck.
