Barkley said, "LeBron seems to really enjoy stepping up to the free throw line. I suddenly remembered the technical foul Su got not long ago. It was because the referee called a 'body hair whistle' and he was very unhappy about it, snapping at the referee..."
Kenny Smith nodded; he too remembered such an incident.
Barkley, with an insinuation, said, "These two really are nothing alike… Who do you think will end up with higher achievements when their careers are over?"
Kenny Smith didn't answer, but instead countered with, "Who do you think is more successful?"
His "act of cowardice" earned him an eye roll from Barkley, who bluntly said, "Of course it's Su Wan. I hope he has a great career!"
Apparently feeling his previous statement wasn't explosive enough, Barkley added, "I think that no player from the '90s could possibly like a guy like LeBron James."
