Charles Barkley is a retired National Basketball Association player who is also a Hall of Famer and a legend known for his great skills near the rim. Now after retirement, Charles Barkley has stepped into the entertainment side of the NBA as he now is a successful NBA analyst for NBA on TNT (Turner Network Television). He is a great player critic and the most honest person to say it without thinking twice as he picks many hot takes against NBA players every now and then. Recently, sitting alongside Shaquille O’Neal and other crew members at NBA on TNT he appreciated the Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving-led Brooklyn Nets. As the regular season just got wrapped up and Sir Charles has made it to the headlines for his confidence and trust in the Nets team.

Currently, under the leadership of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, the Brooklyn Nets are ranked as the seventh seed in the eastern conference with the record of 44 wins and 38 losses at .537. The team as of now is stuck in the play-in tournament and will be facing Cleveland Cavaliers to make it to the postseason. The Brooklyn Nets were always championship contenders but the chemistry issues and injuries just ruined their legendary run. As they topped the rankings for good enough time until KD got injured and Uncle Drew along with James Harden were seen failing and falling without him. But Charles Barkley has acknowledged the fact that they still got it and have the capability to win against any team in a playoff match-up.

Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are easily league’s top 10 players right now. The seven-footer is the greatest scorer the game has ever seen and the other one has godlike handles and legendary IQ plays. The duo is enough to upset any team on their way to lift up a championship if healthy. Even Charles Barkley thinks the same even though he was honest throughout the season and wasn’t on their bus but now spectating the form the team has maintained while building a strong and young core they surely have a good chance to take anyone down.

Charles Barkley appreciating and praising the All-Star duo of Nets quoted: “Brooklyn to me in every series unless you take Giannis away, Joel Embiid, Jayson Tatum. Brooklyn is going to have two best players in every series. After those three guys, I have mentioned. They play Miami they are going to have the two best players on the team. Milwaukee like say other than Giannis and Embiid and Jayson Tatum they are going to have the two best players in every series. So they got a chance. So I would not want to play Brooklyn personally because they are the best…Like I say, man the Brooklyn team is scary, especially with Drummond coming off the bench while Kyrie and Kevin are the two, in my opinion, Giannis is the best player in the league I agree with you but the two unstoppable 1-on-1 players in the NBA today are Kyrie Irving and KD. They can single-handedly win 4 games out of 7.”

Charles Barkley kept his take very honest as he backed it up with facts and didn’t even take a shot or disrespect any other superstar from their contention. He was real throughout his rally and even Shaquille O’Neal agreed with him. The Brooklyn Nets surely have a shot to the Finals as it isn’t easy for any team to win against the Nets in a seven-game series. Especially, when they have a deep, skilled, and young roster ready to back their veterans up. As of now, the Nets have a fair enough chance to face the Jayson Tatum-led Boston Celtics in the first round. But nothing stands confirmed until the play-in tournament ends.
