Charles Barkley puts Karl-Anthony Towns on the spot with question every fan wants to know
NY Post
Charles Barkley never holds back when he has an opinion, and he might have channeled every Knicks fan when he asked Karl-Anthony Towns one question after the Knicks’ Game 5 win over the Pacers on Thursday night.
During “Inside the NBA” after the game, the Knicks star was sitting down with Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith, Shaquille O’Neal and Barkley when the latter asked about the fouls Towns always seems to take.
“I gotta say something now, I gotta criticize you,” Barkley started off saying. “Yo man, why you be getting these dumb fouls?”
O’Neal jumped in saying, “I was going to ask the same question.”
“Why do you do that?” Barkley continued.
“God only knows,” Towns replied with a smile and laugh before Barkley continued on his diatribe about Towns’ foul issues.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
