Charles Barkley Roasted Skip Bayless During ‘The Match,’ and Fans Loved It

Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were able to beat Stephen Curry and Klay Thomas in this summer’s version of The Match on Thursday night in Las Vegas, but the real star of the evening was, once again, Charles Barkley. 

The NBA legend was a huge part of the TNT broadcast, which started with him giving some pretty cool news to the great Ernie Johnson and continued with him going off the rails for much of the night

His best moment came when he took a shot at Fox Sports 1’s Skip Bayless, saying he wished he could have a job like Shannon Sharpe’s where he could get a big buyout for working with an “idiot."

Sharpe, of course, left Undisputed earlier this month after a seven-year run on the show that had many tense moments in the final months

Fan’s loved Barkley’s shot at Bayless:
