Former NBA star Charles Barkley has come out against the “idiots” criticizing the NBA over the China controversy, and defended the league by pointing out the “billions of dollars” that are at stake.
Despite China’s long history of human rights abuses, the TNT sports commentator and former Houston Rockets star called critics of the NBA, “jackasses.”
Not only are critics, “idiots” and “jackasses,” but they are also “hypocrites,” as far as Barkley is concerned.
The former player spoke out on the Dan Patrick Show on Thursday evoking Colin Kaepernick.

Hahaha. Barkley like the rest of the NBA. NEVER BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU.
No morals when it comes to greed.
Nike Basketball Association needs Chinese workforce.
NBA has succeeded in making itself completely useless and disposable. Hasn't been missed; won't be missed.
Chinese money or American Patriot? Gosh, I'll take the money, Alex!
maybe the league should just move all their ghetto teams to china? that would give them what they want.
Too funny. Look in the mirror Charles. Think about the atrocities in China; how in the heck can you defend that while you stand critical of the U.S. and immigration policy. So painfully obvious the NBA is beholding to Nike and China. Guess that is why I don't watch the NBA.
