Deron Williams annoyed by Barkley's comments about Kobe

At the End chuck changed it from 30 a night, now to 40 a night.

Sounds like DWilliams has sand in his ******

Deron Williams just realised he's not the best PG in the League, he was just being Gassed up. Rondo and Steve Nash run laps around him.

Yeah, no question.

Does anyone know why? Even when he gives Kobe a compliment, it's always backhanded.

"I got to give it to him, he's not Michael Jordan, but he is great."

Why even add that part in there?

The Jordan comparisons probably irritate him (as they do anyone with a reasonable knowledege of teh game). I also wouldn't be surprised if Kobe's personality rubs him the wrong way. Kobe is a polarizing guy. Just because Barkley's a former NBA great doesn't mean he doesn't feel the same way about him as many in the general public.

Damn I'm glad someone understands this. People always talk about how Barkely is jealous and that doesn't make sense. Barkely is a HOF player who had a great career. Why would he be jealous of Kobe?

I know in your mindless fanboy world, anyone who doesn't care for Bryant (or think he's GOAT) is "jealous" of him. Care to explain how he's so close with Jordan then? Shouldn't he be "jealous" of Jordan? Doesn't seem to have a problem with Shaq or Magic. Shouldn't he be "jealous" of them? Or Duncan? etc.?

Maybe (horrors!) he doesn't really care for the guy, and feels he's on the overrated side! Oh no! Action punishable by death to fanboys!

Exactly. Barkley sees Kobe win 3 rings playing with a prime Shaq, while Barkley toiled away without such benefit his entire career. Put Barkley with prime Shaq? Damn. :0

He was joking, stop making threads about every quote that has the name Kobe in it.

[DuMa]

Has nothing to do with Kobe, it would be the same with any player. He wasn't joking either he seemed quite serious.

Pretty simple to understand really..Deron wasn't too happy it seemed that Chuck's comments which seemd to add to Kobe's fire.
