Scottie Pippen Isn’t Afraid Of Charles Barkley, Won’t Apologize For Calling Him ‘Fat’

Scottie Pippen wants all the smoke lately.

In his latest beef, Pippen has some words about Charles Barkley. During a long interview with GQ, Scottie carved out a long segment to tear into Sir Charles.

Here’s what Pippen said via GQ:

“You can sit here and argue that Charles Barkley was a great player. But he gets diminished why? Because he never won. He never was on a winning team. So when he sit up on that stage with Shaq and Kenny, they can diminish him at any moment. As great of a player as he is, they can make him the size of a period. Kenny Smith can make himself bigger than Charles Barkley on that stage because why? He won. Yeah, Charles in the Hall of Fame, but when you talk about success in winning, you don’t speak of Charles Barkley’s name. Until you put him on a great team like the Dream Team. That’s where he gets his lift at. Because he was a part of a team, he knows what it’s like to get to the top. Great individuals don’t tend to get there and they lose a little bit, they lack something. If you don’t feel what it’s like to win, then you’re left out”

When scottie Pippen was asked if he wanted to apologize to Charles Barkley for calling him ‘fat’, the Chicago Bulls legend refused. He even claimed he wasn’t afraid of Barkley because he’s only even gotten into it with ‘little white guys’.

“I wish he woulda went through with it. I never apologized to him, but I’ll tell you what: He only got arrested for throwing some little white guys out of a window. I ain’t never seen him fight a Black man unless there were referees around. He plays his role like he’s tough. I don’t know nobody he done whooped. Go back and check his record. Did I apologize to him? I told him to get me the hell out of there. That’s what I recall.”

Before Scottie Pippen got into it with Charles Barkley, he started a feud with Kevin Durant by saying he’s not at LeBron James’ level.

Charles Barkley isn’t a guy who’s just going to sit there and take it. I expect he’ll have something to say in response to Scottie Pippen, and soon.

Stay tuned.
