Charles Barkley’s War Against Miami Heat Fans Continues


Sir Charles continues to battle Miami fans, as he lobs verbal grenades at the Heat faithful, and the team they root for: “When asked if Miami is the worst professional sports town, Barkley, who reiterated his admiration of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, said: ‘Yeah they have the worst fans. No question. It’s not even loud in there. You’re at the game and you are like, ‘Man this place isn’t even loud.’ At least when you go to Chicago, it’s loud in there, it’s crazy down in Dallas but it’s not even loud in Miami.’ When the Heat were playing the Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals, Barkley said he liked James and Wade personally, but he called the Heat a ‘whiny bunch.’ He didn’t back off that charge on Wednesday when he was a guest on ‘The Waddle & Silvy Show’ on ESPN 1000. ‘Listen, if the Miami Heat were playing the Washington Generals I would pick the Washington Generals,’ Barkley said with a chuckle. ‘It’s something about that team that annoys me. They just a whiny bunch and I can’t root for them.'”
