Charles Barkley On James Harden's Fashion "I Don't Like When Men Wear Skirts"
…
Now I’m with Charles here, I don’t understand NBA fashion whatsoever. Tim Duncan wearing a bunch of oversized clothes from Sam’s Club, that makes sense. James Harden wearing a gun holster one day and a skirt the next, no fucking clue. But the difference is that I’m white, I’m not supposed to get what’s going on. I’m supposed to look at it, be confused as fuck, but understand that James Harden probably is doing something that is cooler than me because I’ve been wearing the same jeans from the Gap for the past 5 years. Charles on the other hand should at least pretend to know what’s going on. Bad look when he starts being the Mike Lupica of the TNT set. Next thing you know he’s going to tell us a layup counts as 2 and bounce passing is a lost art. Fake it till you make it Charles, this is when you pretend that black people have some undefinable coolness we can’t understand, not join us white stiffs that think fashion is ironing our J Crew button down and going loafers instead of sneakers when we go to the bar.
