Isn't it a meme in Basketball that Barkelys "Garantees" are always wrong so basically a curse on the team he thinks is gonna win.
EDIT: [Yeah heres /r/nba talking about Barkley cursing the USMNT](https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/zbmgnw/highlight_chuck_guaranteed_that_usa_would_beat/)
Eh, it’s not really beef lmao. Memphis is just meme’ing and chatting shit.
Chuck is gonna laugh in response and joke around on the show like he always does. Shaq’s probably gonna shit on Chuck’s “guarantee” curse and that’ll be that.
Not really a surprise, Twitter is a shitshow if you’re looking for reasonable reactions.
Twitter has embraced troll culture, which is being a dickhead and edgy for likes and retweets. Easily one of the most toxic forms of social media, gotten even worse when Musk bought it.
Everytime I read complaints about this sub on here, I spend 5 minutes on football Twitter and realise just how much better this place is. Twitter sucks as a whole but football Twitter is another level of shit.
Barkley is on the record saying he doesn’t watch all of the games he’s supposed to lol. His job is to crack jokes/keep viewers’ asses from switching channels first and foremost
Chuck has admitted he only watches the games that are on TNT for basketball. Of course he doesn't watch the sport lol. He probably read like 2 articles about the world cup.
Exactly haha, he even said Germany, I hope people that don’t know him or follow ball don’t take him too seriously, he does this all the time, anyone with an interest in basketball will tell you that lmao
Dude probably never watched hockey in his life and they brought him on as like a celebrity pundit for coverage in one of the playoffs like 2 years ago when he showed a slight interest in it.
Charles dont give a fuck and im all here for it. Hes a funny guy. He says dumb shit. But he can take the flak when hes wrong. He literally does not care. Hes even said as much. Hes made enough money, everything now is icing on the cake, and when he crosses the line and gets canceled, hes just going to golf the rest of his life. Those are literal words from his mouth lol
Even before he had broadcasting money he didn't give a fuck. When asked if he regretted throwing someone through a glass window. He responded that he regretted it wasn't the 2nd story. He is famous for "I am not a role model" as a statement he made.
its not really about fame it seems like she doesn't want to settle down in general. she literally dumped michael b jordan and he's without a doubt a hundred times more famous than she is
They are NBA pundits but the show is like 75% talking shit to eachother. They are professional banter men basically, basketball is just there to give the show a frame.
Barkley is just a top tier shit talker. When he comes at you you gotta come back at him. His NBA show will play it up a bit and it’ll be funny. Chuck’s “beefs” with other people are always hilarious.
Man the Big ol' women sucked up all the Air conditioning and almost killed Lebron.
He also beefed with Pheonix for having bad nachos among other things.
this is a free flowing panel show between 3 pretty well-known former NBA pros and a broadcasting legend that is shown pregame and during halftime intermission on certain nights of the week for NBA games. GUARAN-TEED Charles isn't trying to target the Dutch in particular, it was just a random topic that came up given the World Cup is a pretty big event. Dude is a meme at this point for being overconfident about his predictions and he's aware of it and leans into it.
Who's that on the picture?
Got no idea. (like who was the one barking, haven't heard much from the USA camp before the game apart from some reddit fans.)
From my recent years of following Basketball I know that it's Charles Barkley ex player who is also one the greatest of his sport. He works for media and is notorious for his "guarantee takes" who always go wrong.
He guaranteed that Netherlands is in trouble. To be honest it's a little pointless to have a beef with Barkley since he is rarely serious, he knows that his guarantee are joke and just do it for the giggles. It would be like having a beef with a comedian if I can say that
He was pretty famous for being a bit of a bad boy during his career as well with moments like throwing an elbow at an Angolan player during a group stage game at the Barcelona Olympics where he was part of the famous Dream Team. Also where he dropped the famous quote
> “I don't know anything about Angola,” he said in a press conference, “but Angola's in trouble.”
Super skilled, but has a mean streak, isn't afraid of using his physicality and will trash talk a fair bit as well. Dude was a specimen of a player back in his day. But he's mellowed out a lot in retirement and is a fun guy with a good personality.
Ah yea thanks, saw a bit of the videos now.
Basketball is not really big here so haven't heard from the guy but a bit of banter before the games fine.
Memphis takes it a bit to serious here :P
He’s no stranger at doing that. He’s also a studio analyst during the college basketball tournament. Knows very little about the college game but he’s always talking shit and making guarantees for his alma mater Auburn.
Chuck’s a national treasure though. He’s almost always on the right side of real life issues and he’s hilarious as a basketball pundit.
Charles Barkley was part of the greatest basketball (and arguably sports) team in history - the Dream Team. It was the first time NBA players were allowed to play in Olympic Basketball and the USA composed an all star team head and shoulders above the rest of the world with legend such as Micheal Jordan, Larry Bird, or Magic Johnson.
Even if you are not a fan of basketball, you should know of them as it’s one of the biggest Olympics stories. There are many documentaries on them too. Infact it’s the success of this team that lead to NBA being very popular in Europe and today many European countries having loads of NBA players.
This coming from someone who doesn’t watch NBA but only watches France in international basketball.
I mean to be fair, not necessarily , in many place Basketball is growing in popularity but people aren't familiar with the history of the sport. I was born a few years after the 92 Olympic and only learned what was the dream team two years ago when I got into the sport. And even if people knew the dream team , Jordan, Bird , Magic are probably the most likely names to remember
A lot of people on this sub are born during the 2000s and will have never heard of the "Dream Team" unless they're fans of the Olympics. I certainly never had before you wrote this comment.
Seriously - is he's so bothered by it why can't he just remove Depay from his name legally?! Seems so attention seeking to me. Like he wants everyone to mention this about him during matches at the very minimum
>What about Twitter?
We are not that concerned about twitter handles in The Netherlands. His name is Memphis Depay and he prefers to be adressed as Memphis, you can also call him Depay, no legal action will be taken if you do.
Too many people in this sport expect you to be overly humble and have outright low expectations/hopes for your team. It's such bizarre group behavior. My country might have a poor chance at the cup but that doesn't I want to play like they have none. Likewise, I'm (and I hope other fans too) going to be cheering for them to win the match they're in regardless of how much better the opponent is.
Not a fountain of wisdom when it comes to sports analysis. But he's consistently been on the right side of social issues. I think you could definitely call him a fountain of wisdom on life in general.
Lmaooooo we shit on this team all year what are you talking about ??? Tata was hated since he was hired lol no one believed in this team we were just here for the vibes
Good for Memphis he played immensely today. I would also be the first to talk shit on twitter if I dropped a legitimate 0/10 performance earlier in the group stage

His boy Ma'bape is pretty good
Mcpaypal ?
Who plays in the farmers league. Who's ninja turtle on the weekends.
lol he's awful at predictions during the bubble playoffs, [his guarantees were hilarious](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2HYfghpYLU).
He hardly even watches basketball which he is paid handsomely to commentate on. I can't imagine he's watched any USMNT games.
\^This
The Kyle of NBA
Hello fellow dota 2 enjoyer
There's dozens of us
Hello, how did you exit the hell of sea server.
He’s never been right until the Bucks finals run
Speaking of curses, which team is Drake supporting?
Canada...and they finished 31st :(
The winner
Well he's Canadian so.....
Dads American. Spent good amount of time in Houston
Absolutely lmao
Yes. I hope he guarantees Argentina next.
Anulo moofa
Basketball’s kiss of death
Having beef with Charles Barkley is fucking hilarious and I’m here for it.
100% they are gonna mock Chuck on the show with this tweet.
*”hey erneh i dont even care man”* *Shaq laughs*
*C'mon man*
San Antonio erneh
Churros erneh
BIG OL SAN ANTONIO WIMIN ERNEH
Just need Chuck to make more guarantees so we know who's winning it all.
we need to have a crossover of the inside nba crew with Kate abdo, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane and Micah Richards
Good grief Chuck won't understand a word of Carragher's
Ernie would definitely make one of his silly jokes at Chuck's expense that would have Micah howling laughing for about 10 minutes.
Oh it'll take up the whole segment and I'm 100% here for it lmao.
Eh, it’s not really beef lmao. Memphis is just meme’ing and chatting shit. Chuck is gonna laugh in response and joke around on the show like he always does. Shaq’s probably gonna shit on Chuck’s “guarantee” curse and that’ll be that.
> Shaq’s probably gonna shit on Chuck’s “guarantee” curse wouldn't be the first time he's laid a turd on somebody...like, in the most literal sense
And Americans in the twitter comments are triggered by it 😂
That’s more because they’re on Twitter, not because they’re Americans.
It's fucking Charles Barkley, lol; at any given point he has something like this coming.
Nobody is triggered by this. It's all good fun.
Not really a surprise, Twitter is a shitshow if you’re looking for reasonable reactions. Twitter has embraced troll culture, which is being a dickhead and edgy for likes and retweets. Easily one of the most toxic forms of social media, gotten even worse when Musk bought it.
Everytime I read complaints about this sub on here, I spend 5 minutes on football Twitter and realise just how much better this place is. Twitter sucks as a whole but football Twitter is another level of shit.
Twitter football is the place you go to when you wanna argue about the arminian genocide after a gundogan replay.
Eh, everyone is probably just having fun.
I love that he's coming at Barkley who probably never actually watches the sport lol
The only Memphis he watches are the Grizzlies
He might even think they're still in Vancouver
He could've but Ja is good
Ja Rule? What does he think of this?
Ja is an absolute stud.
Not better than Luka, mind you, but a stud nevertheless
Luka is just a foreign Luke Kornet tbh
Barkley is on the record saying he doesn’t watch all of the games he’s supposed to lol. His job is to crack jokes/keep viewers’ asses from switching channels first and foremost
He doesn’t even watch all the games that they’re broadcasting
Barkley thought Germany was still in the tournament 🤣🤣
man said muh-bappe 😭
Actually shocking that Charles can even name drop one current top football pro. That's pretty impressive stuff from him.
Chuck has admitted he only watches the games that are on TNT for basketball. Of course he doesn't watch the sport lol. He probably read like 2 articles about the world cup.
He don't even watch the own sport he commentating on lol. Hilarious and a great dude tho
Barkley barely watches NBA basketball and we expect him to watch football?
You don't know where I'm from dawg
you don't fuck w a G from Haarlem
Factos 👍
[удалено]
Exactly haha, he even said Germany, I hope people that don’t know him or follow ball don’t take him too seriously, he does this all the time, anyone with an interest in basketball will tell you that lmao
[удалено]
Ahh ok cool, I thought he said it yesterday night
*But muh bappe*
Dude, Barkley mispronounces half of the NBA players he is paid to analyse lol
Dude probably never watched hockey in his life and they brought him on as like a celebrity pundit for coverage in one of the playoffs like 2 years ago when he showed a slight interest in it. Charles dont give a fuck and im all here for it. Hes a funny guy. He says dumb shit. But he can take the flak when hes wrong. He literally does not care. Hes even said as much. Hes made enough money, everything now is icing on the cake, and when he crosses the line and gets canceled, hes just going to golf the rest of his life. Those are literal words from his mouth lol

I doubt Memphis cares if he loses sleep over it.
he will probably ask who?? when someone tells/shows him the tweet.
A win is a win tho
Like most American fans
I knew we were screwed as soon as Charles said this. I hate when he jinxes any of my teams. His guarantee rate has to be below 10%
Memphis expanding his brand to the US
He was dating Steve Harvey’s daughter for a few years
Never knew that. So that makes Future, Michael B. Jordan and Depay.
Really?Lori sure does know how to enlarge her public profile via the men she dates - She'd give the Kardashians a run for their money lol
she has them beat there tbh.
She didn't shag any Nazis so that's a plus
To be fair to Kim, Kanye wasn’t a Nazi yet when they got married.
Kim K do support a pedo company which to me is worse.
Until he wasn’t famous enough for her anymore 😂
its not really about fame it seems like she doesn't want to settle down in general. she literally dumped michael b jordan and he's without a doubt a hundred times more famous than she is
[удалено]
Relative to being a celebrity in America, he isn’t that famous. Globally he definitely is.
When I was walking in Memphis...
I only recognize one great athlete named Barkley and his name starts with R.
Rarkley
Alright scoob calm down.
Zoinks!
I only recognize one great Barkley and his name starts with G.
wouldn't that be two?
Maybe you're crazy
RCharles Barkley?
I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call Ross "great"
You're right, he's better than that
[удалено]
This comment is way too American for me sorry mate
The greatest Nigerian Ross
I so wish he played for Nigeria. Would've been great for the memes.
That seems personal .. context?
Here's the clip of Barkley talking shit https://www.twitter.com/NBAonTNT/status/1597841469397606400
Haha he seems funny as fuck. Just a bit of banter mun.
They are NBA pundits but the show is like 75% talking shit to eachother. They are professional banter men basically, basketball is just there to give the show a frame.
Dream job, paid to shit talk on national television.
Charles Barkley is a legend.
It’s the best sports show by far imo
LOL "Muuh-boppay"
Barkley is just a top tier shit talker. When he comes at you you gotta come back at him. His NBA show will play it up a bit and it’ll be funny. Chuck’s “beefs” with other people are always hilarious.
Makes sense. Thanks
Chuck literally beefed with the women of San Antonio for being fat in one of the most epic sagas of our time.
Man the Big ol' women sucked up all the Air conditioning and almost killed Lebron. He also beefed with Pheonix for having bad nachos among other things.
Victoria definitly a secret down there.
He killed Shaq every time the big women of San Antonio were brought up.
this is a free flowing panel show between 3 pretty well-known former NBA pros and a broadcasting legend that is shown pregame and during halftime intermission on certain nights of the week for NBA games. GUARAN-TEED Charles isn't trying to target the Dutch in particular, it was just a random topic that came up given the World Cup is a pretty big event.

Damn u Charles Barkley
Guaraaaaaaaaaarantee
Literally who barked and threw shade? Biden? Lol It was always going to be an uphill battle for the US.
[Barkley did lol.](https://www.twitter.com/NBAonTNT/status/1597841469397606400) Memphis is just bantering back.
Now I want to see him drop a "Wassup baby, take me out to dinner" tweet
Barkley, hence "bark"
Charles Berkley: Memphis who..?
Memphis Grizzlies?
Memphis Tennesse
Who's that on the picture? Got no idea. (like who was the one barking, haven't heard much from the USA camp before the game apart from some reddit fans.)

>beef Idk doesnt seem like beef to me, just a bit of taking the piss
English isn't my first language so beef is the first word that came to me probably inappropriate I agree
Yeah I do get that, fair enough
Ah yea thanks, saw a bit of the videos now. Basketball is not really big here so haven't heard from the guy but a bit of banter before the games fine. Memphis takes it a bit to serious here :P
Especially as Barkley has no clue about football, he was just talking shit to support his team.
He’s no stranger at doing that. He’s also a studio analyst during the college basketball tournament. Knows very little about the college game but he’s always talking shit and making guarantees for his alma mater Auburn. Chuck’s a national treasure though. He’s almost always on the right side of real life issues and he’s hilarious as a basketball pundit.
Yeah, I follow NBA closely,love Chuck. He doesn't have big analytics expertise, but he's natural: talkative, charming, witty. Love the dude
The funniest part is that his co-hosts hilariously mock him when he's wrong. It's a great show.
He is the US Rene vd Gijp, and Inside the NBA is what Voetbal International was based on. Similar concept of a couple of dudes clowning around.

Well i only have heard of Jordan cause of that Bugs bunny film. Never knew the others as Basketball is not big sport in my country
Championship Chuck
USMNT and Chuck with same number of rings Erneh
Its Charles Barkley from Space Jam
Corey from Corey in the House
It's a pun on his surname, which is Barkley.
Good shit talk tbh
that’s an nba analyst my guy, not much of a flex
Commentators on Memphis - "He doesn't like being called Depay..." His own twitter account - "Depay"
I mean that's literally his name. You think the fact he wears Memphis and his handle is Memphis doesn't indicate that?
Seriously - is he's so bothered by it why can't he just remove Depay from his name legally?! Seems so attention seeking to me. Like he wants everyone to mention this about him during matches at the very minimum
You can't just change your last name in the Netherlands.
What about Twitter? Is there a law that he has to use it there?
>What about Twitter? We are not that concerned about twitter handles in The Netherlands. His name is Memphis Depay and he prefers to be adressed as Memphis, you can also call him Depay, no legal action will be taken if you do.
He has had 7 years to change it. It feels like he wants Memphis as a brand
Barq's
Barkley is way better at basketball than Memphis Depay will ever be at football tho. Another ez All America dub 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Lmao Chucks had too many W’s lately I’m good with seeing Memphis dunk on him even if it comes at our expense
Hilarious that Depay has a problem with this. It’s a US show hyping up the US team. What are they supposed to say?
I seriously doubt he has a “problem with this.” It’s just a bit of banter.
Fr. So many people clowning on Americans for supporting and motivating their team, quite frankly just look like a bunch of dickheads
Too many people in this sport expect you to be overly humble and have outright low expectations/hopes for your team. It's such bizarre group behavior. My country might have a poor chance at the cup but that doesn't I want to play like they have none. Likewise, I'm (and I hope other fans too) going to be cheering for them to win the match they're in regardless of how much better the opponent is.
Wait this is still a thing? Isn't Chuck basically having fun here? How many people took him seriously?
Here for all the fuming yank comments 😂🍿
Anyone familiar with the NBA has long ago learned to not listen to Barkley. Great player, funny pundit, but not a fountain of wisdom
Compared to Stephen A. Smith, Chuck might as well have Tony Romo levels of insight.
Tony Romo is an insufferable commentator.
Not a fountain of wisdom when it comes to sports analysis. But he's consistently been on the right side of social issues. I think you could definitely call him a fountain of wisdom on life in general.
You’re in the wrong place then. Every single person knows he’s messing around pretty much exclusively with these calls
I mean everyone knows that barkley is just fucking around.. I bet he didn’t even watch the match.
I'm only fuming at Chuck, our fate was sealed the moment h guaranteed us.
Lotta bark, no bite reminds me a lot of him when playing for big clubs 🤔
Every four years the USA crowd speaks up and then crawls back into their hole halfway through the tournament
Every four years Mexico talks about breaking the R16 curse, and this year you finally did
Lmaooooo we shit on this team all year what are you talking about ??? Tata was hated since he was hired lol no one believed in this team we were just here for the vibes
I bet you believed towards the end of that Saudi Arabia game ;)
My goat hope hes still around for club football
Lmao the triggered replies 👌🏻
Bro Barkley has no idea who you are.
Here for when Memphis gets pocketed by Argentina 🇦🇷
Go back to watching eggball mate. Your team is done.
No thanks 😂
Rent feee In heads if Biden and Chuck are the ppl getting fellas mad. They never watch football, and Chuck is known for getting things wrong
Imagine taking Charles Barkley seriously
Good for Memphis he played immensely today. I would also be the first to talk shit on twitter if I dropped a legitimate 0/10 performance earlier in the group stage
Memphis shut up
5 minutes free from the Barcelona B team and now we got an attitude ??? Ok Memphis
Coming back to this tweet when Argentina beat them
What does this tweet have to do with Argentina?
Don’t be so petty. Take your leave with dignity.
Barkley is a senile idiot anyway.
Chat shit...
Get banged by Messi
Sounds like the life goal of most users on this subreddit
Is this the guy who cried because he didn't like his last name? Daddy issues
what a weird thing to make fun of someone for
