Charles Barkley craps on Pelicans, Galveston at same time

Charles Barkley is showing no mercy for the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Pelicans lost 106-85 to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 3 of their Western Conference first-round playoff series on Saturday at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, La. The loss led the Pelicans to fall behind 3-0 in the series, and Barkley is effectively calling it over for New Orleans.

Not only is Chuck ready to send the Pelicans home from the playoffs, but he doesn’t even think they deserve the cliche trip to Cancun either. Rather, Barkley thinks the Pelicans should be sent to Galveston, Texas to spend their end-of-season trip.

“We not even going to send ’em to Cancun. We gonna send ’em to Galveston with that dirty a– water be washing up on the shore. People think they at the beach. … Y’all quit. Drive your a– down to Galveston,” Barkley joked.

The TNT crew has a tradition of celebrating a team’s elimination from the postseason by sending them “Gone Fishin’.” The running joke is that teams head to Cancun for vacation after losing. But the Pelicans’ lack of effort has left Chuck feeling like the team doesn’t even deserve a Cancun trip — whether real or methaphorical.

C’mon, Chuck. Show some respect for Moody Gardens!
