Interesting turn of events in the NBA. Seems the New York Knicks aren't the only ones who like to talk about the 2010 free agency. Charles Barkley, known for his honest-to-goodness comments as TNT's sports analyst had a few words about the King's future. Well, LeBron James didn't take Mr. Barkley's small talk on the latter lightly. And Obviously, he ain't happy at all. Something not to be thankful for perhaps.

The King speaks up: "He's stupid. That's all I've got to say about that," James said Friday night before the Cavaliers' game against Golden State.

Those are cold words. Reaction like that is quite common whenever Sir Charles talks about stuff in the NBA especially on a player like LeBron James. You simply can't blame Barkley for being honest about it. The free agency is 2 years away and there's so much hype on the King's possible departure from his hometown Cleveland to the Big Apple. It's gonna take a while for these two to kiss and make-up, until the All-Star Game in Phoenix that is. Whether that could happen or not remains to be seen.

For now, cheer up Bron! You still have a couple of years having fun times with the Cavs, yes? It can't be that bad. Oh happy days.
