Last season, TNT analyst Charles Barkley insisted that the jump-shooting Warriors wouldn’t be able to win the NBA Title.
This prediction obviously didn’t work out for Chuck, but he at least owned up to it on Opening Night:

After this snafu, would Chuck stray away from making bold predictions this season? Nope!
Chuck was back at it tonight, and loudly guaranteed that the New York Knicks would make the playoffs this season:
Chuck still guarantees the Knicks are making the playoffs…emphatically. https://t.co/ce5TU92WVI

Of course, Chuck made the same statement two days ago on “PTI,” so he’s just backing up what he’s preaching.
Fun fact: Chuck was all-in on the Knicks back in August.
