The current feud between LeBron James and Charles Barkley has been built up for quite some time now as Chuck has made some very questionable remarks pertaining the three-time champion.

Over the years, Charles Barkley has never questioned the talent of LeBron James, but when it comes to some of his off the court antics, Chuck has voiced his issue with how LeBron tends to handle certain situation.

So nothing was new when the TNT analyst decided to blast the four-time MVP for publicly asking for more help.

After catching wind of Barkley’s comments, LeBron decided to finally unleash on the Hall of Famer via Bleacher Report.

"“I’m not the one who threw somebody through a window. I never spit on a kid,” James said. “I never had unpaid debt in Las Vegas. I never said, ‘I’m not a role model.’ I never showed up to All-Star Weekend on Sunday because I was in Vegas all weekend partying.”“All I’ve done for my entire career is represent the NBA the right way. Fourteen years, never got in trouble. Respected the game. Print that.”"

Now, Barkley has fired back. 

"“I’m just gonna keep doing what I do,” he said.“I’m not there to be friends with these guys,” Barkley added. “I’m there to do my job.”"

At this point, it doesn’t appear the two will be eating together at the dinner table soon, but LeBron is open to face-to-face discussion if need be, according to the L.A. Times.

"“And if this makes him want to talk to me, the schedule’s out there,” James said of Barkley. “He knows every road arena I’ll be in. Don’t just come up to me at All-Star and shake my hand and smile.”"

Considering the Cavs finished the month of January with a record of 7-8, it’s easy to see why LeBron was so triggered by Barkley’s latest comments. Maybe one day the two will be able to sit down and squash the beef.
