"It reminded me so much of Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant," Barkley said Saturday on TNT."They would kill you to win a game. There's not many players in today's game—everybody wants to be buddy-buddy. My Suns, clearly is over. I'm shocked they're down 3-0. "But man, Anthony Edwards is everyone on notice: 'Yeah, I'm not going to wait for y'all to give me anything, I'm going to take it all.' And I love it."
