The ongoing feud between Draymond Green and Charles Barkley got an injection of energy today with Green's latest comments on the former NBA star and current TNT analyst.

In an appearance on the "All The Smoke" podcast with Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes, Green brought heat against Barkley, who he says has been throwing shots at him since he entered the league. After conceding that Barkley was "a great basketball player," Green brought up the fact that he "never won s--t" in terms of championships.

From there, Draymond went on to say that Charles' issues with him stem from jealousy. Green not only says he won more and made more money, but also that he impacted the game more than the "Round Mound of Rebound."

“He scored more points than me, aight cool, but that don’t necessarily mean you had more impact on the game than me," Green said.

Let's just get this out there: Barkley has thrown his share of jabs at Draymond and the Warriors over the year, but Barkley's impact on the game of basketball goes far beyond Green's. The dude was a onetime MVP who carried a team to the NBA Finals.

Draymond is a very good player who excels in his role, but he is not the overall individual talent that Barkley was. There's nothing wrong with that either; Charles is an all-time great.

Maybe Draymond is just trolling us all, but if he honestly believes what he said, he's wrong.
