Barkley: Golden State Warriors should stay in Oakland

SAN FRANCISCO -- Charles Barkley may not like the Warriors' jump-shooting style, but he loves Golden State's fans.

And he's unhappy the franchise plans to relocate to San Francisco.Barkley, appearing at a TNT media event on Monday, said he's not a big fan of San Francisco. "I'd rather go to Oakland," the Hall of Famer and former 11-time NBA All-Star said."I have not had a lot of fun here," Barkley said. "The Oakland community has been fantastic. For over 30 years, they've been fantastic fans."Golden State's plan to cross the bridge to San Francisco leaves Barkley with a sour taste in his mouth.
