Charles Oakley Blasts ‘Sensitive’ NBA Players, Suggests Some Play In Dresses
Charles Oakley isn’t too fond of the NBA’s new direction.
The retired 19-year NBA veteran ripped some current NBA players Saturday night in Dallas during his appearance on Michael Rapaport’s “I Am Rapaport” podcast. Oakley branded today’s players fundamentally unsound and even suggested some are so soft they should play in dresses.

“We drank milk, they drink water, it’s a big difference,” Oakley said.
Upon hearing Oakley’s comments, a few Twitter users reminded him Oakley of one of his dress-wearing peers: Dennis Rodman.

While Oakley’s comments might garner headlines, they won’t endear him to those who can help him gain a more prominent role in the NBA.
