The adage “he who laughs last, laughs loudest” is fitting for the Boston Celtics a day after their 92-88 win over the Golden State Warriors.
During halftime of Thursday night’s showdown at TD Garden, Hall of Fame forward and TNT analyst Charles Barkley lambasted the Celtics as they trailed in the game.
The Celtics, of course, turned things around, erasing a 17-point deficit en route to victory. And on Friday afternoon, the Celtics’ official Twitter account responded to Barkley’s comments in an appropriate fashion.
We still love you, Chuck 😂 pic.twitter.com/V8yZZdW6VY

Looks like the Celtics might be standing alone in their forgiveness, however, as most of the replies to the tweet are from Boston fans still livid with Barkley’s hot take.
Chuck has a little over a month to rethink his opinion on the C’s, who play their next game on TNT on Dec. 21 against the New York Knicks.
