Cam Newton has been getting hit from all sides following the sexist remark he made toward a female reporter at Wednesday’s press conference when he said it was funny to hear a woman discuss passing routes.

Share this: Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith have seen better basketball from the Boston Celtics. The “NBA on TNT” analysts couldn’t be bothered to discuss the Celtics’ performance at halftime against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday at TD Garden in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals. Boston was trailing 72-31 at the break, with the 41-point margin representing the most lopsided half in NBA postseason history. So we’ll just have to forgive Barkley and Smith for playing “Go Fish” instead of breaking down highlights. The Celtics ultimately lost 130-86, giving Cleveland a 2-0 series lead. The teams will meet at 8:30 p.m. ET on Sunday night at Quicken Loans Arena in Game 3. Perhaps that contest will be competitive enough to hold Barkley’s and Smith’s
