What did Brunson say in response to Barkley?
When asking Brunson a question, Barkley sort of criticized Tom Thibodeau on his coaching decisions and how he finally went to the bench for more help in Game 3.
In other words, he was basically saying it was about time that Thibs made some coaching adjustments, and said to Brunson's face that the bench won them Game 3.

Brunson, with a smirk on his face, didn't love the question and answered with, "Ooh I had a great comeback, but I'm let me stop."
Brunson has a great relationship with Coach Thibs and probably didn't love that Barkley was a little critical of how he's coached recently.
