Evolution of Charles Barkley 'Jonas Valanciunas' Pronunciation

From the start of the second part of the season Charles Barkley for the first time mentioned the name of Jonas Valanciunas. This video shows his struggles and improvements during the second part of the 2013-2014 season that was left.

What kills me is the confidence when Chuck says it the first time 😂😂😂😂

[tippyfloof]

The way he says “Valen-Chewing” kills me every time 😂

[chrisrye]

Vachino-unchouankas, Valachunchounas, Valachewing, Valaseanus, Valachoonas, Valunchunas. Only took him a year to figure it out

[djbasrur]

When Shaq's correcting your pronunciation, you know it's all gone horribly wrong 😂

[anthonymorales]

When Ernie says *oh my gosh buy a vowel* cracks me up every time 😂😂😂😂

[tusharmathew]

Charles Barkley with a Pulp Fiction reference right in the end. Priceless.

[mussmanword]

I love at the end, when Chuck hits Kenny with the perfect Pulp Fiction reference, then promptly says it's from Fast Times at Ridgemont High!

[TheOneKeyToLife]

Nah that first pronunciation was INSANE 🤣🤣

[oliverr]

*quotes Pulp Fiction.... calls it Fast Times at Ridgemont High*

[jackgutierrez]

Valsu-inu-wansas
Va-va-valin-ciu-shoes
Valo-yu-see-nus
Valan-chewing
Vala-sinas

and they had him spell it...

V-A-L-U-N-C-H-U-N-A-S

Love you chuck! hahaha

"...look at the big brain on Brad..." That was too funny. I live in Toronto, and JV is one of my favourite Raptors, and although I'm getting better at it, even I still can't pronounce Jonas' name properly. But I'm getting there

[vytautaskarpauskas]

You are lucky guys that there are no Icelandic players

[joebucketsTV]

“He’s terri-, terr…he’s very good” 😂😂😂

[polorican]

Big brain on brad was on Pulp Fiction not fast times at ridgemont high

[kidpeligro]

"Auburn University education right there America"
- Shaq 🤣

[BurneSkull]

2:58 the best reaction of Valančiūnas ever... and I know... dat pause...

[theofornaciari]

Grant Hill at 0:21 is absolutely priceless

[jektonoporkins]

"Y'all don't remember that from Fast Times at Ridgemont High?"
LOL Pulp Fiction, Charles. It's from Pulp Fiction.

[koben]

0:18 you can already see cwebb smiling at the start of chuck's pronunciation

[TeacherLegendary]
