The Bucks had their season come to an end with a 120-98 loss to the Pacers in Game 6 of their first round series in Indianapolis on Thursday night.

An ugly moment from the end of the game is likely going to lead to a big punishment, as Bucks guard Patrick Beverley was seen throwing a ball at Pacers fans not once, but twice, while standing near Milwaukee's bench in the final minutes.

Charles Barkley rightfully blasted Beverley for his actions, saying the NBA is likely going to suspend him and that it should be a lengthy one.

Here's Barkley's full take on the situaion:

Barkley is right, the NBA should come down hard on Beverley. We'll have wait and see just what Adam Silver and Co. decide to do.
