Charles Barkley does not appreciate being interrupted when he when is waxing poetic about his love for the city of Cleveland and LeBron James.

Barkley is in the Land of the Cavs, along with basically everyone else in sports media, for what's left of the NBA Finals.

In a video taken Thursday night outside The Park Social Lounge in Cleveland, The Round Mound of Rebound boldly told a stranger to zip it after they interrupted a selfie video he was taking with a Cavs superfan.

Sir Charles says in the video that Cleveland is "one of the best cities" and just when he was about to share the love for LeBron, a person off-camera shouts excitedly, "That's Charles Barkley!"

"Hey man .. shut the f**k up, I'm talking," Barkley snaps back before the camera abruptly cuts off.

Sources tell The Blast that Barkley was out at the swanky Cleveland hot spot rubbing elbows with sports insiders like Paul Pierce and Max Kellerman. We're told everyone was drinking and "having a good time."

Well, maybe everyone except that rando who got told to STFU?
