    I've watched so many barkley highlight segments and old suns games and it's funny how great you make him out to be.

    He couldn't dribble (his motion was very choppy and he couldn't do much from a stand still).

    He wasn't a great shooter.

    He was inconsistent on defense.

    He was vastly undersized for a PF.

    In all actuality, he was a lebron james with no dribble, less range, inferior passing skills, and a worse jumpshot, with better offensive and defensive rebounding.

    He also couldn't lead a team half as well as duncan could.

    Over-rated.

    But hey, I like Sir Charles. He is a cool guy.

    Goat PF my ass.

    Give me Duncan, Garnett, Malone, and even Nowitzki over Barkley anytime anywhere outside of an eating contest.

    Bad comparison.. since LeBron is actually at least 2 inches taller, and Barkley has about 10 extra inches horizontally. Also, Barkley actually had a post game.. LeBron..

    Barkley's post game was nothing special compared to other PFs and garnetts, and duncan's were much better (seriously he was 6'5, it's tough to play on the post at that height).

    Lebron is actually a much better player than barkley ever was. The only things barkley does better are rebounding and posting up (which I'm sure lebron will develop as he gets older). These two things were also position oriented. Lebron's impact on the court is much bigger.

    Dude, I agree that LeBron is the superior player.. never disputed that. But the comparison you're making between these two is just "turrible". Totally different players.

    I know they're different players but they both have that aggressive 'get to the rim' game except that lebron has the duties of a 'point forward' while barkley played power forward.

    He wasn`t a great dribbler but he was a [COLOR="Blue"]"Great Ball Handler"[/COLOR] the [COLOR="blue"]Best at PF Position [/COLOR]in small spaces and by far the [COLOR="blue"]"Best Spin Move PF Ever"[/COLOR]

    He wasn't a great shooter.



    Another Myth by Kiddos....

    He only [COLOR="Blue"]DOMINATED the MID RANGE GAME[/COLOR] and 2-Point FG% Region in [COLOR="DarkRed"]Ways Only Comparable to Dantley at SF, McHale at PF and Kareem-Shaq at C:[/COLOR]

    [COLOR="blue"]21.6 PPG [/COLOR]on only 12.9 Two-Point FGAs PG (Season) and [COLOR="blue"]58.13% Two-Point FG%[/COLOR]
    [COLOR="blue"]22.5 PPG[/COLOR] on only 14.5 Two-Point FGAs PG (Play-offs) and [COLOR="blue"]55.13% Two-Point FG%[/COLOR]



    -By Far [COLOR="blue"]"Best Offensive PF Ever"[/COLOR]

    He was inconsistent on defense.

    - Great Shot Blocker for a 6`5 dude in the Paint
    - Great Floor Defender
    [COLOR="Blue"]- "Greatest Stealing PF Ever"[/COLOR]


    He was vastly undersized for a PF.

    6`4 3/4 basically 6`5.

    Watch Him Next to Mark Aguirre a LEGIT 6`6 player (young Barkley)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-eCf-UWgZg

    Next to Dennis Rodman who really was not 6`7 or 6`8 but closer to 6`6 3/4 at best

    Barkley had a Superior:

    -Post Game
    -Mid Range Game
    -Lateral Movements
    -Rebounder
    -Rim Defender
    -Fundamentally More Sound etc
