At 295 and, in his words losing a pound a day, he did some weights for awhile then he'd take on all comers at 1-on-1 for an hour or so. We had some decent players as members. I was not one.

To anyone who didn't see the man play back in the day: There have been few people able to take complete control of a game. Chuck was one of them. When he was in the zone, there was no doubt that he was gonna be the one to decide the game. Sometimes, it seemed like he got every rebound, made every shot, ran every single break. The only detriment to his career is that there was this one guy who did all of that, but just a tiny bit better. I loved him as a player, I love him now, because he brings that much needed down-to-earth attitude of a (former) absolute elite superstar to every conversation he partakes in. He is the GOAT of putting things into perspective.

Now, would you say Barkley was a great rebounder? Not me. He grabbed rebounds at a rate expected for a power forward. Most people would say rodman got rebounds comparable to Barkley but Barkley scored too. But, if you look into gameplans, matchups, and deeper than basic big 5 box stats... Barkley doesn't compare to the worms abilities. Career games with over 20 rebounds Charles barkley 54 Dennis rodman 158 Total career games played Charles barkley 1,073 Dennis rodman 911 Rodman performed at a high level on three times as many games as Charles did with 10% less chances to do so. And on the 90s bulls, rebounds were a lot harder to come by than on a team with Charles barkley.

I've grown to like and respect him for his genuine personality and also his deep understanding and love of Basketball so learning just now about what a great player he was makes him even bigger in my eyes.

Even though I am aKnicks fan I think Barkley is awesome! Great player and commentator on TV. Thank you Charles

You really undersold that PHX team. They won 50 games or more from 89-92, made the WCF twice, KJ was 20ppg-10ast on 50% FG for 3 straight yr, arguably the 2nd best PG in the league at that time. Chambers, Ainge, Hornacek, Majerle, Dumas, EJ, O.Miller, West.

I still remembered that Paxson's 3 point shot, a dagger to my heart.

Thanks to paxon

He certainly was a beast. In that ‘93 Finals he averaged 27.3 points, 13 rebounds and 5.5 assists.

Being 6'5 and winning the rebound title speaks to not just his freak athleticism but also his motor and competitiveness

That finals against the Bulls are still my favorite games to this day. Its just 2 superstars going at it.

I am thankful that Barkley made it into the 75 year team, he truly deserves it.

One of the very best, loved watching him play.

one of the greatest "right place wrong time"s

If you saw him in his prime. He was incredible!!!!!

One of the best power forwards to play the game. I remember the 93 finals like it was yesterday watching him battle mj was basketball at its finest.

Very nice video my man 😉

He played hard and out hustled everyone. He was fun to watch. I met him at the local grocery store about 5 years ago. He was so cool saying hi to everyone and shaking hands. He's lived a great life.

One of the greatest for me when I was 14 and, after 33 years I still think it.

He’s the Dan Marino of the nba

He cracks me up every time!!! Love me some Sir Chucky!!

Before Sir Charles he was the Round Mound of Rebound. And his Philly years he was absolute monster.

He was fantastic and fun to watch…back when I used to watch NBA

I used to love the NBA playoffs in the 90's as a kid

Chuck was so aggressive,his will to win and compete was amazing.when he came down the lane you better move.tough was his middle name....RESPECT.!!!!

I’ve never given a fuck about championships it’s a team game so Barkley in my mind is right up there with just about anyone if we’re going off who would you take #1 in an all time draft…he had every trait including intimidation

He was like a linebacker playing basketball. Never back down from anybody. Rumbled with Shaq and threw a ball in Rodman's face.

I’d say he was more of a defensive lineman lol, he was a monster

Sir Charles..he absolutely was the bomb.

I graduated from the high back in 1993 but my favorite of all time. My goat. I started watching and recording with 2 VCR when ESPN back then was whatever. Higlights. Back then it was 1998 when Sir Charles was second in history behind artis Gilmore in offensive rebounds. 6foot 4and 3quarters of an inch. Between giants!!! Never won a ring but still my all time favorite!!!

As a west coast white suburban teenager growing up in PHX this man from the south and east coast brought an exciting boldness to our lives we did not expect. At 15 watching him chase a ref through America West Arena: and he could school Jordan and Pip. Eye opening. Barkley was definitely a 👑

thanks for the knowledge

He came to my campus once, was some Q&A event, awesome dude

This man was one of the best

his rant on Cashier was my all time favorite clips in the internet..

He was my favorite player growing up. Loved his game and his attitude lol.

People forget that Barkley also had two of the greatest sneakers in basketball history!

Best PF in his prime overall IMO. Undersize 6’5” but dominated much taller guys at the same position or at center, outrebound them too. 💪🏻 Oh and he didn’t need a side kick ala stockton or parker to be great. Only downside was his nagging injuries.

Charles held the Sixers down for years. I’m from Philly.. I saw all those Sixers games during late 80s and 90s. Barkley and Mike were my guys!

The 93 finals was the best I've ever seen in my life, no joke. Sir Charles was one of the best players in my life time.
