People who never saw, will never know just how great Charles Barkley was at the game of basketball. One of the nicest guys who treats everyone he crosses equally. I met him at a Phillies vs Mets game just before the 92 Olympics. I remember vividly, in my squeeky 10 year old voice, the Mets just won, Charles is actually a Mets fan and give a fist pump (this was at the old vet), and I said "good luck in Barcelona Mr Barkley." He looked me dead in the eye, put his hand on my shoulder, and said "I appreciate that young man. Thank you, and God bless." Signed the back of my dad's dry cleaning receipt, I'll always love Chuck.

Isaiah was a hater simple. Great player but not a loyal teammate.

[@theOnyFUFU]

I remember seeing that on some basketball reference list and didn't make much of it until recently! It's crazy that a PG was able to do that in an era where you were expected to feed the bigs on offense, the 3 point shot didn't exist, and therefore you didn't have the spacing to drive to the basket 1-on-1! He lead the league in scoring as a 6"-ish PG scoring 2s! That's really impressive!

He is still a dirty player though.

[@incipidsigninsetup]

Riiiight. There's a reason Scottie, MJ, Bird, Magic didn't want him on that team. Isiah earned that disdain. You make choices and you have to live with the consequences. Nobody is saying Isiah is an awful guy or that he wasn't an amazing player who's talent should've been represented in the Olympics but did anyone see or hear Chuck Daley going to the mat for him? Chuck was his coach but he didn't say "look, my boy deserves to be here. If you want me as coach he has to play". Chuck knew how the top players felt and thought destroying team chemistry wasn't worth it for a guy who adds nothing to the team and Chuck was right.

[@NoGreater1]

Isiah was not a dirty player you can't find not one footage of him personally making a dirty foul. So stop saying he was a dirty player! You also can't find not one player that said that Isiah told them to put out an hit or issued a foul order on any player period! It was Laimbeer, Mahorn, and Roman actually committed the hard fouls along with the other Pistons big men that everyone's always complaining about. However you rarely hear anything said about them outside of Laimbeer. Roman dang near killed Pippen but you don't hear nothing much about that at all because he ended up becoming one of their teammates, just a bunch of whiny hypocrites!!!!!

[@GisherJohn24]

did he mean to say Ewing and Robinson? He said Centers Pippen and Robinson?

@@maverickrod2443 you missed the point. Chuck said MJ cared about being the best ball player. Everything else was bonus. That's what most great athlete and people say.

[@kevincommins1514]

I remember a regular season game between the Bulls and Trailblazers in Portland. Early on, Drexler made some great plays. I remember thinking, well, maybe Clyde is closer to Jordan in talent than I thought. Like on cue, all of a sudden Jordan went on a tear. One spectacular play after another, culminating with a dunk where he jumped at around the free throw line and soared over what seemed like 4 or 5 players. Greatest dunk in a game I ever saw. Bye bye Clyde. Case closed.

Daren Holloway of course it was deliberate man. People still talks about Isiah talent but with all those guys already in, you don’t need IT ... you need is to make them work together in harmonie AS A TEAM! that’s why he didn’t made the team. He (and a lot of others) wants to simplified that to “they left me out because o didn’t shocked his hand” so he can be de victim and claim “i met the criteria I should’ve been there” that’s way easier than say “I had beef with some of them and that’s why they didn’t want to play with me” right? I’ll hear him say “I met the criteria I should’ve made the team” but what you’ll never hear him say I “I GOT ALONG WITH MOST OF THEM and still got left out” 🤷🏻‍♂️
