NBA On TBS - Charles Barkley Battles Larry Johnson Suns @ Hornets February 1995

[@zerimar26]

How did Barkley make that 3 point shot with Mourning in his face? Barkley was 6'6 and Mourning was 6'10. Just a great play by Barkley. His best clutch shot was against David Robinson in the 1993 playoffs.

[@chrisge3212]

2 of the premium PF's from the 90's. Great matchup!

@kanajingly8957 agreed

[@yellowduck-2024]

@kanajingly8957 That's Karl Malone

[@PIP...33]

@kanajingly8957 ITS BALOR ACTUALLY HE WAS 40 PPG 18 RPG. BARKLEY NEVER HAD 15 RPG OR 30 PPG. BUT I DO AGREE LARRY JOHNSON IS STAR RATING BARKLEY IS SUPERSTAR.

@kanajingly8957 NOPE ELGIN BAYLOR 40 PPG 18 RPG BEST IN HISTORY. HIS STATS FAR BETTER THAN MJ HE LOST VS 9 HOF CELTICS. WELL JORDAN GOT SWEPT BY BIRD. BAYLOR OVER MJ ANY DAY.

kids, please stop mentioning draymond green in the same sentence as Sir Charles

[@DavidOkutinyang-td4jt]

It's completely IDIOTIC! The comparison is non-existent!

[@rrogers2370]

Not even close

[@Daewonnni]

By the way this was Barkley in the tail end of his career with a bad back. People comparing him to Draymond is ridiculous.

Green can't be mentioned with Rodman neither. I'm sorry 💯

[@chrisdragoonkevin384]

This was a great Duel between LJ and Sir Charles. Mugsy was an elite Point Guard and Zo was a Beast at the rim.

[@TheEdub1]

Mugsy was good but never elite

[@yellowduck-2024]

That Hornets team was a size smaller than every other team

[@PIP...33]

@@TheEdub1 AGREE HE WAS USELESS IN PLAYOFF WHEN GAME START TO POST UP, WIN ON DEFENSE AND REBOUNDS, VINCE CARTER OR ZO HAD NO CHANCE WITH 5'2 STARTER. ITS LIKE PLAYING 5 VS 4 EVERY PLAYOFF.

[@R.POliver]

The Hornets breaking up is to be blamed on Gill and Johnson. Gill because he couldn’t accept being the third option and leaving to Seattle, and Johnson signing a ridiculous contract that bankrupted the team. They didn’t care about winning, just about individual glory and money.

[@Daewonnni]

Barkley notoriously didn’t practice. But his competitiveness in games is second to none. Going against a young LJ with a bad back and still getting buckets.

[@nikhileshnatraj331]

in his later years he did not. But he played almost the entire season. Him not practising -> load management

[@jeannejansen4023]

You could tell Chuck wasn't 100%, he wasn't blocking and rebounding as much as usual. When his back is working, he's blocking alot of those shots and getting the rebounds.

[@nmr20067]

Am I the only one notices that no one wants to dribble the ball in front of little Musgy? They all turn their back to him. No one tries to cross him up.. lol

"SIR CHARLES" was a underrated small-foward overshadowed by Bird and MJ

He wasnt underrated..he was the MVP of the league..he was also not a small forward..he was power forward...nbas top 50 greatest players all time!

[@tylerriley2587]

Again I’m going to keep saying it I still scratch my head and wonder why did the Hornets trade away Larry Johnson, to the big apple

[@spitnificent]

He lost his explosiveness and wasn’t the same player. It was obvious when he was in the finals with the Knicks in the lock out shortened 99 season.

[@tylerriley2587]

@@spitnificent still I think the hornets shouldn’t have traded him they gave him a $84 million contract for 12 years and then the 1997 NBA playoffs when the Knicks and Hornets he was on fire and save his best for last for game three showing the team that they should’ve traded him As for the Hornets, they let a lot of star players go in either trades or free agency fro basically not paying market value and this all stems from George Shinn the owner
