Charles Barkley 56pts vs. Warriors 1994 Playoffs R1G3 (05.04.1994)

@Jon Davis number one is absurd. What do you call the work he did in Phoenix?

[@phatplateslyrical9045]

@Jon Davis before we go any further I have to ask...do you have some personal vendetta against him? It sure sounds like it by the way you're talking about him. That would make your opinion biased. Now if you're speaking as a fan of the sport, I have to stand by my original comment. All I have to say is that his back had to be sore as hell from carrying that team to the finals.

He was nice to watch. He should of stayed with the suns for longer. He was with the suns for four years.

[@powerboatguy2308]

I remember him as 6'4", 300lb center in college, strictly a posted player, but every once in a while he would take it coast to coast. Man did his game evolve.

[@SuperPettys]

What makes Sir Charles the greatest power forward in history is he did it all at 6'4" in a league where no power forward was under 6'10"! I love T Duncan cuz we from the same islands but he is 7'!

[@theconscientiousperfecter]

EXACTLY...make Tim 6'5...he NEVER PLAYS IN THE LEAGUE! Make Chuck 7'0...I just scared myself at that thought.

[@decimusrutilius]

Charles Barkley back in the day was PURE BEAST. This performance reminds me of LeBron James when he's on a tear, but Barkley just moves slower and more deliberately, LeBron is so damn quick and strong.

[@tarawillis3995]

why say back in the day? as opposed to now?

[@celcor]

Great outside equally devastating inside..and what amazes me is his strength

[@hanialimohamed9509]

that 1st quarter is the greatest 1st quarter played by any player in the history of the nba playoff amazing , really really underrated , no doubt top 18 /20 player of all time top 5 power forward

[@bonbal9184]

And they keep comparing Blake Griffin to this man? are they serious? Ill give Griffin the dunking part because he go over people while Barkley go chest to chest dunks. but that's mostly it. Barkley can do anything he wants.. Shooting mid range to long range. post up from left to right and shoot with either hands. And strength a 6'4 shouldn't have but he does. Yes Griffin can score 20 a game, but with a help of Chris Paul. Barkley dominated with or with out a help of a great point guard, and if he does have a point guard like CP3 Barkley would average 30 a night. and lets not even talk about rebounding, you guys know who will rule between the two of them. if you don't search it hahaha

[@bonbal9184]

by the way Barkley and Webber are wearing the same shoes.. haha Webber is a proud Barkley fan to wear his shoes and play with him thats just cool and respect.

[@nickpagano7134]

Don't forget his passing ability. Griffin can't hold a candle to this dude.

[@assholus228]

Bon Bal charles never had the long range game, he could get them in sometimes, but his % in the long 2s and 3s were horrendous by today's standard given the volume.

[@nickpagano7134]

gabe228 barkley averaged more 3s per game and has a higher percentage than griffin. lol i like blake, i really do, but barkley is better in nearly every single way.

[@assholus228]

[@CrazyFoo501]

Barkley was crazy good in his prime, he'd be the best player today. I almost forgot how good Green was on the fastbreak

[@theconscientiousperfecter]

GOTTA...ABSOLUTELY GOTTA point out to the folks claiming Tim Duncan as the greatest power forward one simple thing. If Charles Barkley was 7'0 tall he would have utterly destroyed the league even more than he already did. And if Tim Duncan was 6'5 he would have NEVER EVEN MADE THE LEAGUE let alone DOMINATE like Chuck did.

[@mskidi]

Appart from a total beast in the paint, Barkley was solid from midrange too. 56 points with 20 jump shots. Lebron needs 10 games to score that many long range shots.

[@shbears13]

Tim Duncan will always be second when it comes to Charles Barkley

[@vanishing_girl]

Barkley is either the 2nd or 3rd best player of his generation after Jordan (depending on how you feel about Hakeem), he is the only player who faced Jordan in the finals and didn't back down (he averaged 27-14-6 in the finals that year), he just had the terrible luck of having to go against Jordan/Hakeem 3 straight years in a row, and those were the only great teams he was on, after that his prime was over

my point is why u consider tim as pf and not center,for me his gamestyle is more similar to center.the same way why pur hakeem,robinson,ewing as centers and not pf?if a guard's gamestyle is more to create and pass and then score u call him a pg not a sg,so every position has some features and pf position the player should have a vamlance between inside game and outside,barkley,malone,hayes,mcale had these features and call them pf but tim did 't,his outside game is medium and 90% plays inside.

[@Defender80s]

Wrong Kid. Most of Jordan´s Assists Came From Drawing Attention Through His Drives Early in his Career When He Was A Ball Hogg Not Later On What Happened? He Started To Win, Why? Finally Jordan Listend To Phil Jacks On Letting Pippen Own the Game Creating Through his Point-Forward Play. Thats When The Bulls Won, When Pippen Became The Point-Forward. Pippen and Grant Made Jordan a Champion. Jordan Left the 1993-94 Season Pippen was Top 4 in PER, Top 10 in DRT (rest all bigmen), All Star MVP etc

[@andreasgr1740]

barkley never considerd sf man,early in his career drj play sf in 76ers,of course he had the quickness and outside touch to play sf,kobe and lebron were pg?in some plays or games maybe could play in other positions but none of them was pg.it's not only the otuside shoot man,it's general gamestyle of a palyer in offense-defense to,tim did n't play outside even as much as hakeem or ewing and u keep saying he was a pf.but even he was in my opinion is n't the best,u did n''t answer about hayes.

[@CJMusicChannel]

Barkely had Dan Majerle and Kevin Johnson..

[@andreasgr1740]

well who is getting ridiculous it's not u who decides!yes,griffin does n't have the outside shot but has other features of pf position as speed,quickness,dribble and griffin rare play post game and mainly begins his offensive moves from outside and does n't play 90% of his time in the paint.u keep saying only about shot when i already told u that is the general gamestyle man.of course u did n't answer me why tim is more pf than hakeem,robinson even ewing who are all centers.

[@andreasgr1740]

actually daugherty was very good player(not as good tim cause was medium defender)but in his offensive game had the same gamestyle,moves,very good passer for a center and mainly,as tim,playing in the paint.robinson was great player to ran the court and dribble,he was faster,more athletic and better shooter than tim and also play more face and not back forwards,as u say.also barkley did n't only dribble and shoot but had amazing post game,especially for his height,that's why he had 55 fg%!

[@andreasgr1740]

tim's game has more similarities with ewing,daugherty or barkley,hayes,garnett and malone?if u say the 2n then it's obvious u are crazy.but even if i accept tim is pf u say is better cause he s better defensively than barkley and malone that's why is better overall?barkley and malone were much better in offense but were also good in defense(not like tim of course),there are also hayes who was better in offense and at least as good defender as tim,what about kg?except u say that because of titles

[@Jurkass2]

CHARLES KORVER

[@Defender80s]

Jordan Created Pippen? Just Take a Look at MJ´s Play-Off Record Without Pippen, Grant and Phil Jackson (The Greatest Modern Coach). In 1993-94 Pippen Lead the Bulls in Everything, Just 2 Wins Lesser, Everyone Shot at a Higher FG% and Pippen´s Bulls Where a Bad Call Away from the Finals Again. Jordan Was a Great Individual Player But He Made No One Better But Himself.

To be accurate, Charles Berkley was 6'6 and Timmy is 6'11 and those two and one inches do make a small difference. But it's true Berkley dominated as PF while he was pretty short, but still gotta put Timmy as the best PF

[@lapson19]

[@Defender80s]

Kevin Johnson Was a Very Good Player Himself But He Was More of a "1st Drive-Shoot then Pass PG" He Played More Like a SG. He Was a Selfish Player and Didn´t Make Others Better. No Wonder He Shot like 42% FG in the 93 Finals and Averaged Just 1 More APG than Charles. He Was Good But He Wasn´t and Isn´t HOF Material. The Suns NeeDed a Better Defensive Center and a PURE PASS-TYPE PG. But Then Again Its Hard to Beat MJ, then Having Your 2nd Best Player Be PIPPEN!. Jordan Was Blessd With Pippen!
