Charles Barkley going off on This super team era

[NYC Rebel]

im sick of the game being covered by mad ass oldheads

i swear, nba coverage is just old nikkas sitting around complaining

can we find some young people that actually enjoy the game and era

Im SICK of them. Only sport that’s on this bullshyt.

 

[Sccit]

Why doesn’t it count when they lost to a 33-34 Stockton & Malone, you act like the West was really that good in the late 90s before Duncan/Webber/Kobe came along. They should’ve had a finals appearance

HE DIDNT TEAM UP WIT SUPERSTARS IN HIS PRIME

HE ALSO GOT TRADED TO HOUSTON, HE DIDNT MAKE FRIENDS WIT HAKEEM N PLAN TO TEAM UP

WAY DIFFERENT

 

[CrimsonTider]

And that feeling would be completely misguided

No it’s not

He got traded to Houston, because he bytched and forced his way out of Phoenix lmao.

Barkley was 33, Clyde and Hakeem were 34.

They lost in the WCF to the Utah Jazz; Malone was 33, Stockton was 34

They were the same age as their competition. These fraud ass old nikkas think they can re-write history like we don’t have access to internet.

Barkley was in his 12th nba season
Durant will be entering his 12th.

No difference

 

[Brandon M.]

Yeah they should want to play with shytty players, tell em chuck.

kawhi is playing with shytty players in toronto? lol

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

No, you’re adding pointless qualifiers to it. The average age in the NBA was 28 years old back then.

It was an old league. The old guys who were drafted in the 80’s were still the best players in the league and only those veteran squads were really the title contenders.

Barkley, Drexler (later Pippen), Olajuwon still put up numbers and were still among the top players at their positions. They won 57 damn games and Barkley forced his way there threatening retirement.

You're missing context.Barkley, Dream, and Clyde all had high mileage.None of those guys had Lebron's bionic genes.

Of course they won games.Back then you could still win off wiles & craftiness.The years of experience supplied them

with a lil extra reservoir of jet fuel.They were definitely pedigreed, battle tested vets.Just not in their prime or athletic peak

anymore.Just imagine if Bron, Wade, and Bosh formed together like Voltron right now...Would you still call it a super

team?

He was basically a journeyman vet at that point. Thats like shaq going to cavs.
A little different than if MJ had said fukk it, and demanded a trade to pistons in 90s.

No tf it wasn’t. Shaq was well past his prime on the Cavs he was 37.

Barkley was coming off an All-NBA season and averaged 19/13/5 foh

Yeah you’re right, 2 all stars and most improved player, ibaka and van fleet and Danny green. Scrubs man.

Not to mention he didn’t willingly go there. He got traded.

PAST HIS PRIME RING CHASING .. NOT BECAUSE HE WANTED TO PLAY WIT HIS BFF

LeBron is 35 with 50,000 minutes under his belt, D-Wade is 37 with a long injury history, Bosh is 35 and has a life threatening injury your hypothetical doesn’t even make sense and is nowhere near being the same.

The Rockets had just repeated two years before Barkley joined them.

All these guys were putting up great numbers and were among the best at their positions regardless of being in their athletic because once again like I told you the league was old and the best teams were the stacked veteran squads. Barkley wanted to ring chase and it was a super team.

Who complaining outside of Chuck?

You have a point. The flip side of that is, the NBA is the only sport that the players and current fans trashes the previous eras.

 

[Youseenmywork]

them niccaz was 177 yrs old

Sooo you can only do it when you get old ???

 

[Techniec]

He wouldn't have that energy if this goofy shyt got him a ring
