theblackmamba323 Perfect lol

theblackmamba323

theblackmamba323 LoL

Any man who makes fun of any woman, probably has never kissed a girl and lives in his mom's basement! dumb ass

your very right

SHAQ

One other: Rodman

Him and Paul Pierce, but Paul Pierce is arrogant AF.

Mike Tyson

Chuck and rodman

this was the best joke followed by the wedding line. lol

@MANCHESTER UNITED Shut.the.fuck.up

@MANCHESTER UNITED *Football. Dumbass.

@MAN UTD basketball is, and will always will be, more entertaining and physical than 'soccer'

@M soccer is for wusses, it's not even a real sport

+Ed Vega chuck seems like he's missing a screw or two most of the time but he said couple of wise words in this speech.

+TupacolypseNow I think you're mixing up the persona with the person. If Chuck was as dumb as most people think he is he'd have been broke 3 years out the league.

No the problem with this planet is that young people today have no respect, can't joke about serious things and are a bunch of sensitive wossies. Charles is intelligent because you know why? He speaks his mind and is a great, great person. People that speak their mind are often charismatic and have dominating personalities which people of less intelligence are often enraged or afraid off. And stop pulling shit like this out of your ass. Idk why people are so damn up in skin colour, it's a sure sign of an idiot. I love charles, in fact most of the men I look up to are black, and I am as far from black as you can get. I'm hitlers image of a perfect human being. Tall blonde, blue eyes. But does it matter? am I any different than charles barkley for example? No. Stop making yourself look like an ass.

+mroboiz, thank you for the kind compliments. It takes someone dumb to know dumbness. Usually people who criticize others do it out of envy. Be happy with what you have whether it’s a little or a lot. Be an example to those around you. But here we like Charles Barkley because he brings smiles to our faces after hearing his speech. Thank you.

Watching Sir Charles speaking is like reading 10 books at the same time 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

***** And got dissed by Pippen. Then Barkley threatened to shoot him. I don't think he enjoyed playing with Pippen.

I think the point here that Charles was making was that Pippen is what made MJ truly great. He was making the argument that Pippen is the only thing giving MJ an edge over Barkley. Agree or not, it's a clever and accurate argument. Yeah, Barkley DID get to play with Scottie. When they were both WAY past their prime.

***** You're trying to tell me Pippen wasn't there or something? Like I just said, Agree with Barkley or disagree. All I said is I like what he's saying. He makes a point. Pippen was a huge weapon in MJ's arsenal. How are Jordan's stats gonna mean Pippen wasn't helping him? I don't remember the par tin the 93 season where Jordan was playing alone. Maybe then the stats would be more persuasive.

***** I am from Chicago, born and raised, lifelong and the very FIRST thing Michael Jordan (himself) said during his enshrinement, first thing he said and fully acknowledged was "Scottie Pippen" he fully realizes he would have won (nothing) without Scottie Pippen....That's why both he AND Scottie have statues and banners here in Chicago....

Howard Boyd Michael's speech was awful though lol I found it hard to even listen to all of it, it would have been much more poignant if he had treated everyone he mentioned with the same respect as he did Scottie. Without Pippen, Mike wouldn't have won 6, and vise versa, they needed each other. He is still (comfortably in my eyes) the best ever, and to be fair he has always given credit to Pippen. Anyways Chuck was obviously joking.

What kind of cancer

Madson Penha Non-Hodgkin lymphoma it’s a type of blood cancer the survival rate for it is really high so there was never too much concern

@@Chris-mr5nj no matter whatever cancer you go through it's always a cause of concern

VincentHanna121 stfu

Where u been

True. Barkley was top 3 player in his prime. Some years he was 2nd to MJ.

The era where the badass players played. Too bad coz he played against MJ but his speech is so humble just thanking everyone who help him. MJ is a dick.

Yup

lol i dont think ive ever heard anyone say hes not a HOF player, hes considered one of the best at his position in history. Anyone who thinks hes not is a millennial who probably thinks curry is the greatest of all time (what a joke)

Daz555Daziyyyh

The Rogue Scholars Podcast AGREE 100%

@Positive Mentality It's just a nickname

Olin M Imomihz Sr. Charles for respect. The guy was a monster for his size. 6’5” or so and he dominated the glass and post. He was the height of a guard yet he pounded the paint with 7 footers. This dude was awesome!!!

Benjamin Joseph Silverio and that’s why their relationship went sour

@@ViverrineZeus Really? Why are they no longger friends?

Nigel Andandi he criticized how Michael Jordan ran the Charlotte Hornets

Jesus Zavala they are friends

Nah, so far they’re not anymore.

okk

Not quite up to Bird with the Dream Team though. "A cast of characters - and Charles Barkley." Or the "long travels" of the 1960s teams....

He is a man, yall forgot what that is.

Facts!

from back then and even until now he's still the realest guy in the NBA

Jace Barnett Lebron has 30000 points with 8000 assist and 8000 boards.how many have done that?.....

this aint about Lebron, gtfo

@@thestilt8953 LeBum has lost 5 NBA finals. How many players have lost that much?

@@TK0S3 6 finals.

@@TK0S3 and there are some. West,Baylor

I love charles barkley but he is not intelligent. He didnt average 8 assists a game. Nor did he run the floor.

Not giving assists doesn't mean you're not intelligent....

+Bob Walker Obviously Charles isn't a rocket scientist, but I wouldn't say he's "not intelligent" in terms of a Rhodes Scholar, but he is smart in that he has good common sense and instincts. Then when you combine those attributes with a guy who TRULY speaks his mind (and says to hell with PC, thankfully) the way few other people can, then that's quite a formidable individual. And I say this as a hardcore Celtics fan, so it's not like I have a bias or ulterior motive in favor of Charles. But he was not only one of the greatest players ever, but is truly just one of a kind as an all-around person.

He is inteligent. You know what is one of the traits of inteligent human? To have sense of humour. He has it ;)

I've seen some highlights of Charles Barkley when he played for the 76ers and Phoenix Suns and one thing I liked was that he was like a vehicle without brakes. he would run through every player and slam the ball in. he was fearless forward player

H C Totally agree with your comment unlike the other dude here who said it was an ok speech and made a wrong reference to his TNT colleague Ernie Johnson (it’s not Ernie Banks!).

not so much about the Phoenix Suns......a lot of bitterness

Chuck hayes ?

Juan Tamad Who's talking about Chuck Hayes

Eric Matterson chuck hayes is a 6'6 pf that dominates people 4-5 inch taller than him , in my opinion he is this generation of charles barkley

Eric Matterson I never saw him play.

Eric Matterson i think he plays for the raptors , you should watch him more , he can really dominate like charles barkley did back in the day

You forgot hakeem

How the fuck do you forget Hakeem????

+MONIKA STIPIC Olajuwon, Ewing, Malone, Payton/Kemp, Dominique up until about 94', David Robinson, Miller you left out quite a few quality names

+Ricky Moss you all need to chill, man :D remember, that era had unbelievable amount of great players. I must say I would struggle to even mention half of them if someone asked me to :) Great years for NBA ;)

Clyde, hill, Kobe, Zo, Vince, iverson, Kidd, Webber, Garnett, Marbury, Ray Allen, Duncan, David Robinson, Glen rice. These dudes would murder today's NBA.

Rob C Literally gold

As I watch now, I think that wife is divorcing him. Wow

jondough7777777 damn she did

Ddaaaaayyyumm! Savage!!! Haha

jondough7777777........ wow! Yes!! What is it with Kenny? I mean one divorce, maybe two...... BUT THREE?? Come on Kenny!!!!! Time to take a good hard look in the mirror and ask yourself!!! WTH YOU DOING WRONG!!!

RIP MOSES

RIP Moses

RIP BIG MO !!

- "I checked my transcript. in 3 years, i'm still a freshman." Sir Charles

My eyes were watery after that lol from laughing

One thing I love about Chuck is that he cares about people and things but he doesn’t cate what you think of him. I’d vote Chuck for president.

I agree

All sports? You live in such a small world

I would rather hang out with Chuck, Tim Duncan, Bill Russell than MJ

bark

Yes, clown buffon with a socalled college degree. Sigh...

@@williamjones7247 judging by your spelling, I'm not sure you even have a so-called high school diploma.

@@robertridley9279 Lol...clearly you're short on intellect and common sense. Obviously a typo but you go with your negative side and make assertions you can't possibly prove. Some ppl in life.. sigh.

Charles said it that way on purpose! He was the greatest!

Barkley, Stockton, Malone, Miller, Ewing...yeah you don't necessarily have to win a championship to be great. Every single one of those men would have a championship if it weren't for the Bulls.

Genuine and authentic 13:24

Tnt is a job

Edgar Alvarez I’m pretty sure he means a regular 9-5 job. TNT is hardly a job, he watches NBA games and then talks about them.

@@MegaHariboboy hey, im only going by what chuck said. Tnt is still a job so hes gone back on his word bruh, is all im saying haha.

@@MegaHariboboy I mean that's not all the do. Things go on in the background.

@Raymond11 how do you know where he's at ?

Conscious speech ever!! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Tim Duncan was the best Pf

Ever heard of a guy called Karl Malone?

no doubt

@@Bobsend Karl is not better than Charles

I agree 100 percent.

LSAML KASKUS except for rodman lol

Absolutely. The talent was so evenly spread among the league during those decades. Almost every team had at least one legendary player leading the troops. This made the competition so wonderful. When it came time for the playoffs, these legends met and created the fiercest battles for the crown. Cannot be topped today, when the league has become so lobsided with every talented player belonging or heading to the Western Conference, and joining forces if they can't beat one another in heated battles. Love the '80s and '90s basketball forever.

LSAML KASKUS Oh yes, i miss this time too. Today is only 3 points game. Fucking....boring

yes it was

Facts lol

He is! ;) on TNT

Also RIP big Moses, man😕

Sean McCarthy same

Same here. Still collecting anything Barkley up to this day

As a fellow chicagoan you weren't a true bulls fan then. Everyone loves barkley. But u can't root for another team while playing your home team. Unbelievable

if he ran for president his slogan would be "I thank y'all" lmfao

Yes, i definitely agree CHARLES BARKLEY was one of the best players who played in the nba. What i admired most is him being true to himself

I respect your opinion but I think when it comes down to comparing decisions on the floor Duncan is better. Charles took some questionable 3's at times when he shouldn't have but he's still one of the all time greats.

dagameplayer The fact that Barkley attempted and made 3's while he was arguably the most undersized 4 man in history all while still banging in the post is the reason why I enjoy him more than TD, despite the fact that I loved Barkley since I saw him in Space Jam as a kid. Tim and Karl were very old school (nothing wrong with that), but Barkley, Laimbeer and Arvydas Sabonis have taught us that Big Men don't always have to think BIG. BIG meaning only mid range and post up shots only. Guys like those 3 were the REAL blueprints of positionless basketball despite the Golden State Warriors being the current spokesmen for that style of ball. Without those 3, Dirk, Rasheed, Brad Miller, Matt Bonner and all other complete bigs in terms of ability and not being complete statistically would've probably never happened, or at least happened the way they did.

Brad Miller was very underrated.

He was probably the flashiest PF ever. Top 5 maybe top 3 still one of the best if you ask me. Just because he was undersized at his position.

@@Eldin4321 and the funny thing was he still dominated

apart from rodmans :

Isiah loves this kind of stuff.

Was he at MJ's?

Nate Polus yes

Butters 😂😂😂😂
