MVP Charles Barkley vs David Robinson INSANE Game 6 Duel Highlights 1993 Playoffs - CLUTCH Barkley! 

What took so long? lol jk Barkley's game would translate in any era present or future

It would be a crime to put him in this era where he'd be jacking up 10 3's a game. Barkley was meant to be a beast that attacked the lane on fastbreaks and pounded the ball in the post. There is zero variety in today's offense. The mid-range game is gone, the post game is gone and the excitement of watching people drive to the hoop is watered down because they don't have to overcome the physicality that they used to. It's not a good product.

@@theGTB4Jesus Christ if you don’t know what you’re talking about than stfu and you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about

dun forget late nite snack :)

and breakfast lunch n dinner again

Shouldn’t even be a comparison honestly, it’s so disrespectful to Barkley. Charles Barkley is a star player and one of the best to ever play the game while Draymond is just a role player that got lucky and won some rings on a team with good players.

@@cactusjack2264 holy words

It’s embarrassing that the comparison, that the question was even ever put out there. Barkley one of the goats and an absolute monster.

He even fights to grab the ball out of their hands too. Just forcefully yaks it from them. Not much of that today.

he was super close. If Suns just made a shot , out of the few they missed in game 6 vs bulls, they def would've gone to game 7.

Yes sir ! The 90s

Who was better between them

@@DrKub007 Robinson was great tf and could actually shoot unlike many bigs.

@@DrKub007 yes

Same basic experience here. Credit Barkley for being clutch, but as a Spurs fan, it hurt.

KJ is still one of my favorite player, I’m a Rockets fan and KJ always played great against us.

@@dejamike88 Whoa, lol as a long time suns fan that is an honor to hear from a rockets fan! We had some battles with Houston man. You usually only hear praise for KJ from the locals lol!

those Houston vs Phoenix playoff series in 94 and 95 were epic.

KJ could never stay healthy. That is partly why the Suns never won a Championship.

I’m a Rockets fan, but KJ was always one of my favorite players! One of the greatest point guards of all time and very underrated!

I was barely 8 y/o when this game existed. But yeah, Barkley was a MONSTER

i was 11:)

But where did that sweet shot go? Kenny still shoots better than most of the guests do. At least on that rim. Shaq about same as he ever was. Just slower. But my brother Barkley ain't got no game left in him apparently!

@@SCYTHE2525 donuts

@@SCYTHE2525 Don't let nostalgia and highlights blind you. Barkley did not have a "sweet shot". He's statistically *the* worst 3pt shooter ever among guys with enough attempts, and he wasn't that great from mid-range either. He did his best work in the post, around the rim, and after rebounds. Kenny Smith is and was a very good shooter.

Authoritative rebounding

Barkley had a better year than Jordan. He was the best player in the NBA at that time.

he was unstopable back then en the mans era no even centers denied his points and rebounds

he is all time leader only surpase by shaq and kareem but those was centers

You sound like a real old head when you say it like that lol. But I know how great Barkley was. He's top 25.

who you calling kids hah? Im a kid but i know who is charles barkley dude what a bully on you

Haha kid? Im a kid so you saying we kids are dont know charles i know him

And he is my best power forward in nba

Was he better than Robinson, Ewing?

I wish I saw him play. Seeing the highlights he was a big man in a lil mans body yet he was just as agile asa point guard

@@dwadeisthegoat2020 "lil mans body" dude he still was 6'6 lol

IlComunista1917 I know but compared to other bigs he is undersized

Oh sorry we born in year 2000s so sorry ok damn byt i know who is charles barkley and i watching him over mj

@@etienneditolve1567 He was advertised as 6’6”, irl he was 6’3-6’4. Not a little man, but considering how he played against guys that were way bigger, the above poster is not far off.

Barkley was never cold blooded. He was always fire on the court.

Mid range shooter, Yes. But as a 3 point shooter though he wasnt very good lol

Real shit. When everyone touched the ball on a possession to get a good shot instead of one guy jacking up every shot down the court

@@bbryant9455 Right ! I forgot NBA when Kobe shit started.

It's true. So simple.

Where I’m from we would call guys who dribbled for 20 minutes gunners ….always trying to be the highlight of the game and that’s all you see today miss the fundamentals of real basketball….

sabirsal yup until Duncan came .

Missed '92 playoffs with injury. Went out like this in '93. Lost Sean Elliot in '94 to trade for Rodman, was the entire team from a scoring perspective, got smoked by Jazz in Round 1. Got Elliot back in '95... had both Rodman and Elliot, Elliot's two missed free throws cost them game 1, and ended up losing in 6.... Hakeem shot the ball way more than Robinson (an insane 28 spg to 16 spg by Robinson), and played like he was hungrier (did the same in the finals against Shaq - 29 spg to Shaq's 18 spg). Hakeem was a better lone wolf than Robinson, Robinson continued to play team basketball. Not sure I can blame him for that, but it was a bad look when Hakeem was putting up crazy numbers. Lost Rodman in '96 and got smoked by an verge-of elite Jazz team... it was disappointing for sure. Injured in '97, but got an amazing gift in #1 pick Duncan. '98 they lost to truly elite Jazz again Duncan and Robinson were equals. '99 there was no stopping them, Duncan played more minutes and held it down while Robinson spent a little more time on the bench. Duncan better numbers, but per 36 minutes virtually identical (Duncan 20/11 Robinson 18/12). I almost wish Robinson would've demanded more PT/shots in '99 to have won a championship as an alpha dog, which I believe they would've... but that's not Robinson's true legacy... his true legacy is the Spurs legacy... as is Duncan's... giving up personal glory for the sake of the team. 5 rings in 16 years in little ol' San Antonio. It fits the city, and the players. Not gonna lie though, the lack of individual respect hurts.

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Elliot redeeming himself with the super-clutch 3 in the '99 WCF to beat the Blazers in game 2 and push the Spurs to a sweep!

@@patrickcommerce9713 Well put. I'd only like to kind've qualify to say that while Hakeem was playing hungrier which is putting it perfectly, at the same time he was playing as good or better team ball as Robinson at the same time along with better defense. He was just a monster. I wish our twin towers of Hakeem and Sampson had've worked out but things rarely go according to plan or ideally. I regret that Houston never got to face the Bulls during Houston's three prime seasons '93-'95, they certainly had a good chance to beat MJ and the bulls and if they did I think people would respect Hakeem's legacy a lot more, and even Robert Horry and everyone else on that team.

Only Chicago and Houston got rings in that time span you mention

From an Admiral fan... facts. :'( Tough though to put a center out on the perimeter guarding an MVP with SF quickness at his peak... I think Robinson could've gotten out there more though.

His game was around the top of the key. He would post up outside the paint. They had to change the rules because of him.

Hell of a post up game too! Especially for a guy his size!

Wu Liwei and he was a 2 time FG% leader, he was deadly.

Stop it, no he didn't. He lead in FG% because of his post game and work on the offensive glass. He absolutely did not have "a deadly midrange jumper". A highlight package will have people thinking things that weren't even close to true.

@trajan hercules highlights of one game don't define a person's career. *THEY'RE HIGHLIGHTS* of course he's going to look good in them. Even in three commentary they mention he wasn't a good shooter. We also have these things called "statistics" that prove you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Charles Barkley is *THE WORST* point shooter in the history of the NBA of players with enough attempts. Period

He had a good regular season but Karl Malone locked him up in the playoffs.

@@redpillfreedom6692 Lol I forgot about that. Was a sad series for Robinson

@@redpillfreedom6692Malone and Stockton knocked him out of the playoffs not once but 3 times. 1994 R1 - Jazz won 3-1 1996 WCSF - Jazz won 4-2 1998 WCSF - Jazz won 4-1

CPGoat #3 Lil dumb ass kids, man that’s who 😂

Yoa ming is trash didn't even breaks a record

@@thatstuff660 Yao Ming is the only player in NBA History to be an All Star every year of his career. His injuries really derailed his career. He could shoot well for someone so big.

Joseph Leon amazing passer too

23 Situations that

You mean , if it wasn't for the refs the Suns got cheated on game 7 Phx should of won the championship that year

@@ronaldescoto7673 There was no game 7, the series ended 4:2;-) I watched the complete finals several times, and i don`t vitnessed the refs deciding it. The Suns had good chances to win, but in important moments in crunch time did not performe or executed well. Thunder Dan, KJ,..they all had weak moments in crunch time. The Bulls supporting cast on the other hand, did performe. That last 3 by Paxson in game 6 was a masterpiece of moving the ball and finding the perfect shot. KJ on the other side did not get a good shot in the end. The play wasn`t great. He penetrated in a crowded paint, where Horace blocked him. Button line: the Bulls were simply the more mature team..

What about the 6th all time leading scorer with over 30k points reg/finals mvp and champion Dirk?

@@krlm2280 He would land outside the top five. Obviously an all-timer, but I would pick any of the five I listed before him.

If Sampson had've worked out Hakeem would've been the greatest PF of all time

You do realize Robinson was the only superstar in his team right? Barkley, Olajuwon & Malone had another star player to help win games. Robinson finally earned his when Duncan arrived. Let's get your narrative correct. Do you say the same thing about LeBron too? Or Michael Jordan too?

Now he's turned into a TV wraith sucking the soul out of the NBA with his ill analyzed comments.

Christopher Liu everyone can get rejected.

Oliver Miller is underrated, was a legend in college and use to block shaq's shot too just look it up.

Yep, Oliver was an undersized center at 6'9 but he has long arms & remember in Bulls vs Suns in Final he stole the ball from MJ

Vegeta The Goat u can say that for the whole league 😂😂😂😂😂

And for Hakeem. He smashed Chucks ass in 1994 and 1995.

I think hakeem and rokets would have beat MJ easily

@@christopherposton4521 Hell no, MJ retired in his prime at 31 😆 That MJ was the best player I've ever seen play a sport.

@@jsn23nc For real tho! MJ in his prime was hard to beat.

wweecwwcwtnanba1928 W

wweecwwcwtnanba1928 He was 6'4. And led the league in Rebounds multiple times. Just insane. Imagine what the Chuckster would do in today's league. He would eat every PF alive.

Dennis Rodman is listed at 6'7 but MJ said Dennis was 6'6 1/2

Yes but Rodman edge him a bit

Briefly. They were a good team during the first half of the 80s, with Gervin and Gilmore.
