Sir Charles Before Injuries! a Total Different Player than the Late 90s. He Dominated His Position from 1985 to 1995 like No Other PF. He Played on Some Very Bad Sixers Teams from 1987 to 1992 Prior to his Move to Phoneix. Injuries Began in 1994 and He Was Never The Same After that. When he Was Healthy It Was a Total Quaos for Post Defenders and Rebounders. He Was a Great Passer, Ballhandler, Creator, Driver, 1 on 1 Player, Post Player, Mid Range Shooter and Rebounder. In His Prime the Best PF!
Amazing how Barkley, at barely 6-5, could dominate inside againts teams that had 7-0 monsters like Robinson, Ewing, Shaq, Dream, Mutombo, Mourning, Parish, etc, etc. Barkely, with a bad back, took Hakeems championship teams to two 7 game series on back to back years, and it took some great clutch shots from Hakeems guards to win those series. I wonder if a healthier Barkely could have been the only one to take out Hakeem on those 2 seasons.
