Charles Barkley - "The NBA is the worst it's ever been"

[Illin Degenerate]

Anyone who could guard Lebron could also guard Barkley, because Barkley offers NO advantage on Lebron.

wait, youre serious? so every small forward that you'd put on lebron you'd also put on barkley? does that go for karl malone as well?

You're trying to simultaneously claim that the 1990s had better post games AND better post defenders, so someone with a post game could kill in 2017. Think of how stupid that logic is.

arent you saying there are better shooters now and better perimeter defenders? is that stupid logic too? i like how you disregard post play. didnt lebron get his first title after working on his post game after the dallas series? so which one is it? players are just as good in the post offensively and defensively now or not? because in one sentence youre saying they are then the next youre saying they dont care to work on it since its a waste of time developing those skills.

And you're still not telling me what he would do. You claim, "Barkley being guarded against different players", but why? Since he's a shorter, fatter, slower, less athletic Lebron, they could guard him with any forward they thought was best. Anyone who could guard Lebron could also guard Barkley, because Barkley offers NO advantage on Lebron.

So what would he do?

No advantage except that he was superior in the post to Lebron.

They wouldn't have gotten away with putting smaller players on Barkley like they did Lebron, you're an idiot for thinking otherwise and probably just a delusional stna in your own world of "if Lebron couldn't do it than Barkley obviously couldn't either".

fukk Charles Barkley c00n

 

[Illuminatos]

90s nostalgia fags at it again.

LeBron
Curry
Harden
Westbrook
Durant
Kawhi
CP3
AD
Cousins


You literally have a top 2 player in his prime still playing in LeBron, the greatest shooter of all time in Curry, a player averaging a triple double, a player that just upped a 50+ point triple double, one of the most polarizing teams of all time in GS etc.

Borderline All-Stars/Franchise talents

Lillard
PG13
Butler
Hayward
Wall
Derozan
Whiteside
IT
Kyrie

A young influx of talent in Giannis, KP and KAT

This era is as talented as any other era. In this decade alone we've seen the Lakers, Heat, Mavericks, Spurs, Warriors and Cavs win titles. 6 different champions in 7 years but you nikkas suck the 90s dikk so much that watching Jordan beat up on the league and win every year is actually considered "better" in your eyes.

Bordeline?

 

[The War Report]

Y'all know damn well Chuck doesn't watch basketball like that. He barely watches the games he's suppose to.

 

[Illuminatos]

Bordeline?

Those guys are better served as 2nd options. If they're the best player on your team you're probably not going anywhere.

All those guys led their team to the play offs almost every year. Trippin cuz

 

[Insun Park]

Most of the people who are shocked about the lack of parity in the NBA were probably 90s babies who started watching in the early to mid 2000s like myself

 

[Draje]

Doesnt change my point though, hell we could even bring up that little light bright from phoenix, devin booker

You just naming nikkas who have thrown up three pointers at any point in time and saying its a league wide epidemic?

You stupid fukk. I named plenty of players who aren't light skinned and shooting threes

Barkley wasn't anywhere near the passer out of the post that Lebron is and its Lebron's ability to create easy looks out of the post that makes him so dangerous.

Lebron's post game is so dangerous because it's extremely hard to double him which is how you have to deal with dominant post players like him.

I've always thought the NBA was trash until like 2008, but I'm only 25 myself.
