He'd be a monster today with teams going with smaller 4s and a matchup nightmare overall.

Man Barkley would kill it in today's league.
While this is true, I wonder if he would be discouraged from playing PF early in his career and forced to change his game. I mean, dude is my height and played PF.

Charles Barkley and Vince Carter were in the league at the same time.
Going off your quote and what you just wrote, nobody knows what you're trying to say.
The average 12th man in the NBA these days is in better shape than ever.

And why, in this questions of older players comin' to the modern, we never account for (for example) Charles Barkley now being a beneficiary of 2014 Medicine, Training and Medical care, as if modern athletes are just inherited more physically gifted and it's not just a fact of modern science.
That's why I don't like these threads.
