Barkley was 6'5, 6'6 going against guys 6'9 and 6'10, realistically what kind of D was yall expecting him to play.

What the hell does any of that have to do with basketball :beli:
its the truth. I dont care what this bitter old cornball brother has to say about anything in life.

Lol

dude shut up :heh:

Rodman was 6'7" and 215 lbs and was guarding point guards and guys much bigger than him. Barkley gave NO effort on defense and was proud about that.

He could have been a decent defender too considering his athleticism, long ass arms, and strength but chose not too. Stop :cape:ing.

Nobody is saying otherwise. People are just pointing out that he played little to no defense throughout his career.

I hold that shyt against Shaq too. Dude was the most dominant force the league has seen since Wilt but play little to no defense.

Think about Shaq's career as it stands right now......


Now Imagine what his career could have been like if he consistently played good defense. :whoo:

Shaq could been the GOAT and the only thing that stopped him from reaching that level was him. If he had the work ethic of Kobe or Duncan he could have been sitting on 7 or 8 rings right now.

Spurs fans are projecting on Karl Malone. They know if he's considered a center he's not the best. But as a PF he's arguably the best.

Rodman was a freak, and he was still 2-3 inches taller than barkley, and made his name solely based on his D. But your right Barkley could've given more effort *shrugs*

I'm so glad Karl Malone said this..

I've been sayin this shyt for years!!

Tim Duncan is a CENTER..

:umad:

Duncan was never a PF. He played PF because they already had David Robinson. He's still the best Center I have seen outside of Hakeem

YES i'd pick prime Duncan over prime Shaq every day of the week, 3 times a day. Double that on sunday :beli:

I value skill set and that is one thing Shaq always lacked to me. Yes he was the most dominant force ever in the game but he was limited in so many way. I've never liked players like that. I want my best player to be versatile. So yes I would pick Duncan over Shaquille any day.

Even though Shaq's offensive skills don't compare to Duncan's, he was def. the better offensive player in his prime. I think Duncan changed games on the defensive end while still putting up his offensive numbers though. :manny:

So really, Shaq great offensively with solid defense. Duncan was solid offensively with great defense. It's close regardless. :yeshrug:
