As Charles Barkley said: No shame in losing to Jordan. Respects 🙏🏽
kabagema yannick Jordan isn't better than Bill Russell period
Yeah, Barkley was in good company in that regard. But it's great that everybody still respects each other.
@@SpideyL96A1 Less than 10 teams his era
@@SpideyL96A1 9 HOF teammates in a 10 team's league FOH...
James Jenkis Henever said Jordan was the best. He said Wilt was. Stop it!
People sleep on how good Barkley was. He had the best stats on the dream team.
I just wish that Charles committed himself to paying defense. Charles was worse than James Harden when it came to defense and I think it if he would’ve committed himself to both ends of the floor he would have had a ring. It was the same issue Pippen had with Barkley when they briefly played together.
@pep 7200 You probably stop watching basketball after 1993. He was great, but there are so many players greater than him (Duncan, Hakeem, Shaq, Malone, etc)
Taon Sauls i dont think so tbh hes 6’5 guarding post players lol
And plus it was way more physical down there back then for him to rebound on both ends and play defense
@@HPcelui 6'4 Powerforward. going against guys 5 to 8 inches taller than him he still dominated in the age of the bigman
Barkley such a beautiful soul, apologizing to not be able to guide his team. A totally deserved MVP
100% He deserved MVP when he was at the 76ers as well.
He was up drinking and partying with women the night before.
Of course he should've set the right example. Sheesh.
Charles barkley is a humble man. He is one of the greatest players in NBA History.
Definetely deserves top 50 player. I have him mid 30's over all
Barkley was a beast
Barkley has always got my respect. Gives his props to whom it’s due never is a hater. He knows basketball doesn’t make him the person he is.
Wow, very good point. Basketball doesn’t make him the person he is. That’s why he doesn’t feel insecure about it. Love the way you put it.
That's a lie he picks on Draymond.
Obitrice For life all around great dude
So true, he is a real gentleman
@@dionsmith3427 Draymond talks the most trash but cant stand one hilarious joke gtfo

He was top 3 for at least 3 years imo

So many people forget what a beast Charles was.
@@kostas666lelapas3 i would say 8
No one makes fun of Sir. Charles .
Hall of Fame player and a terrific
NBA commentator .
Charles just goes straight to the point with all honesty always..love him for that, sucks that he never won a ring but he has earned more respect of fans and players as a man compared to others that have even multiple rings..
the perfect image for why Championships are not everything
@@kurtpunchesthings2411like lil reese say “i gotta do my research on this shii” i started watching barkley highlights when i was 14 ever since then he jus been a goat w no ring in my eyes . He was cold 🥶😭
As a SUNS fan for over 30 Years, I will always have the highest respect for Charles Barkley. Thank You for the Memories. You were definitely the MVP. No one will ever take that away from you.
Respect to Chuck for giving Horace Grant his props. Very underrated player.
Also, a great guy to meet in person. Very humble and down to earth.
Horace Grant was such a great player. I loved him on the Bulls and I loved him when he joined the Orlando Magic
... and I agree with him on that one.
Major respect to Chuck on that comment. I too always felt Horace was a more complete a better overall basketball player than Rodman. Chuck and I are not alone in this regard, either. Chuck breaks it down well too. That Rodman was a Supreme rebounder and a superb Defender. But Horace could get you 12 to 15 a night, was a very good catch and shoot player and seemed to get open under the Hoop as he got many easy dunks off passes. And he certainly did his job on the glass and as a paint defender as well.
That absolute nonsense. Horance Grant did play great for the Bulls but he is clearly not a better overall player than Dennis Rodman. Dennis Rodman is a hall of Famer and a 2x defensive player of year, 7x rebounding champion, 2x all-star, 7x all defensive first team and a 5x world champion. Stop it! I love Horance Grant but he's not in the same class as Dennis Rodman and its not even close.
chuck was really good. his prime just didn't last long like others, don't let this funny humble soul fool you, the guy had his time as a monster.
@1- 20 - 7 LG He was in his prime for awhile, its just that his best years got wasted on a god awful philly team
Brook Lopez facts. The best undersized PF ever
Draymond reminds me of barkley
young btchs today don't know who chuck was back in philly and phoenix, and have the nerve to compare him to green come on.
nabil chowdhury voters fatigue and Suns had a better record. Same thing happened with Lebron and DRose in 2011.
"Ya know, number one," - has Barkley ever gotten to a number two in all these years of basketball analysis?
😂😂
At least he took the MVP over no.1
He is a number 1 genuine guy! He says what he thinks and it has cost him his friendship with MJ, a man he loves!
😂😂😂
Sometimes he goes backwards, I remember when he was talking about his top 5 nba players of all time - no.6 is Kobe, no.7 is lebron 😂😂
Charles Barkley, you didn't "deserve" the MVP that season, you freaking earned it!
umm..... okay i get the intention. liked!
Priyanshu Sharma 💀ikr either way he earned it
If you have earned something then you therefore deserve it. Because you earned it.
So he did deserve it....
Uhhh
And they try to compare Draymond to this man lol please
Draymond couldnt even be the ball boy on the 90's teams
Exactly man
Only thing comparable is they play bigger than they are. Barkley (obviously) way more so.
Please!
Green is useless without the Big 3
Always respect chuck, he didn’t have enough to beat the bulls and gave a hella of a fight, they went out swinging. Pisses me off a little when Shaq brings up championship against chuck, shaq had Kobe and wade.
Wow I'm the only one who saw that barkley was open at the basket to Force game 7 but didn't get the ball because kevin Johnson try to shoot the ball and gets blocked
Couldnt agree anymore. Shaq can say whatever he wants about that early 2000s laker team they wouldn't have won against any of those bulls teams plain and simple. He was fortunate enough to be in his prime when MJ wasnt
@Aaron9 but with seconds remaining barkley was open at the basket kevin didn't pass the ball they still had the game
O'Neal is a moron. Don't pay any attention to anything he says.
Samuel Vega Even going back to Charles on those 76ers teams that could not get past the Piston... same thing.
I recorded that 93 finals on tape, and still have it.
Barkley at 6'5" was one of the most dominating power forwards to ever lace up and run the floor.. That's right everyone.. 6'5"!! His numbers got better every year he played til his stint with Houston and a shot at a ring.. Then the injury.. If he were in his prime right now he would as great if not greater a force at his position.. Hall of famer and deservingly so.. Thank you #34 it was always awesome to watch you play..🤙
He dominated like he was 6'10", got mad respect for Barkley.
Houston Barkley? A very underrated performance by him in '99 vs the Lakers.
He could barely jump.....and pretty much all his explosiveness was gone by then.....and LA could not stop him!
AND, had he been primarily a one dimensional rebounder, as Rodman was pretty much was after leaving Detroit, I feel he and Dennis likely would've shared some rebounding titles. But he didn't play that way. He contributed in many areas of the game.
I agree he deserves MVP That season Charles Barkley wasn't no joke he was very good especially for being undersized at Power forward he was a great player he earned MVP That season no disrespect to the greatest MJ
under what metrics?
He was an oversized pg
tony grate Go look at the individual and team stats before u get in an argument u don’t want. He’s not saying he’s better than MJ he’s saying he has a better season and he did he carried that team to the finals.
Barkley turned the Suns around and had a spectacular year involving his teammates as well as his own game. Best regular season record.
Chuck deserved the MVP, period!
@nabil chowdhury i say yes because,,his 3 point percentage 5% lower than Jordan..for a power forward at that time 30%was good..Jordan has the points,,but 25 a game on 52% is awesome..of course rebounds going to Chuck..but only one more steal than chuck..so the dividing factor for me is..the bulls had a better team,,but for chuck to do what he did with his next 2 best players being a 6'0 pg,, and a off screen/ spot up shooter..he balled out that yr..the bulls role players don't get enough credit they were perfect for that system..those 12-15 foot jumpers Longley,,Wennington,,and Cartwright would shoot was money..they were dam near automatic..bj,,kerr,,judd,,Hodges they were money from 3..if im not mistaken they all have won a 3 point contest or came close..i know Hodges had the most points (3s) in a round for the longest though..
"I take full responsibility" - Sir charles really got gigantic cojones. Unlike other "star players" who puts up a show just to avoid the blame.
Rexy Flexx to be fair chuck is older and wiser now. In his prime his ego was big too
Like who?
@@aynakoitzjose Coaches getting blame over players
Charles always has been real
it really was the perfect comparison how a big part of how they lost that series was they were not ready for Game 1
back in 91 when the Bulls beat the Lakers yes the Lakers won game 1 a big part of that was Magic's experience going into 91 that was Magic's 9th Championship game had previously gone 5-3 in the other 8 for Jordan and the Bulls that was their first dance in the big game so it took them a bit to adjust
the Bulls made 1 key move they realized Jordan Guarding Magic was a very bad idea so they switched they put Pippen on Magic and then they crushed them in a reverse sweep 4-1 series
sadly for Barkley his game was Jordan's 3rd and as he admitted his team were not prepared for game 1 in the other 5 games his team lost 3-2 which is really not that bad considering the slow start against the back to back defending NBA Champions they put up more of a fight then the Lakers did they lost game 6 thanks to pretty much a last second 3 pointer from John Paxson had that shot not gone in they win game 6 series 3-3 where anything could have happened in game 7
People, get over it. Barkley won regular season mvp and he’s not claiming to be the goat. He knows Jordan is the goat, but he just had a better regular season that year. Period
Exactly what chuck said lol
Jason Rowson that dude is just dumb lol
Jason Rowson, just repeating for emphasis, if you and the other idiot know what that means.
Thanks Sherlock 👍
True True buuuut jordan has never said he is the goat too
Chuck was a bad dude on the court...if only some of these youngsters knew.
Nahhhhh these youngsters and "experts" on ESPN will tell you Mr. Triple-Single Draymond Green is much better than Chuck LOLLLLLLLL
I would love to see these players today go up against him in his prime. He would destroy them and probably shorten a lot of their careers

I love Charles Barkley when he was with the Suns. Very aggressive player that hustled for every ball.
He was a beast with Philly, they just never got him any help when he was there.
@@bentonja668 too bad when he first got there it was the end for Julius and Moses. imagine those 3 being closer to their primes together.

He turned the Suns around! The Suns were my favorite team then before Sir Charles joined & he made a huge difference! Took them to the Finals, bro!
Barkley has been saying what I have been saying about how they give out MVP. They usually give it to the best player on the best team.
Except when Westbrook got it having okc at 6th seed due to him having the 3ple double season.
Ryan M Lebron too
Lee Walk Lebron was pretty much trying to say that there needs to be a MVP award and an Offensive player of the year award because he haven’t won MVP since he left the heat.
Jonathan Padua he had a historical record breaking season he had to win it
@@Cheeze410 In 87 Jordan was the first to score 3000 points in a season since Wilt and didn't win the MVP - also was the first to have 200 steals and 100 blocks in a season in NBA history that year and nobody but those two have ever scored more than 3000 in a season. In 89 Jordan went 32 8 and 8 with a 31.1 PER which is still in the top ten all time EVEN now. Still didn't win the MVP.
That 93 finals series was one of the best series as an entirety. If people want to watch a great series get a hold of that. I was up at all hours of the night watching that in Australia. It was amazing 🤩
Good Thing about Charles he always says what he feels and what is in his mind. huge respect to Sir Charles Barkley I think one of the best to play the game
I have so much respect for Charles Barkley, such a great man and great player, great sportsmanship.
Everybody should learn from him.
Barles Charkley is THE MAN. I am a lifelong and currently struggling Phoenix Suns fan. When I was a kid we had season tickets for the Phoenix Suns during the 1992-93 season when the Suns went to the finals against the Bulls. Charles never got enough credit during his playing days when it came to hustle. That man hustled and never took any time off during the season. And at least that season he hardly ever took a play off either. He was a 6'4" power forward back when the average size for power forwards was 6'10" and 250lbs! So he had to really play hard.. and not only did he succeed night in and night out against bigger players, but he dominated them both offensively and on the boards. But what got me the most was the fact that he was just an everyday dude if you met him in person, which my dad and I did. I wore a homemade t-shirt all year that said Charles Barkley will win the MVP. We sat in the third row up above the Suns bench. And to my surprise when he won it..he came up to me and my dad after a playoff game against the Seattle Supersonics, and gave me a pair of his shoes that he autographed. He said he noticed my shirt a few times throughout the season and told himself that if he does indeed win the MVP he's going to do something special for me! He sat and talked to my dad and I for 10 minutes and it completely took me by surprise that he was just a humble everyday dude. I still have those sneakers..I was offered $2500 for them a few years, back but elected to keep them so that I could give them to my son when he's 18.
Keep those shoes for life!
As an avid NBA fan back in the 90’s, it’s crazy how many “what if’s” came out of this series. The Suns had game 6 in the palm of their hands......and gave it away! They held the Bulls to a total of 9 points through the entire 4th quarter, and led them by 4 points with under a minute remaining, AND HAD THE BALL!!! If it wasn’t for a ridiculous crazy ending, that series would have went to game 7 on the Suns home floor. Nobody will ever know what would have happened in game 7, but I think the Bulls would have had a VERY tough hill to climb. Phoenix had finally put it all together, and I believe they would have won game 7 on their home court.
Wow, I never knew it was that competitive, thanks for sharing.
Hero, while everyone had a pair of Jordan’s I always had my Barkley shoes on. Best time in basketball.
Jordan & Barkley were so exciting to watch especially when they went up against each other, on the court Barkley was Jordan's nemesis but outside the court they were very good friends, they were both great.
@David that's sad, I didn't know. 😢😢
@David Jordan is a prime example of someone who can dish it but can't take it.

How dahell we forget?
BWAHAHAHA - that's awesome! Triple single!!!

Lucas Nauan 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Most underrated soundbite from this interview with Sir Charles: "Michael Jordan was the best basketball player ever about three or four years before he ever even won MVP."
how quickly we all forget..
I do remember the 93' season very well and Charles was a monster that year. Incredible!
Barkley’s mvp year was one of the few guys that actually deserved it his year over MJ. Dude was unreal
Charles was one of the best in an era of so many all time greats! Loved watching his teams go againat the lakers,bulls, celts and pistons
I’m not really a sports fan, but watching the Last Dance and hearing Charles Barkley talk about responsibility and that it was his job to shepherd his time is so heartwarming. I wish more people had that attitude with everything.
The fact that Charles can confidently say “i played better than Michael Jordan during the regular season” is pretty insane: he’s hands down one of the greatest players of all time. Charles is a great tv personality but I truly believe he is one of the most underrated players of all time, after Scottie Pippen.
MJ never won anything without Phil or Pippen.

Yeah I know, It's nuts!
I'll see myself out now
This guy is a great role model for any young athlete.
Play hard, put in the work, respect your opponent, be humble.
It's fair to say that Barkley and Jordan will never have the same relationship again but listening to Charles talk about Jordan you would think that they're still good friends. I have so much respect for Charles because he doesn't hold a grudge. Much respect!
I'm a Jordan fan but Barkley has a valid point on this one.
Sir Charles the "Warrior" Barkley is easily one of the GOATs in NBA history. Thing is, as great as he was as a Player, he is even better now at his new job being a Commentator! As a commentator, he might be the GOAT. He keeps it more Real than anyone, that is what makes him Great.
I ask you, is Sir Charles better at his current job or was he better as a player?

SAGA EJ1 Michael Jordan was OBSESSED with winning, like borderline psychotic how obsessed he was with winning. It’s the greatest thing about MJ imo. Like there was no such thing as losing, he legitimately REFUSED to. Every star athlete should be this way. Only ppl that remind me of that mentality is Kobe, Usain Bolt & Tom Brady.
Love MJ and wanted him to win everything! But I remember that season like it was yesterday and Chuck sure won that MVP Which he so much deserved 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Agreed
Jalen said, "My recolations." A mix between relations and recollections. My "recolations" is positive on that one.
Part of the lexicon now
When you can be, no filter true with yourself, honest to your own shortcomings and failures, without deflections and blaming of other, you are a wholesome winner.
Barkley was my favorite player in that era, MJ was my no.2
Chuck is the reason I started playing basketball.
Charles speaks his mind. Is honest to a fault. Knows the game as well as anyone. His work on TNT is stellar.
Horace Grant was my number 2 favorite player for some years. He was consistent and smooth.
Barkley was a Beast!! His intensity was fierce. His drive and desire to win was second to none. Love Barkley.
I love Jordan (I love Barkley too) but Barkley deserved the 1993 MVP. Chuck already joined a good Phoenix team of course (53 wins the year prior) but Barkley helped improve his team to 62 wins whereas MJ's Bulls went from 67 wins in 1992 to 57 in 1993.
The Suns were also dealing w/ more injuries than the Bulls- Kevin Johnson (3rd leading scorer and leading play-maker), Richard Dumas (4th leading scorer), and Oliver Miller missed a combined 93 games whereas key injuries to the '93 Bulls were Cartwright, Paxson, Trent Tucker, and Scott Williams all missed only 66 games. I'd say that Barkley's injured teammates were more important to the team than Jordan's injured teammates.
Haha ok bro. He won it it's all good. Jordan showed up when it mattered most.
@@shotz2692 so did Scottie Pippen. Who else showed up for Phoenix
I remember that season vividly and Barkley richly deserved the MVP that year. He put it all together and really elevated that Suns team and he WAS the MVP.
Barkley deserved the MVP in 1993. He turned the 4th seed Suns into a championship caliber team with the best record in the NBA, while averaging 26/12/5. The Bulls won 10 less games in 1993, and at the end of the regular season, it looked like they would lose to the Knicks in the playoffs. Now Malone definitely did not deserve the MVP in 1997 over Jordan. The Bulls won more games and Jordan was obviously the better player.
People often forget that aside from being Regular Season MVP, Chuck was no slouch during the Finals. He averaged 27.3 pts/13 reb/5.5 ast/1.2 stls/0.5 blks. In any other Finals those were considered monster stats.
But he was STILL surpassed by Jordan in nearly all statistics save for rebounds.
That how good MJ was that period.
Mj dropped 40 a game believe
And steals. Jordan was the Steals Leader that season and made both All NBA and All Defensive 1st teams as well.
I had so many barkley nba cards before he was my fave player and garnett
Did you sell the cards?? Where are the cards?!??
Kevin Johnson was a beast for that Phoenix team. I loved Thunder Dan too. They all adopted Barkley's personality, never backing down.
So many great iconic teams in the 90s.
I respect Charles so much! One of the best players to not receive a ring. Charles and and the jazz brothers are legends that should never be forgotten
EVERYTHING MOTIVATED JORDAN!
Losing motivated Lebron to losing for shop for a team he could win with.
Nope, Rodman wishing he'd talk to him didn't motivate him, for instance. He wasn't an emotional leader, and being a good emotional leader could have motivated him, but that didn't occur to him.
Barkley's personal arc--going from a lost and angry young man to a mature and thoughtful adult, has been nothing short of stunning....
Not only was Barley a great player but he seems like a great man, humble and honest. I wish he could have got at least 1 ring
Charles was beast that year,well deserved MVP title,plus the finals were very competitive.
I am a diehard Bulls fan, but how can anyone dislike Barkley
ask Oak.
Chuck is one of the 🐐’s just watch his highlights and look up his stats.
You do know there can only be one 🐐?
@@findthetwats Which one?? Chamberlain still holds the scoring record of points in a game. Kareem, Russell, Duncan, Etc had all badass careers and that is just the center position. There were many goats for many generations. Lebron is about to be an analyst.
I hear you but the term is greatest of all time. To me you have to put one person that's done it better than anyone else.
Man Charles saying "I take full responsibility for not having my team ready to play game 1" all these years later. Woww...man that is passion and you can see it still hurts him.
I'm usually irritated when people say someone is underrated because most of the time, the person is NOT underrated and is widely regarded as a great player. But Charles Barkley really is underrated.
Charles was a dynamic basketball player, if his team was as stacked as Mikes he could have took a championship from MJ.
Players who were all-stars at some career point on those Suns... Barkley, KJ, Majerle, Chambers, Ceballos. And they had Ainge and Richard Dumas on top of that. They were deeper than the Bulls.
"Charles was a dynamic basketball player, if his team was as stacked as Mikes he could have took a championship from MJ." Because the teammates would have _liked_ Charles. Mike, e.g., didn't speak to Rodman because he didn't feel like it. For years, unless it was basketball strategy that occurred to Mike. Rodman was a guy who happened to be so sensitive that that was bad for the Bulls, but Mike was more about Mike than he was about the Bulls.
@Mari Jata "Hakeem" Let's be blunt, we (black and white) aren't as into foreigners as we're into Americans, and that sometimes shows, even when it's just subconscious.
You’re smoking bonk. Those Suns were loaded. They beat the Lakers twice in the 80s to get to the WCF. Charles was still in Philly at the time.
What are you talking about the Phoenix Suns Were totally stacked, They just did not have Michael Jordan's Walked Jordan's want was higher than anybody else's to be the best at everything he just wanted to win His competitiveness how did everyone we're talking about the goat
Charles Barkley was a beast! So underrated.
I was rooting Bulls that series vs Suns. Every time that Sir Charles had the ball I would gasp! That year Charles lifted his game to a whole new level! Had the Suns beaten the Bulls no NBA fan would have been shocked. Sir Charles 100% deserved the MVP that year!
Chuck and Jordan are good friends off the camera. Appreciate Charles having his say.
Chuck didn’t want to be a role model back in the day lol but he’s loved by just about every basketball fan. This interview shows why
MJ: "Barkley talked on the ESPN and I took that personal"
What I learnt from The Last Dance....1. The word three-peat 2. MJ being present, one of his greatest attributes 3. MJ’s relentlessness 4. Pippen Baritone’s voice.
As a Spurs fan I remember 1993 West Semi Finals game 6 Charles Barkley making the last shot at the Hemisfair Arena against David Robinson. That one really stung.
MJ will forever hate Isiah, but Chuck was his brother. Both of them need to reconcile.
Chuck was his brother until he said Mike is a bad executive.
@@usmanqureshi8941 He wasn't wrong, Charles is real, he isn't a yes man.
isiah bought a product with obvious consequences and then pretended nobody would ever hold it against him when they had to ball and box vs the pistons. he might not deserve as much hate as laimbeer and rodman but the "who me? that's just how the game was played" routine is for suckers. at least laimbeer and rodman understand they can't have it both ways.
@@robgeach8105 So wait, everyone complains about the game being soft today because of no physicality, but Isiah is hated because his team used to be physical? Makes no sense
Usman Qureshi It’s possible that their are 2 different generations talking glorious of how their era was the best, the 80s and 90s generation
It's great to hear Charles Barkley making sense for 5 minutes straight.
Chuck's really smart. Smarter than you judging from this comment.
I cried when we lost that game 😭
tell it how it is Charles always tells it how it Straight from the heart
I was 6 when this series happened, but this series really sticks out in my mind more than just about every series. But for some reason that Bulls vs Sonics finals is the most memorable finals for me. I think because Sonic the hedgehog was so big at that time Lol.
Chuck only disadvantage is that he had a bad luck, the luck that got him in the league in the same time as Michael Jordan
Talking negative about Black woman was on his list
Facts
And a bad back...
Charles always keeps it real. And yes he deserved MVP in 93. He also played awesome on the dream team in the 92 olympics. He was the real deal, and was an undersized power forward in an era where there were many bigs at the center and power forward positions.
one thing about Charles is he is completely, utterly and frankly ALWAYS honest
