Nah, his best years were in Philly. In Phoenix, he was way smarter, of course. But at least physically, he was already on the back end of his career, even in Phoenix.
Yes agreed. Tail end of philly and his phoenix days were his peak. Those years, he took care of his body. When he joined the rockets, his health declined. Dude picked up some weight from eating all that churros wit those big ass women down in san antonio🤣😭💀

So many levels of basketball to be appreciated here. Refs and commentators know there's a game within a game- they know there's going to be friendly back and forth (because it's WCF). All in all, today's NBA makes me appreciate 90's NBA that much more. Glad to have watched it in person.
Malone once said, 'I never want to be like Michael, Magic or Barkley. I just want to be Karl' The Mailman did it in his own way whether he was winning or losing.
Charles telling the two time champs - who knocked him out the playoffs both times - to play with a sense of urgency. I always felt like if they had just kept Horry and Cassel they would have beaten this Jazz team and gone back to the Finals.
A Daaamn shame Chuck has no ring, he wasn’t the biggest or most athletic, but he took nobodies bullshit and put it back in their faces, i miss the 90s NBA, todays game is so soft its hilarious
back in the those bodybuilders nba bigs barely could dribble the ball and was way worse jumpshooters.Bunch of Kevon Looneys and Aytons one sided style in big positions,but no Durant,Lebron,Davis,Jokic,Nowitzky types big that can kills teams from everywhere not just in bruisers style
@@shadowfighter298 that comment is laughable, did you watch the 90’s NBA? Dominique Wilkins, Scottie Pippen, Sean Kemp, Larry Johnson, Larry Bird, Dan Majerle, Jerome Kersey etc all big men that had skills everywhere and athleticism to play any position. The difference to now is in the modern NBA there is only 1 style of playing and everyone tries to play it. The older NBA was much more dynamic, tactical and physical. It was a harder game end to end, the players now would break to pieces in the older game.
malone was better than barkley i would say around 95 and forward. practically same age, but barkley retired in 99 while maloney in 04....malone was better conditioned. his work ethic was the reason the jazz were in the finals in 97 & 98 against jordan, while his competition watching at home.
Thats how it should be !! Im sick of all this hugging and kissing and handshakes now a days. U are here to cement your legacy, not hold a popularity contest
Malone, para mi el mejor 4 q ha existido...Mala suerte en no haber conseguido ni un anillo y perder aquel famososo balón contra MJ en las finales contra Chicago....
Chuck and Malone had immense respect for one another. They were both wary of the other one drawing fouls because they knew when it came down to it theyre the strongest of the strong.
If Barkley had Stockton his entire career...his numbers would have been mind blowing and he would have won a championship. Barkley over scumbag malone all day.
Barkleys peak> Malones peak, what you mean better at everything like what, I will give you he was a marginally better defender. Barkley was a superior player, Malone was more durable.
@@deni8814 Malone was better scorer, shooter, passer and defender. Malone peak he was 31-11. Barkley? Malone had Stockton. Barkley had 3 HoFs in Philly (only Dr was past prime), 3 all stars in Phoenix, 2 HoFs in Houston and still couldnt deliver. Barkley was just more fun to watch. Malone was the only one who made all nba for an entire decade in 90s. Just Kobe and Duncan did that in 00s. Malone skill wise was better than most pfs.
@@mr.e347 tripping to break it down as if Barkley skills isn't a factor. Malone is fortunate Barkley 6'5 and not 6'9. It would easily be a different story. Barkley way better than Malone too. Suns Barkley you ain't touching and when you speak about his game you speak about his suns days. When he went up against Jordan
@@coachbighead "Barkleys Suns" were a 55 win team without him a season before when they made Conf Finals. And also the team who blew a 3-1 lead when matter the most. But sure, again fun to watch.
I loved Malone in that series. Houston ruined the Jazz play off runs many times before this series. I think it was before game 1 Malone was shown riding into the stadium on his motor cycle and just looked so bad ass. You could feel something in the air with that shot of him. Right away in game 1 the Mailman was playing so intense and in the faces of Barkley, Hakeem, and the other Houston bigs. Just going at them, not backing down, super physical. I said to my girlfriend "This is different, Karl's had enough being bullied by this team, they are winning this series." Such a great era, Stockton and Malone my fav players of all time, and was addicted to the Jazz from 88-02. Gosh I miss them.. sigh. NBA just means nothing to me these days.
Watching them talk about getting to the finals at the other’s expense is like watching two wrestlers talk about fighting for a world title opportunity at wrestlemania
1997 was last year Barkley was still Barkley. Peak Barkley was slightly better than peak Malone in my eyes. But bodybuilder Malone had like 5 extra good years compare to donut eater Charles.Both didnt care if they hurt opponents physically if he they were in their way
Love Bill Walton's comment "that's just cheek to cheek ballroom dancing." lol. One of the things I hate about the NBA is it's so obvious when the league wants a certain team to win and you can see it so clearly in the way the refs are calling the game. At least back then the announcers would call it out that something was a clear foul or flop. Soon after that it was obvious that the announcers would get the word to go along with it and would either not talk about something again or show the replay about 20 times to point something out. And if a player or coach tried to point this out they'd get fined.
Being a native Utahn and Jazz fan since I was conscious of basketball in the late 80's I relish the physicality and play of the NBA of yore. Today's league is so flaccid by comparison. It's really sad how lame it is now. Virtually NO posting up in the paint. Almost no real power forwards. I doubt if anyone in the NBA today dedicates as much time in the weight room as Malone did. Fast-break 3 pointers are so boring compared to drives and dunks of the greatest NBA era.
WOW MR KARL MALONE BARCLEY CAN'T GET AWAY WITH TROUBLE WITH A BEAST LIKE MALONE BARCLEY WAS A BAD TROUBLE PLAYER I NEVER LIKE HIM LIKE A PLAYER I THINK HE COST THE CHAMPIONSHIP FOR THE ROCKET AND THE SIXERS TOO MUCH TROUBLE AT THE COURT BUT MALONE WAS THE MAIL MAN HE WAS THE MAN WHO'S STOP BARCLEY MALONE .MUCH BETTER PLAYER THAN CHARLES BY A MILE
