    I think that if anyone really wants to find an answer to this question, you should run up 90 flights of stairs as fast as you can to the roof of a building. Then, spin around in a circle 50 times. Then stand on the ledge. Then, try not to fall. If you fall, it proves you ask the wrong questions and that you are not very smart.

    -One of the only three players ever to have a QUADRUPLLE DOUBLE. actually twice but NBA took one away.
    - the only player ever to have won the defensive player of the year, MVP, and playoffs MVP in the same year.
    Still one of the best centers in the league ( just getting the raw deal from the organization and SOME of the fans)


    ------------------
    HAKEEM... the best ever!

    Hakeem oughtta be remembered first, even if Barkley was the better player. Hakeem played here his whole career-not two other teams before us. Ironically, he almost got traded to Philadelphia (Barkley's first team) from what I've read and heard. But still, that's like asking who will be remembered first-Elvin Hayes or Mike Dunleavly.

    Hakeem and Charles are both great players . But will you remember Dream's Brilliant play or Barkley's off the court antics? Chuck had the better personality . Dream the best game

    Ummmm. I was under the assumption only one other player has pulled the Quadruple-double. Oscar Robertson. 1 time.

    Nope,... I think David Robinson accomplished this. Oh, but do you remember that time that Clyde was 1 assist short of getting his? I can't think of the other (4th) player that accomplished this feat.

    I put this sig. here by editing my post. =) how do you do you guys do it?

    Dreamshake --

    Hakeem, David, Nate Thurmond (courtesy of Clutch in a previous thread), and Alvin Robertson.
