    Even Barkley the Rocket was the better player. He had a 30/23 playoff game at age 35.

    Barkley has been to the finals before. Michael stopped him from winning and Dream stopped him in the second round two years afterwards.

    Yes, its the same repeated hidden agenda case study of the board. Even when you say something preceded with "WTF, are you kidding? Its OBVIOUS that ___ is ___", all the person wants to see out of it is the "___ is ___" mentioned to proclaim righteousness.

    I can't believe you compared one of the 50 best players of all time to Amare Stoudamire...

    and in my opinion Amare like many other are partially a product of Steve Nash's abilities

    Barkley woulda whooped LaMarcus Aldridge's ass if he tried to push him like that, while Amare backed up like a p***y!

    For anyone confused as to the purpose of this thread, here's an excerpt from tinman's Shaq vs. Howard thread that would explain it:

    Barkley wasn't much of a defender although at times he used to put in a effort on that end.

    He was multi-dimensional. He could bring the ball up and pass as a point forward,his rebounding was world class and he was fairly good as a clutch shooter. His post up skills were much better than Amare as well. His jumper was at least the equal of Amare's. The only edge that Amare has is in explosiveness and speed. Barkley was no slow poke as a younger player as well.
    He was the MVP of the league and a NBA Finals runner up,there is no comparison between the two of them.
