I loved Chuck when he was playing... I kinda wish he hadn't had to retire because of a blown-out knee... I also think he shouldnt've been traded to Houston, it's too bad he didn't end his career as a Sun... They always listed him at 6'6, which was nonsense... He was about 6'4 or so, and a helluva player... As he got older, his all around game progressed, including the range from where he could shoot... It's too bad that he never won a Championship... If Michael Jordan had never been born, I believe that the Suns would've won the Championship in 1993, without a fu*kin' doubt. Regardless of all that, I'm glad he made the Hall of Fame and is still involved with the NBA on TNT.EDIT: The "Peach Basket" is a horrible name for a forum.

He's such a monster on the boards despite his 6'4 frame.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>EDIT: The "Peach Basket" is a horrible name for a forum. </div>Do you understand why?
Yes I do, I just think it's lame. (Naismith and others used a peach basket for a hoop back in the day)
I like the name. Also, Charles Barkley is one of my favorite players all time. He was a monster on the boards considering his size and has a great personality. He is also probably my favorite broadcaster.
Barkley was a badass, its amazing what he did concidering his size. 6'6 was very generous to list him at. It's sad that he didnt win a title, he did a lot to try to win one as well, including taking a huge paycut so the Rockets could sign Scottie Pippen.
