I just spent quite a bit of time recording and editing albums during the last month and a half of the season and put on Game Pass a lot for something to watch. He made a lot of nice reads with strong throws in some tight windows with a pretty decimated lineup. I thought he ran a bit more than he should have but after coming back from his injury, he didn't seem to panic too much for a rookie.
Barkley was a Beast. Too many people use rings as a measuring stick. I was sad when he left the Sixers but I understood why.
Even bad QBs make good throws though. Dalton (who wasn't bad) had enough great throws in 2015 alone that if you made a mixtape with them, you'd think he was Aaron "spend all the cap on me I don't care about winning just my ego" Rodgers.
Alright I've said my piece.
After Dr J and Moses Malone left, the Sixers never did a good enough job putting talent around Chuck. I'll probably catch flack for saying this, but I feel like Barkley at his peak was on par with LeBron James as a player, although I rank Bron higher on my all-time list due to his incredible longevity.
Also, I don't have Bron as high up as most people do. He's 8th on my all-time list. I ping him for his method of winning rings, which is to bleed teams dry of assets, then leave when things go south and bleed a new team of their assets.
I also ping him for often quitting ON the court when things go south, avoiding clutch shots in big games, taking defense off, etc.
