Dude was great on the court and even greater off the court.

 

 

had 33 rebounds in one game.

 

 

and had some of the best one liners of all time.

 

 

"I can be bought. If they paid me enough, I'd work for the klan."

 

 

“I don't know anything about Angola, but I know they' re in trouble.”

 

 

Here are some more.

Just prior to the opener of the 1997-98 season, Houston Rockets forward Charles Barkley was at a bar in Orlando when a 20-year-old man threw a cup of ice at him. Barkley responded by throwing said man out of a plate glass window. Charles stood in front of the judge.

 

Judge: “Your sanctions are community service and a fine, do you have any regrets?”

Charles: “Yeah I regret we weren’t on a higher floor.”

This is it, it’s sad that being real and genuine is so rare that when someone is honest it’s a shock.

It boggles my mind that such an elite athlete can suck so bad at another sport.

[tanatastic 2,061]

Holy crap how can his swing be that bad? Tell me he doesn’t do that stutter every time. Tell me that’s just the extra bad ones and he knows that follow through is infinitely better.

He does. EVERY time. His practice swings and driving range are okay.

 

Once he steps over the ball, for real. The hitch happens. 100% mental. Hank Haney couldn't even fix him

 

It's actually sad.

 

Dude just wants to have fun and golf, he is mostly retired.
