not a thing anymore. Marv's retired, Gumbal is a shadow of himself calling NFL for CBS, Dick Enberg passed away, Bob Costas left NBC and does Baseball on MLB Network...Tom Hammond I think is the only main PBP guy that did these intros that still works at NBC for a possible NBA on NBC revival and NBC probably just recruits Harlan and Breen if ABC gives it up.
This will sound strange but besides having a 40 inch vertical being 260 lbs that gigantic ass he ass really helped his game immensely. Same with Shaq.. once they got it on you it was over
Definitely! No doubt his devastating injury at the worst possible time no doubt cost the Suns their elusive title that season in 95! That team was stacked when they were at full strength too!
This is the basketball I grew up on. Intense, competitive matchups. Some of the fouls called in this game are easy ejections now. The game has definitely changed.
Like all these other people are saying these are the games. I grew up on great job of condensing the highlights. Another good video. Man you combine all that talent in the 80s and 90s plus the crowd plus the super animated announcers just made for a whole different experience from today’s games
Barkley was injured in game 6 and only played game 7 because it was an elimination game. Had the Suns won, he wouldn't have even been able to play in the next series anyway. He had to have surgery after the series.
@@jason41144 he wouldn't have been injured had Manning been healthy. He was lost halfway through the season and was the main guy off the bench (and also played Barkley's position). He would have let Barkley rest more during the season and taken the scoring pressure off him which would have let him be healthy for the playoffs. Manning with KJ, AC Green and Barkley annihilate Houston and their weak PFs.
I don't think the Suns beat the Spurs I.M.O. But no doubt this was their year if Danny Manning's gimpy knee didn't give out at the very worst possible time!
@redpillfreedom6692 I think he means because Shaq was in early foul trouble by the third quarter and found himself on the bench. If not for Dennis Scott coming up big like he did with 7 threes off the bench this would've been a blowout after Shaq went to the bench.
Please tell me you have the Rockets vs Bulls from the same day with the NBA on NBC extended intro? Or possibly some more games with the extended intro that 1994-95 season? Same with the 1993-94 season?
@@MDBBall That’s fair. How many more NBA on NBC games do you have from the 1993-94 and 1994-95 season with the extended intro and short? Primarily the extended intro. Honorable mentions the 1992-93 and 1996-97 seasons also with the extended intro and possibly the short intro.
Lee I'm not sure exactly how many I have I know I have at least a few. I have to check to see if they have the full intro or no intro or what quality they are in. I will hopefully post them when I get the chance.
What makes you feel like that? Personally, I like the physicality of the era. People hadn't figured out the advantage of the 3 point shot, yet. So, the post game and mid-range were prioritized, defensive schemes were simplified and efforts on both ends of the game were balanced.
@@ejford5083 the thing that I can tell with some confidence is that NOBODY would choose to be playing in a league with a level of physicality similar to that of the bad boys era, or prior eras. This is the thing that has to make anyone realize just how difficult it was to play back then. Then, the officiating. Which is the total opposite of toody's , they allowed so much contact which today would merit a flagrant, and wouldn't hesitate to call you for traveling, or carrying the ball. I do not follow NFL, but just by looking at the kind of violence they used to play with, you can tell it was harder to play before, almost hard to say they're the same sports. It's not exactly the same situation with the NBA, but not that different.
@@matthewd84 I really would like to understand how people looked at the NBA back then, before Jordan. It is hard to understand his impact on the game and just how much above the rest he was viewed by peers and audiences. It seems to be a consensus, among players of that era, on the unprecedented skill-set and competitiveness associated to Jordan (excluding Isaiah and probably some others less outspoken/prominent players). I have to be honest, seeing just how relevant and instrumental Jordan was to the NBA development: popularity, economical and narrative wise, back then. It makes me wonder if you could suspect the same kind of critical avoidance towards him from the rest of the league and press was enforced then, as today's klutch media and bunch are accused of. Probably impossible to answer, since he actually dominated the league for a while. Both, individually and with titles, allowing other players and teams to get the spotlight only before and after he did it. I enjoy watching LBJ play, as the main character or the villain. Just can't back him up as the goat, not in a game where results are so heavily influenced by the few, which separates the bunch from the rest. He has failed too much, relied in too many, and taken too little responsibility of it all. Maybe I will change my mind if something happens or some news are outed, but given allegations and so, it's not looking likely. I like to think that I tried to be receptive and fair about this irrelevant thing, probably wasn't. But I respect the opinions which differ from mine, hopefully we get to witness in the near future the player which makes us agree all about being the goat.
Chuck was such a beast!
I remember this, I watched this game and played NBA Live 95 all day afterwards!!!!
I used to play NBA Live 95 on SNES all the time. It’s one of the best sports games I’ve ever played. Those were the days.
@@rjcupid Me too, on the Sega Genesis, which I still have to this day!
Charles Barkley was extremely talented he could score in a variety of ways.
No matter if Horace Grant was in Chicago Red or Orlando Blue, he still couldn't stop Sir Charles
We need to bring back those NBA on NBC intros and story telling💪🏾

It's coming back soon!
Barkley was so good and freaking athletic and strong!!!💪🏾
This will sound strange but besides having a 40 inch vertical being 260 lbs that gigantic ass he ass really helped his game immensely. Same with Shaq.. once they got it on you it was over
This takes you back to a different kind of energy. Competition was physical and fierce.
When Perry drew that foul, Chuck picked him up off of the floor like he was his son.🎉
this channel is gold !!!! thank you MDBBall !!!!❤☺
👍
Danny Manning was very good and had he not get injured in 95 suns beat Houston
Definitely! No doubt his devastating injury at the worst possible time no doubt cost the Suns their elusive title that season in 95! That team was stacked when they were at full strength too!

Bro !!! This is awesome good times NBA on NBC that intro got you pump to watch the games
👍
You should send this video to TNT for the next time Shaq talks shit about Charles.
Like all these other people are saying these are the games. I grew up on great job of condensing the highlights. Another good video. Man you combine all that talent in the 80s and 90s plus the crowd plus the super animated announcers just made for a whole different experience from today’s games
👍
Cannot believe the Suns didn't win at least 1 championship in those days. They were really good.
This was their year, until Manning's devastating knee injury happened at the very worst possible time!
Good times
4:05 chuck with 6 ft 5"/6"dominant vs shaq 7 ft 1", and horace grant 6 ft 10" , what a player!!
I liked the comment from Chuck at 10:40. I hope he gets hired in NBC now that NBA on TNT is gone.
Thank you bro for all the uploads
👍
I'm so hurt Shaq and Penny couldn't win a ring together. And, for Charles. He fought hard many seasons. Just couldn't get over the hump.
love the channel bro! please keep uploading barkley videos. also young kobe and mj if possible
👍 hopefully more to come!
Good ol days
The ref wore #54 ,calling the foul on Horace Grant, #54. There's no such thing as coincidence!
This could've been the 1995 Finals matchup had Phoenix not choked away that 3-1 lead against Houston.
No guarantee PHX beats the Spurs
@@chrisuncleahmadWho had the best regular season record and leagues MVP at the time in David Robinson.

Looking at that 95' Suns team, they should have won an NBA championship.
They even stronger than 93, but injury bug also around here
amazing，198vs216
I love the NBA ON NBC, do you have any more?
Yep I've got some more!
They hyped Shaq at the beginning, but never saw him on the court.
He's number 32
@redpillfreedom6692 I think he means because Shaq was in early foul trouble by the third quarter and found himself on the bench. If not for Dennis Scott coming up big like he did with 7 threes off the bench this would've been a blowout after Shaq went to the bench.

Can we see this game on EJ Neato this season?
Yes, open your mouth.
Goofie by the refs. Shoulda been a tech on Chuck as well
The more I watch this era it ages worse and worse. Jordan played in the weakest era ever
What makes you feel like that?
Personally, I like the physicality of the era. People hadn't figured out the advantage of the 3 point shot, yet. So, the post game and mid-range were prioritized, defensive schemes were simplified and efforts on both ends of the game were balanced.
The physicality, minutes played, and man defense would wreck today’s players. Playing in today’s times would only benefit Jordan’s era.
@@ejford5083 the thing that I can tell with some confidence is that NOBODY would choose to be playing in a league with a level of physicality similar to that of the bad boys era, or prior eras.
