He called Adam Silver amazing then proceeded to list off all the things wrong with the NBA which has resulted in the ratings being terrible. Adam Silver is responsible for all the problems with the league. He has let players do whatever they want with no accountability.
We all know Jordan was the greatest player, but Charles unequivocally deserved that 92-93 MVP award for that season. His team finished with the best record in the league and what most people forget is that he played 33 of his 76 games without his best teammate Kevin Johnson.
Barkley was playing out of his mind both in the '92 Olympics and the entire '93 season. Non-stop beast mode. But also, he's right he should have gotten MVP in '89. Magic won only because certain people of the media didn't like Chuck's attitude (which is why they left him off their ballots entirely).
@@JakeStine Jordan won the MVP in 88. I’m 99% sure he’s talking about the 89-90 season., when Chuck was probably at the absolute peak of his playing ability. Magic won the MVP that year, probably because it was their first year without Kareem and they finished with the best record in the league that year. Chuck, however, led the 76ers to 53 wins with literally no other star on the team. He was actually a better individual player that season than he was in 93, but he had better players around him on the 93 Suns.
I know he don't care what I think. But I didn't like Charles Barkley when he was in the league playing. And I was a 80 to 85 76er fan. But listening to him the last 10 years on these talk shows. He's class. Same type of upbringing as me. And he hasn't forgotten it. Amen Charles.
@@chucknola484 Very true, but the Celtics tied the record for most 3's in one regular season game on the 1st game of the 2024 season. Now its actually a negative topic instead of a positive point of emphasis ( e..g Golden State's success).
I love Chuck's honesty but if your whole weekend is about gambling I think that's kind of fricked up. But is what it is. He's still a good guy and his honesty is something we need more of.
Ive grown to really admire Charles. I watched him at Auburn and never really paid attention to how great of mentor to young folks that he is. We need more like him
Glad to hear Charles giving props to Hutch. Even better since poor, bitter, jealous Michigan State fans were flooding social media with the vitriol that the Lions wasted, they literally said the Lions "wasted", that pick. The kid who was born and raised in Detroit, went to Michigan, became an AA, and then got picked by his hometown pro team is a wasted pick. This is why sparty can't have nice things. They wanted so much for Hutch to fail they couldn't contain themselves.
I am glad Dan is starting to realize the NBA hasn't been fun to watch lately. The MLB Postseason blew by the NBA Playoff ratings, and rightfully so. MLB has been correcting their issues. NBA is doubling down on three point shootfest, constant blowouts, and starters not wanting to play until April. And the NBA is abandoning TNT which is better than the Mothership. Especially with their pre-game/talk show. That said, I always enjoy Wilbon on ESPN.
No, get rid of the 3 second count in the lane, paint an area adjacent to the 3 pt line, and have a violation for anyone standing in that area w/o the ball for 3 seconds.
Dan Patrick shutup about giving incentives to NBA players for doing their jobs! Any NBA player who isn't certified as injured by a medical doctor should be playing in every game, period. If they refuse to play when not injured then the NBA should fine them $1 million for every game they miss. Each million then goes directly to a local food bank in the city where the team is located. I bet you players would be doing their jobs if they were at risk of lossing their money. No incentives, it's time for penalties.
20:48 DP nailed it. Charles was totally in mid-season form. He's a pro so he's always going give Dan a good segment. Like when pros went on Letterman they were ready to go from the jump. But sometimes Charles isn't focused and falls back on his stump bits. Not today. Great segment
i began playing when I was 5, played throughout my life until I got too old, watching the game constantly. Huge fan through Bird/Magic, then Michael.... I stopped watching 6-8 years ago because of the 3-pointer problem. It is tedious crap to watch a 3-point shooting contest. Boah-ring. That and the lack of defense. I watched 2 NBA games all the way through last season....no longer care about basketball. once was the most creative sport out there - now dumbed down. wake me when it's over
I don’t know why players statistics aren’t brought up when it comes to all these star players refusing to play in more games but less minutes. Guys like Embiid care much more about averaging 30 pts and over 10 rebounds than respecting Sixers’ fans & helping his team win.
Lebron kind of invented load managing during the game, lol. He takes time off during plays for years now, specially on defense. He knows how to conservate his body for the long run as we all can witness since he will turn 40 in two months. Which is really insane on this level..
Man we’re talking about sorry ass, overpaid bums not living up to their responsibilities here. Not someone keeping something in the tank for the 4th quarter because he will probably have to put the team on his back at that point.
"I should have won the MVP in 1988" - Michael Jordan led the league in scoring 35ppg, went to the Eastern Semis, led the league in steals (3.2)and averaged 2 blocks per game,and won DPOY... As a guard! 😂
He's referring to he 1990 season when it was extremely close between him and Earvin Johnson. He just got the year wrong. No big deal. He also said it was the closest race in NBA history and he might be right about that.
The NBA is losing fans quickly. Count me among them. I do not watch or follow the NBA anymore, an unwatchable product, full of prima donnas. I used to follow the entire season faithfully. Could care less now. I find it liberating. The NFL is threatening to ruin their product also with all the flags and the obviously rigged BS( all sports are rigged but they used to be subtle about it) because of gambling.
3-point line is a fixable problem that will eventually need to be addressed. The math is undeniable and shooter’s are only going to continue getting better. They need a solution that encourages only the best shooters to take the shot, and not literally every player in the NBA. I’m not sure rest/load management is fixable; as much as we’d like it to be.
The market will win out in the end. Ratings are way down, attendance is down, eventually the he money that’s there now will dry up. The NBA in its current form is an inferior product.
Ford Exkadition! Love Sir Charles man. Always have, back to when he first came into the league. "No more than four games in a week."Don't believe him Chuck, DP is straight villainous!
The teams have to give them less and risk losing them to another team. The Clippers somewhat did it with PG, and so PG went to Sixers. CBA with the stiffer tax apron and awards requiring 65 game played has been very good as well.
Maybe we should rethink the assumption that the game is more physical. When I watch games from the 90s, I get the opposite impression. Maybe it was more physical in the narrow sense that there were more flagrant fouls that were called common fouls, but that's not the kind of physicality that causes wear and tear injuries to knee ligaments and Achilles tendons. It's the more abrupt changes of direction, the Eurosteps, the deceleration, etc., that's causing injuries and necessitating load management.
At least Embiid has a history he can point to showing he can't hold up. Most of these players don't have that evidence. Baseball players get later in the career and don't play day games after night games. Load management is fine, it just needs to be done differently.
NBA ratings from 1998 are down 70%, if it wasn't for the 5 Billion a year they get from China, the highest paid player would only make 15 Mil per year:)
Incentivize players to play? Dan you’re tripping. These players already make a lot of money to play. If anything, their contracts should have a clause stating we will pay you this much IF you play minimum Xminutes in 82 games (sans injuries). 80s & 90s, when a game is obviously gonna be won, the coach will sit star players to rest, they don’t stay in the game to pad their stats.. But, if the opponents are showing a come back, coach will put the star players back to ensure a win.
Bricking 3's. Carry the ball when they go left - because they can't dribble. Moving screens. Constant traveling. No boxing out - truly none. Very low effort defense. Not just lazy - but low skill players. Truth be told, there were a lot of low skill players in the 80's. But from 1988-2008 players were skilled on both ends of the court
The star player will never say ill play 25 mins they don't want their averages to go down so they would rather sit out all these guys that say all they care about is winning watch how many of them refuse to shoot at the buzzer in the 1st 3 quarters bcuz they don't wanna mess up their shooting percentage
Unless I’m betting on the game I have no desire to spend 3 hours watching any sporting event. Highlights are always on RUclips anyway. Better things to do with your time.
Charles is authentic. Not afraid to say what he thinks. Salute
Hard on them dudes 🫡
He called Adam Silver amazing then proceeded to list off all the things wrong with the NBA which has resulted in the ratings being terrible. Adam Silver is responsible for all the problems with the league. He has let players do whatever they want with no accountability.
Adam silver is the step-dad david stern was the father
And then there’s the most calculated, narcissistic media-manufactured fake goat in sports history, LeBron James.
he really isnt authentic... its just what he wants you to think.
Charles Barkley is my favorite guest on whatever show he appears
Go Buckeyes!!!!!!!!
I like Chuck but my favorite guest in this show is Ross Tucker
Always a treat when these two get together
These interviews are priceless!

Blah blah blah
I agree. He was the best that year.

He was talking about soul food, as in “you need a lot of work and spices and live to make the cheap ingredients into good food”
What does you being a sixers fan in 1980 have to do with you not liking barkley?
i met him here in phoenix at the casino......super nice guy.
@16:00 love when Charles passively refutes Dan’s sports theory. Dan think Jordan should have won every award every year.
There’s nothing passive about Chuck 😂 He probably either didn’t know or he forgot that that was Dan’s view on his MVP vote.
2024 fast break in the NBA. One man dribbles the ball past the half-court line and the other 3 guys all scatter toward the 3 pt line.
2024? This has been the case for at least the last 5 years.
@@chucknola484 Very true, but the Celtics tied the record for most 3's in one regular season game on the 1st game of the 2024 season. Now its actually a negative topic instead of a positive point of emphasis ( e..g Golden State's success).
It’s so crazy!
@@chucknola484 It goes back further than that.
Adam Silver is not amazing. He's the reason the league is the way it is
His cons outweigh his pros
by a large margin.
Silver works as a scapegoat for the owners. Blame the owners, my guy.
@@mortaak181Every commissioner in every sports league work for the owners.
Silver is not as revered as david silver.
Couldn’t agree more…long live David stern. That era will never be matched. Silver is a joke
I love Chuck's honesty but if your whole weekend is about gambling I think that's kind of fricked up. But is what it is. He's still a good guy and his honesty is something we need more of.
What else is he going to do with all that money? Charity?
Please tell me what a good weekend consists of…?
@@Logholders for me, exercising, hikes, time with family and or friends.
His money can afford it, y can't he gamble on weekends lol.
@@rdubb77 exercising and hiking is kryptonite to 60 sumthin y.o. Barkley. He better enjoy gambling 2 days a week

chuck you're killin' us with grandma mabel's glasses
THIS IS WHY CHARLES NEEDS TO STAY ON THE NBA BROADCAST. HE'S THE ONLY PERSON THAT WILL HOLD PLAYERS ACCOUNTABLE 🤷🏿♂️
14:33 Haha I bet Chuck was not gonna mention Skip for the first time, but of course Danny had to bring him up! 😂😂😂
Chuck actually said he felt bad for Skip ? What!?! That's some full circle shit right there
Underrated as a player in today's conversation.He was arguably the best power forward in the game.
Old Man Chuck is the truth we all need. Carlin vibes…..Zero eggs given❤😂
Lakers fan from the early 80's on. But man I was so rooting for Barkley and the Suns in the 90s. So wanted him to get a ring.
Dwayne wade statue with Antoine walkers Head. 😅
If you are making that kind of money you should never say I am not playing.
I’m over the nba, it’s so soft and boring. Just shoot 3’s and no inside game.
Chuckster is right. Load Management: pay NBA revenue to see Joel Embiid make...salary depend on actual play.
Charles is a great interview. And with the Insiders, too.
CHARLES IS FUNNY AF BUT HONEST AF😂😂😂😂😂
what makes it bad u have the oldest player in the league playing more games than most players
Because he is statpadding and he’s a cone on defense.
@@Marlowe10100Most people are cones.. in a 3 point contest what's the point
Wish I was incentivized for showing up to work.
Barkley is a hall of famer on and off the court!

You do both , they don't have a option of not playing and move the 3 point line back further !

What a refreshing new guest from Ol Dem dan.
Dan laughing when Charles brings up ESPN makes me laugh everytime lol
The great Charles Barkley!!
CHARLES BARKLEY SO GREAT ON DAN PATRICK SHOW FULL INTERVIEW - ON NOVEMBER 1, 2024 !!!!
Sir Charles it was 89/90 season you had 38 first votes, Magic 27 and you finished 2nd. 616 vs 634 points
That was because many media members did not like him.
What do you mean TELL the coach, you get paid to play! Why are the players telling the coach anything?!😮
That’s awwwwuuuuffffuuullll, man…
17:33 “YES!!” “HELL yes!” The man ain’t subtle 😃

The steroids help out lebron as well
I love the linkd in reference.
3 point line is ruining the game. Shooting 60 3s a game is boring as hell. Either limit the number they can shoot or ditch the 3 point line.
Wait till the 4 point line comes 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
From what my manager at work (who played division 2 in college) says these players are over training, that's why they're injured so much.
It's amazing that players during the 20th century played more games than players in the 21st century.
My apologies to Charles. Your girl Kamala took a BEAT DOWN 😂😂
Sir Charles boss man!
Simple solution 😮
=> FANS do not go to the games and waste your money 😢
Let the stadiums 🏟 be empty😅
If you don't enjoy Deez 2 gentlemen . Check your self! Real talk.
14:51 "I'm watching all these idiots, fools and jackasses on ESPN."
Correct, Sir Charles.
Quite correct.

Correction: The year that Magic Johnson edged out Charles for the NBA League MVP, was 1990, and not 1988. Michael Jordan won the MVP in 1988.
3-point line is a fixable problem that will eventually need to be addressed. The math is undeniable and shooter’s are only going to continue getting better. They need a solution that encourages only the best shooters to take the shot, and not literally every player in the NBA.
I’m not sure rest/load management is fixable; as much as we’d like it to be.
There were years LeBron had the best year and still didn't win it
If you wanna reduce 3's, I guess you could just make the rim smaller and/or make the court wider with a longer 3pt line
No one should have to say, "I'm gonna play all 82 games this season". Bro, you get paid to play ball.
Todays NBA is just awful. It’s boring. It’s BS. If it wasn’t for its appeal outside the US I think the league would be on its ass.
Adam silver ruined the league I loved & grew up on. I no longer watch.
love chuck
It's not his final year.. it might not be the same as we know it but he will still be around doing basketball analysis. Count on it
“You can’t have money 💰 if you spend on stupid stuff…. I like to Gamble “ 🤔

You're thinking of 89-90 Barkley. You got 38 first place votes and he got 27, Jordan got 21.

How can you not like Chuck 😂
The only player to x player that tells it like it is he's a gift to this country and the sport go get them check
At least Embiid has a history he can point to showing he can't hold up. Most of these players don't have that evidence. Baseball players get later in the career and don't play day games after night games. Load management is fine, it just needs to be done differently.
If players not playing is the dominant narrative of your league, I think your league is in trouble.
Do you have anything...exotic?
I got money for a reason. I'm not stupuid (Wise words)
Proceeds to talk about gambling lol
NBA ratings from 1998 are down 70%, if it wasn't for the 5 Billion a year they get from China, the highest paid player would only make 15 Mil per year:)

lol, you fire them! Derp
Chuck 👍👍🏀 💯
LeBron saying he wants to play 82 games. Sure, he doesn’t play both ends more than 30-40 seconds a game.
Bricking 3's. Carry the ball when they go left - because they can't dribble. Moving screens. Constant traveling. No boxing out - truly none. Very low effort defense. Not just lazy - but low skill players. Truth be told, there were a lot of low skill players in the 80's. But from 1988-2008 players were skilled on both ends of the court
Basketball died when Kobe died.
The star player will never say ill play 25 mins they don't want their averages to go down so they would rather sit out all these guys that say all they care about is winning watch how many of them refuse to shoot at the buzzer in the 1st 3 quarters bcuz they don't wanna mess up their shooting percentage
I hope the Heat fix that statue.
Here's the problem. How do you tell your boss "i aint working today"?
Unless I’m betting on the game I have no desire to spend 3 hours watching any sporting event. Highlights are always on RUclips anyway. Better things to do with your time.
Just divide salary into 82 and pay accordingly unless a serious injury
