Well of course there has been plenty of terrible NBA players on the defensive end, but one really stood out because he was really good at just about everything else. I'm speaking of Charles Barkley. He was a terrific scorer,a incredible rebounder for his size,and a good passer. Who knows maybe Charles Barkley would of retired with at least one championship if he was a better defender. He shoot a really high percentage from the field compared to other players. It makes you wonder if Barkley might as well had not been standing in front of the person he was defending due to how bad of a defensive player he was,lol.

Barkley was not that bad.. He would have never made the All-Star teams with horrible defense... He was not an offensive juggernaut either.. He is about as equal today as somebody like Chris Bosh...

I can't agree with you .as you said ,charles was a incredible rebounder on the court,on which most of players were much higher than him .according to this ,we can conclude that Charles is not a bad defender .His rebounds showed his defensive mind .
