I never said Chuck was great or anything. Just that he could shoot, much like Green can. I would say though that Barkley's midrange game was miles ahead of Green

I don't need a mid-range game. Overrated.

Barkley's best year was 33%, Green's is 39%. They're not that comparable, shooting wide.

Lol, no. He was a SF not a PF. So that fact is incorrect.

He was widely considered an elite shooter. He was often referred to as having the smoothest shot ever seen in the NBA. Not sure where you pulled that one from. He didnt really shoot the three much but that doesnt mean he wasnt a great shooter. He was a deadly mid range shooter. One of the best scoring players ever.

He was the scoring leader in the NBA 2 season in a row and scored more than 30 points per game 4 seasons in a row on extremely efficient numbers. He set the NBA record for least shot attempts to average more than 30 points per game.

In those playoffs he averaged more than 30 points per game on better than 50% shooting and also reeled in 7.5 rebounds and dished out 4.2 assists per game.

He lead the Utah Jazz to their first ever NBA playoffs and won some series for them. He was also a key member on some of the bad boy Detroit teams late in his career.

Im not sure what else you could ask for out of a 6th man. An athletic elite scorer who was a great shooter and could run plays through since he could also set up teammates.

He was criticized early with the Jazz for being selfish and not playing defense but he turned that around and turned the Jazz franchise around.

Most of his offense came from the paint, and mostly shot wide open spot up jumpers. His shot was very slow. He needed time to get his shot off from outside 15 feet and didn't shoot threes

Damn you're a fidgety little thing. All I said was he could shoot. I didn't say he was great good or anything just that he could shoot and had to be somewhat respected because he COULD shoot and an all time great player who had a rep for hitting big shots.

I just don't really think he could. Career 26 or 28% shooter. I'd let him fire away.

Thank god we aren't going by career. Good for me his best year was 33% not good but not terrible. Barkley was the kind of player that could get hot from three and was never a good idea to ignore him, as I said, he's one of the all time greats and hit a ton of clutch shot. His fair share being from deep.

Great news!

Draymond Green is now an above-average shooter! I like your logic ;)

Also, make sure to remember that for Barkley you are using the 1994-1995 season.
 
I think Drazen was awesome for a season and a good shooter. Wasnt he going back to Europe though when he passed away? I thought he was upset about not getting enough attention and respect in the NBA since he wasnt an all-star.
