A fun blast from the past. I didn't start watching basketball until a few years after this, so it was new to me. It's quite a reminder of just how stupidly dominant Jordan was.

I forgot how good Barkley was too.

Same draft class 1984

And Stockton, and Hakeem. By far the best draft class ever

Sam Bowie

He missed 2 years in college, Kentucky, because of injuries

Yeah, Barkley was pretty much washed up when I started watching basketball. It's fun seeing old clips when he was super athletic.

I remember watching him score 63 points at Boston Garden. Best scoring performance I’ve ever seen

Celtics would go on to win the title in 1986

Didnt they have to move back the freethrow line because of him?
Or made a rule against slam dunking from the freethrow?

That was Wilt.

Oh, different guy.
I remember a picture of Jordan, he was wearing a ring on every finger and smiling.
I bet everyoone has seen that picture.
