I mostly remember "old" Barkley, so I'll take your point into consideration. My reasoning with Barkley is that he didn't consistently give great defensive effort and he took lots of long inefficient jump shots, in addition to often being out of shape.

Westbrook is one of my favorite players to watch, so this isn't an "I don't like this guy" list. I just don't think it's easy to build a title contender around these guys, despite their tremendous talent.

I'm actually thinking that I'd like to replace Barkley with Doncic, but Doncic deserves a bit more time to prove me wrong.
