Charles Barkley has said many times that McHale was the greatest player he

ever played against. I'm shocked at how little respect McHale is getting. He is in the top 50 of NBA players of all time when they made that list in '97. Arguably one of the best low post moves guy the NBA ever saw. You don't think McHale could've put on 15 pounds if he needed to? If that's your knock on him? Watch these moves...the fundamentals are incredible, the soft hands unreal.

Kinda hard to argue that one

Some argue Danny Ainge was the greatest.

Yes, I love Jimmer, but Ainge was on another level. Not as a pure scorer, but

I don't think even Danny would make today's nba

I think he would. Ainge was bigger, faster, stronger, more aggressive, and

There is an age gap here on CB. Very few on here can actually lay claim to

Baseball? That's what we're using for athletic standards now? Interesting.

7/23/17 10:38pm

You don't consider that applicable? Yet he's one of only two players since

He was also one of the few people to ever be All American in three sports.

Well, I think Jim Thorpe was an even better athlete. Are you even old enough to

7/23/17 11:04pm

No, I'm not, so I wouldn't even comment. I'd leave it to those that watched him

Let's just agree that Jim Thorpe was the greatest athlete and call it a night.

7/23/17 11:25pm

Deal. Although he wouldn't make today's NBA.

Cougarfan777

7/23/17 11:36pm

He hates today's NBA.

7/23/17 11:38pm

Please. Ainge was a major contributor on some of the best Celtic teams ever.

Cougarfan777

7/23/17 10:31pm

And most of those guys wouldn't play in today's NBA either

Please stop. Don't make me name them. Okay I will. McHale? DJ? Parish? Um...

Mchale weighed 210 pounds, at PF he would get thrown around, that's 15 pounds

Nice video. Vs Jabbar, Willis, Sampson, Ewing, Rollins, Laimbeer, Wilkins, etc

His playing weight later was 225. With his 8' wingspan, he'd be fine.

1986 players were 3.5 lbs lighter, but 0.6" taller on average vs 2015.
