Chuck or Blake...I know Blake is just starting out but is he better than Chuck was...and will he be as effective as Chuck was.

I'd take Barkley

Barkley was one of the top Power Forwards of all time, and i'm amazed he was able to dominate while giving up 5-6 inches every night. CB for right now

Blake Griffin had knee surgery that forced him to miss his enitre rookie year. The way he plays....i'll hold off judgement until he plays a few season's injury free. It's no secret that leg injuries to bigs tend to be lingering...

I'm going to make a slight adjustment to my initial thoughts....Blake's a bad Man...even in Barkley's prime...Griffen might take him to school...be fun to watch :D

you know its a crying shame when a player has to grab someones arm so he cant go baseline and jam...I have seen so many players at every level of Basketball who are hugely envious of the guy who can jump...Jumping in the game of Bball is the most envied skill there is, (I didnt say the most important)...Why, because so many cant...take a jumper who realizes the other skills are important also and he becomes the best of all time...Oh yea, Jordan thought of that a while ago :wink:
