Barkley was a great point guard for us. He had everyone involved all the time. The true sign of a great one. It would have been special to see him for a full 4 seasons like Mullin. College basketball is a guards game, in particular, point guard. Its no mistake that the lack of an outstanding point guard has coinsided with program's downward spiral.
Watching Barkley take it to those Uconn teams and kick El-Amin's chubby behind all over the court was a magic time to be in Garden. Waiting for the return of that.
