He joined the organization for the 1992-93 season and was fresh off a star turn for the "Dream Team" in Barcelona that had his star burning brighter than ever. Never one to shy away from controversy, Barkley continually backed it up with his dominant performances on the court.
This isn't a case of simply saying "you just had to be there" with Barkley - but really if Stoudemire is hard to compare somebody to in today's game - where do you start with Barkley?
