When you think of Charles career, do you think of him as a Rockets, Suns or 76ers player?
I think I go with Phoenix as he went to the Finals with 'em and won the MVP Award. On the other hand he had his most dynamic years in phily.

Hmm... I probably think Phx 1st, then Philly and Houston a pretty distant last. Although I was pretty young when he played in Philly so that might have something to do with it.

Philly, he was almost a different player in Philly. He started chucking 3's at a higher rate in Phx and got lazy. He seemed to lose some of his athleticism and it started to show in his game.....

Chuck played for Houston? How did I forget that... Anyway, he is a Sun to me. The Philly days are distant memories.

Sixers, although I don't know why. He had the most success, in terms of winning an MVP and reaching the Finals, with the Suns.

Hes definitely a Sun. Going to the NBA finals solidified that position for him. Philly is second for sure, and houston was just sad.

He's a Sun.
That was my second favorite team ever behind the 2000-2002 Kings.

Philly.
Seriously though Barkley himself has mentioned many times he was always be a Sixer 1st. He has mentioned many times the influence Dr. J,Moses Malone,Bobby Jones, Cheeks etc.,, had on his career.
Remember when we drafted him he was a chubby kid who had many people doubt his abilities and said he was undersized. The Sixers believed in him and he turned into a superstar here.
