Barkley talks about putting Kobe & Jordan ahead of LBJ: They will tear you apart and LBJ is a good old man

Recently, Barkley explained in an interview program why he ranked Jordan and Kobe ahead of James in the NBA player history ranking.

Barkley said: "I will put James in the seventh place in history. I once argued with a James fan who claims to be the most fanatical in the world. I said that I didn't put Nash before James, but I put Kobe ahead of James. I have no intention of disrespecting James. I just love James simply."

"But they are not the same in my opinion. Jordan and Kobe will knock you down, and James is a good old man. No one would ever say Kobe or Jordan is a good man. These words I said have never been said, no one would say that Jordan is a good man, and that's the same for Kobe. There is nothing wrong with that, but James is indeed a very good man, and I have supported him for seven years." Barkley added.
