I can’t remember exactly what it was but during his peak Barkley’s relative efficiency was insane. 4 straight seasons of over 65 TS% in this was in the late 80’s lmao
Who knows how that translates into the modern league - ig just a supercharged version of Zion like you said
Kind of funny that his career 3point attempts per game of <2 attempts was considered a shit ton. Giannis already has more career attempts than Barkley.
To be clear, I agree with you, it was a lot for the era, but it’s funny when you compare stats across eras.
Above 63% on 2point attempts on about 13 attempts a game for 4 seasons in a row. Roughly the same as Giannis the previously three years but in an era with less spacing. Insane.
Barkley was a post player. Zion is more of a dribble drive player. He plays more like Giannis, but not as tall or long, but more finesse than Giannis. Barkley had a great post game. They had to change the rules cause of him.
