Happy 50th Birthday (February 20, 1963) to Sir Charles Barkley. Drafted fifth overall in 1984, he played eight seasons with the 76ers from 1984–1992 and transformed himself from the “chubby” kid with tons of potential to one of the NBA’s 50 Greatest Players.

Barkley is a nine-time NBA all-star and a member of two gold medal-winning U.S.A. Olympic teams. He ranks 20th overall on the all-time NBA points list (23,757) and grabbed 11.7 rebounds per game over his career. He led the NBA in rebounding in 1987 with 14.6 per game— a tremendous feat for someone who is listed at 6’6” (small by NBA standards) and in reality is closer to 6’4”.

¡FELIZ 50 CUMPLEAÑOS CHARLES BARKLEY!

Carmelo Anthony, Charles Barkley and Raising The Bar After The Olympics

If you were not aware, Team USA Basketball has officially begun their training to prepare for the 2012 London Olympics. Team USA is the clear favorite to bring home the gold once again, to no one’s amazement, although many of the potential team members will have had just a few weeks to rest and recover from a hectic 2011-12 NBA campaign.

One of America’s leaders on this 2012 team will be the man with the Puertorican flag tattooed on his shooting hand, Mr. Carmelo Anthony.

For Anthony, this will be his third rodeo with the Men’s Olympic team. In 2004, he was a rookie on what some would call America’s biggest international embarrassment. USA would relinquish their hold on the gold medal in 2004, sustain an overhaul of USA’s entire organization, and in 2008 Carmelo was not only a captain of the squad, but arguably the team’s most dominant player. The Redeem Team wrecked havoc on all comers and the USA brought home their first gold medal in an international competition in 8 years since the 2000 Olympics.
