    Where does Charles Barkley fit in this discussion, or are we labeling him a small forward? He was short -- about 6-foot-5 but he played like a power forward, or a small forward, or a point forward....

    Barkley was definitely a power forward, despite his height. Tough rebounder and interior scorer, who could also go outside and hit the 3 well enough that you had to guard him from there. Classic power forward.

    Shawn Kemp before 15 for 15 and those extra lbs.

    Yeah, if Kemp could have kept himself together a little longer he might have been one of the top 5 PFs ever. Off the top of my head I can think of Malone, Barkley, McHale and then Dave DeBusschere and Gus Johnson from the '70s. There are probably some that I'm forgetting, but overall power forward is the thinnest of the five positions in terms of all-time greats.

    On a good day, Chuck is 6-3 at best.
