Barkley enjoys telling the story about how he tried to get the Blazers to trade for him during the summer of 1991..
“I thought they had the best home-court advantage in the NBA,” Charles said “They were loaded. It was a nightmare playing against them.”
Barkley, then with the Philadelphia 76ers, says he called Geoff Petrie, Portland’s vice president/operations at the time.
“I told Geoff, ‘I really need to sit down with you face-to-face and talk,’ “ Barkley says. “Then I flew to Portland in the middle of the summer on my own dime. Didn’t tell anybody in the world.
“We sat down and talked for a couple of hours. I told him, ‘You’re one of the few teams that can give up enough players to get me. The only weakness, you can’t score in the half-court when the game is on the line in the playoffs. That’s my specialty. I don’t care who you give up, I’ll still have enough (talent) here to win a title.’ He said,
‘We’d love to have you, but I’m not sure what it would take.’ I told him, ‘Do whatever it takes.’ ”
Barkley says Petrie called back a few days later.
He said, ‘We’re going to stick with what we got,’ “ Barkley says. “I said, ‘No hard feelings,’ and the rest is history.”
