Charles Barkley’s grandmother told him if he didn’t get a double-double he was an embarrassment to the family. He sits down with Bob Myers on Lead by Example to discuss being raised in the projects and his experience with racial divides. They break down the Hall of Famer’s authentic nature and the power of his voice, and highlight his “I Am Not a Role Model” Nike campaign. Bob wonders what it would be like to build a team around Charles, and they ponder whether he would’ve been a bust in today’s NBA.
