Charles Barkley: This defense is the best I've ever seen.

Charles always has nice things to say about the Bulls. Didn't he predict the Bulls would be the top seed?

Hi to all Bulls fans here,

I'm a french editor for a website (basketball-backstage
fr). I'm interested in find the video of Barkley saying that the Bulls have the best defense he's ever seen. I've watched the available inside the nba's videos on nba.com but didn't find anything except "they're the best defense in the league".

So do you guys have a video on youtube or anything else for me to prove that he really said that ? That would be a great help, thank you

This maybe doesnt help you but they played it here. I think its about 5-10 minutes in.

He also predicted that the Bulls would come out of the east a few months ago...

The bulls play defense like this the rest of the playoffs they will win this heat series in 5, and most likely the finals in at most 6.

Well, the thing thats interesting about how the Bulls have been playing defense is it goes back to the 4th qtr of game 5 against Atlanta. Going into that 3rd qtr, the series was tied and Atlanta kind of had momentum in that game. The season hung in the balance and Thibs went with Rose, Brewer, Deng, Taj, and Asik to wrestle the season the game away and perhaps the season away from Atlanta. After that 4th qtr, Atlanta didnt get 20 points in one qtr during game 6.
