If you're making a list of guys you'd most like to have a beer with, Charles Barkley has to be a lock for a top-five spot. He's hilarious and a true raconteur, with an ability to tell off-the-cuff old NBA stories better than anyone else in sports. This video shows him in action.

It's unknown where it was shot—Sportsgrid thinks it's in the locker room of a celebrity softball game, maybe—but in it, Sir Charles tells about playing an exhibition game against Nowitzki in Germany when Dirk was just 18-years-old. 

Dirk dropped 52 points on the team of NBA all-stars, and afterward Barkley went up to the 7-footer to ask: "Dude, who the hell are you?"
