:hhh:

Shameless.
:manny: I never cared about KD joining a team he lost to, I cared about him joining that team. The CP3 situation isn’t even remotely similar. He joined a team that lost handily in the second round against a team that didn’t even advance to the finals. No one would argue the Rockets prior to the CP3 signing were contenders.

:ehh:BARKLEY WENT UP 2-0
AFTER WINNING THE 1ST 2 GAMES IN HOUSTON IN 94.

BLEW THAT SERIES.

WENT UP 3-1 IN 95

BLEW THAT SERIES.

JOINED HOUSTON IN THE SUMMER OF 96.
:devil:
:evil:

its a well known fact. Barkley is a hypocrite, talking shyt on players forming super teams when his sorry ass tried to sneak in one himself but failed BADLY. If they still had cassell and horry they might have eliminated jazz and none of that stockton game winner would ever happened

BARKLEY WENT TO A TEAM THAT WON 2 TITLES WITHOUT HIM.


:devil:
:evil:

Didn't even sign as a free agent, forced a trade after saying he would retire if the Suns didn't move him:picard:

BARKLEY TRADED TO THE ROCKETS

"I'm very excited; obviously it's something I wanted to do," Barkley, vacationing in Philadelphia, told Phoenix television station KSAZ today. "Houston was my first priority."
"I'm excited because . . . I called the shots," he said of the trade. "When push comes to shove, I think you have to stand up to the system."
Charles Barkley finally gets his wish, having said he would retire if Suns didn't trade him to a contender.

Let's see. The Hakeem rockets were a championship team who beat Barkley twice in the playoffs Barkley actually made them WORSE. The Harden rockets were not a championship team at all. And Chris Paul ADDED to that team. He actually made them better. BIG DIFFERENCE.

That trade was how i became a Rockets fan to this day. I was a huge Barkley fan. Followed him from Philly to the Suns to the Rockets. Thats why i never had a problem with fans following their favorite player or players going where they wanted(Durant lebron). Those Suns losses to the Rockets hurt like hell.. then the Rockets losses to the Jazz hurt..When he retired i just chilled with the Rockets because of Steve Francis and Mobley. Then Yao came..
