WOW!! I was really impressed with Barkley in the Boston-Philly series. If he can keep his desire, and control his temper, I think he is going to be one hellava player. I couldn't believe the job he did on the boards in the 4th game, and even in the fifth and final game he hit 3 of 3, 3 pointers. I think Philly has really got a prize in Barkley. Somebody tell me, how could he NOT be on the olympic team. After all that Dr. J has done for the Sixers, Philly fans should be ashamed to boo him. In fact the Sixer fans probably got just what they deserve, after all they don't fill the Spectrum that often, and then they boo one of the greatest players in the game? I just can't imagine that. -- Roger Pannell ARPA: pannell%dosadi.DEC@DECWRL.ARPA, pannell%dosadi.DEC@Purdue-Merlin.ARPA UUCP: {allegra, decvax, ucbvax}!decwrl!rhea!dosadi!pannell

Of course, if he gets too enthusiastic here, he can always make a bid to become the first ex-NBA player to start an NFL game as a defensive end. :-) > I think he is going to be one >hellava player.

I agree it was too bad he didn't make the Olympic team; I would have enjoyed watching the poor Hong Kong team member assigned to guard Barkley try and keep him off the boards. But, with all the talent available for the squad and only 18 places to put them, there wasn't room for a player Knight thought of as somewhat one-dimensional. And that's the way it goes.
