    Confirmation of the '3 million' dollars. This was BEFORE that final season, talking about the contract..


    Listen to what Peter Vescey says at the end about Barkley's contract ($14 million on the last season, and look at what Barkley actually got paid)

    Note how Barkley got the minimum $1 Million so that the Rockets can sign Pippen.
    He sacrificed and got screwed.

    I feel very sorry for any Rockets fans who did not witness Dream play, especially live.

    It was like watching a MCU movie, except CGI was real.

    Would the Houston Rockets exist if the allen brothers didn't settle here? 1836ers know...@Rockets1836

    but how long will we keep talking about the guy who owned the team in 2017 and at least we got 2 rings and he paid the taxx once, but hes gone, he had many faults we've all agreed. How about two days before our new no 2 pick we give some thanks to the guy who keeps delivering for H:[​IMG]
