What is Barkley's plan?

Is he gonna hang with the team for the rest of the season? I gotta ask. Why doesn't the Rockets management give him an assistant's job for the salary he is making? It could well turn out to be a great stepping-stone for him and the organization.

What are your thoughts?

From what I remember Barkley saying, he wanted to get into commentary. I remember ESPN and NBC were both looking to sign him on to help do their broadcasts. As for the rest of the season, I'm not sure what he's up to other than rehab.

ESPN! That would be interesting.

I think Charles said he might start traveling with the team later on.
