    Kudos to the NBA for getting rid of their old video service. the new one is way better.

    3:17 Mark - Kenny talks about getting his championship rings, gives shout outs to Robert Horry, Sam Cassell.. and VERNON MAXWELL! (I'm guessing Max is out of the slammer)

    22:25 Kenny and Charles talk about the Rockets, Kenny explains why he thinks the Rockets will win it all. Charles says he worries about health and Ron Artest as the X-factor. Kenny says people are sleeping on Rafer Alston.

    This is also the infamous video where the Barkley stalkers claim that Barkley is 'hating' on the Rockets.

    I'm feeling much better about Ron Artest and his behavior now than I was back in August. I've seen absolutely nothing from him that would indicate he'll be a distraction for the team. Quite the opposite -- he seems to be taking a real leadership role.

    So, that's really my only dispute with what Charles said. All the "hater" talk, from this at least, is silly.

    The most important things that got through on national television

    1. Kenny picked the Rockets to go all the way cause we are the deepest team
    2. Charles throws out the factors that he thinks are major issues
    a. Health
    b. Ron Artest and how he fits
    3. Kenny mentioned Maxwell at the beginning of the show

    I was surprised he didnt mention Dream though.

    Hey Kenny, you wouldnt have those rings that you grill Charles about all the time without Dream and im sure Dream would of gotten his with or without you. If youre gonna give shout outs to the members of your championship team, you gotta mention your leader and mentor IMHO.

    I think he was talking about guys he's run into lately and probably hangs out with.

    Charles usually tells Kenny that he wouldn't have any of those rings without the Dream all the time.

    That's what Charles mentions in the video I posted above your post.

    I still believe he just mentioned those names because he says 'when i run into guys like..' he means teammates he saw recently

    I do admire your passion that you want the world to know the answer to the question

    "WHO IS DREAM?"
