    From The Chronicle:

    "Former Rocket Clyde Drexler will be on the NBA Legends Tour this summer, a team of seven former NBA players in an exhibition series this August in China. Among those joining Drexler on the Aug. 7-18 tour will be Rolando Blackman, Dominique Wilkins and Danny Schayes. Rick Barry will coach, and the final four spots will be filled with players from the CBA and IBL. Three games will be played against the Chinese Olympic team in Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai. Uh, excuse me. Danny Schayes a legend? He's not even the best player in his family. ... "

    Is his family going with him?

    Or is he just a crappy coach?

    I'm glad to see that Dominique is doing something with the league.

    I'm sorry, but he left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

    I really don't like watching a player on my favorite team smiling after his team gets beat in a playoff series.

    Especially to the Jazz.

    I bet you weren't upset when Clyde was smiling after the Orlando Magic playoff series....

    Wow, you're right DREAMer...

    However, I don't let players for my team do whatever they want, and then just say, "well, they did win a championship, boo hoo hoo."

    Maybe if he had any pride, he'd have taken over Barkley's leadership role, in the second half of Game 4, and in Game 5, rather than be content with his one championship.

    How did Larry Bird do in his last game?

    How did Kareem Abdul-Jabbar do in his last game?

    How did Wilt Chamerlain do in his last game?

    How did Magic Johnson do in his last game?

    How did Dr. J do in his last game?

    How did Charles Barkley do in his last game?

    -------------------------------

    I was pissed at Clyde that he saved his worst game of his career for that game 5 against Utah.

    But, without Barkley we had no chance of winning the next round, or the championship for that matter. With Barkley, I really think we had a shot, but it was not to be.

    It's been a few years, and it's time to let Clyde's bad performance fade away into oblivion. There's no chance for him to make it up. There's no next year for Clyde.
