    That's what I remember him most for. Unbelievable shot.

    Kevin Harlan was on the call.

    Thank you! Yes, that's the shot I remember. What's interesting to me is how it's become even more spectacular in my memory with the passage of time. Still, it was spectacular enough.

    I believe the self check out they're referring to is checking out through the Apple Store app on your phone. I always wondered why there weren't more cases like this.

    Doesn't he work in radio? Or perhaps he got fired earlier this year?

    No doubt, unbelievable shot. I remember cheering at the time because it was against the hated Sonics.


    I still prefer Vernon's version though :grin:

    One of the inner-city thug players of yesteryear.

    I still don't understand how guys who get paid millions have to resort to things like this. Even when they retire, they're still in the loop to get coaching gigs, sports analysts, ect. that pay them 100K+ a year. As a poor person, I will never understand this.

    Again, there was absolutely nothing around his high school but literally a few small middle-middle class neighborhoods and cornfields. Town of about 45,000. Unless he fell in with the wrong crew at UK, no, this is his own wrong-doing.

    I remember watching him at the 86 Olympic Festival here in Houston. I see this short white guard throwing down on people and I was like who the hell is that and then the next year he bursts on the scene at Kentucky and we all knew him after that.

    The current shape and build of Rex these days combined with that kind of athleticism would be no other than Barkley 2.0.

    I wish I can rebuild my old Washington Bullets teams again.

    I wanna see Rex Chapman, Calbert Chainey, Kevin Duckworth, Gheorge Muresan, and a bunch of other dudes I don't remember go up against the best of the Rockets in that early to mid 90s era.
