    Barkley plans to bunk with Jordan in Chicago

    LOS ANGELES – Charles Barkley, getting in shape for a possible joint NBA comeback with Michael Jordan, plans to move in with Jordan for a month of serious training before a decision is made.

    Barkley said in Thursday's Los Angeles Times that when his broadcasting duties with TNT end May 24, he'll live and train with Jordan in Chicago.

    Barkley said Jordan came to his home in Scottsdale, Ariz., last week and they played in a scrimmage with Phoenix's Penny Hardaway.

    "Michael looked great," Barkley told the Times.

    Noting that Doug Collins is leaving his job as an NBC commentator to become coach of the Washington Wizards, Barkley said, "If that isn't an indication that Michael is coming back, I don't know what is."

    Barkley said he is working out twice a day and has lost 45 pounds since he and Jordan began training for their possible comebacks at the start of the year.

    Barkley now weighs 292 pounds and would like to get down to about 265. Jordan has lost 25 pounds.

    yo...MJ and Barkley comeback to me will happen next year.Barkley deserves a another title shot before his career is over.And who not to have it with is with the greatest player ever:Jordan.I believe if barkley and MJ comeback with the wizards,they have a great shot to win a championship,because they will draw star Free agents to the team.
    Rockets with CWebb,and Barkley with the wizards in the 2002 Finals?!?!That will be tight.Out..Peace~!

    In the same bed?

    My doctor says I am bipolar. I am going to get a second opinion. I have never had intimate desires for polar bears.

    I will bet that Dream joins them in Washington, and they get to the finals next year.

    Heck, I would root for them...when they were not playing my Rockets.
