Episode #30: Houston, We Have A Big 3 - Charles Barkley's Time As A Rocket

  • Summary

  • After back-to-back championships, the Rockets were suddenly trending in the wrong direction after a turbulent 1996 season. Charles Barkley, over in Phoenix, had grown impatient in the Valley of the Sun. The stars aligned for both parties in the summer of 1996 when the Rockets made a blockbuster trade to form one of the "Big 3s" of yesteryear by acquiring Barkley to pair with Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler.

    In today's bonus episode Josh details those years in Houston to determine if the Barkley trade was really worth the gamble.
