thats what barkley was saying on the show

those shots were amazing

He does make the backwards shot before every game, and it usually takes less than 5 tries. The fact that he made both of those shots back to back were amazing.

we got to our seats right as he made the first one. it was awesome.

That is awesome. I watched the shots probably 4-5 times. Simply amazing. I think the one from the chair is more impressive.

I heard she absolutely took him to cleaners in child support and cash because infidelity was proven and their lifestyle after his playing career ended did not match their income at all. The pool endorsement and TV gig also pay very marginally for his post-divorce lifestyle so he's basically become a middle-class guy living off his former fame. Someone I know with knowledge of the situation said it best - take Thunder Nine out of Phoenix and put him in LA and he's just a tall guy living in Reseda.


Know I'm free, free-falling.

Nah, the shot where he finger rolled the ball from further than half court is more impressive IMO.

I think Leander has improved, but that is not saying much. He still drives me crazy a lot!

"The man who put the J in jumpshot, Eddie Johnson"

It looks to me like Eddie wants to smack him every time he says that!

He's much better than Gary Bender IMO. Overall, I think we're fortunate to have the TV / Radio talent that we have. I hear a lot of complaints from friends in other cities about their local teams' media.

leander used to drive me up the wall, but now i find his idiotic ramblings hilarious. my brother and i have a drinking game: every time leander says something **********, drink.

actual leander quote from a few weeks ago: "i feel like a proud papa watching him stroke it from the outside!"

If some of you do not know, Majerle has been doing some of this since he played.

He used to make a shot from from mid court over his back before every game.

Thunder Dan is awesome...E.J. is the best in the valley but Thunder is so entertaining man. Too bad about his situation but I am sure he will recover.

for those of you saying Dan is scraping by or whatever term you used to describe the situation, i find it laughable at best. just so you know he owns tons of property over in Michigan that funds his bank account just fine.

next time youre walking by majerles after a game take a peek in the alley and tell me if that nice car you see is something thats driven by someone thats hurting for money....well, i guess it depends on which one you see but either of the 3 will do his wallet justice.

When I saw him, we were chatting at the Biltmore. He can't be hurting that bad.
