King 34, faces close to eight weeks of rehabilitation before being allowed to begin rigorous drills said or. Norman Scott who performed the operation at Beth Israel Hospital in new York. A because of Bernard a previous knee problems we re exercising caution a Scott said. A Bernard believes it will take at least another month after completing his rehab work for him to be in playing  Scott also operated on Kings knee in 1985 when King played Tor the new York kicks in 1985. King underwent almost two years of rehabilitation before resuming his basketball career. King averaged 28.4 Points and won an All Star berth last  none the worse for his bite a file outspoken Charles Barkley. A people always blame you by Rob Staggenborg staff writer Munich Germany a Charles Barkley is not a Happy Man. His Philadelphia 76ers lost in the playoffs again a fact that does no to sit Well with the 6-foot-6, 252-Pound Forward. He wants out but he wants an Aba championship ring even More. A i  mind getting out of Philadelphia. It  faze me in the least bit a Barkley said during a visit to Munich last week with the Nike entourage conducting exhibitions around Europe. The 76ers�?T off season shopping or Lack thereof has Barkley  the round Mound of rebound concerned. A a we be got two new players Charles Shackelford and Mitchell Williams. I Hope that  come in and do a Good Job. I just want Guys who la come in and work hard. I can Deal with winning or losing As Long As we play hard. A if Charles Shackelford plays Well we re a legitimate championship contender. We re Gonna be Good because of me and Hersey Hawkins a he said. A if we re Gonna win 45-50 games the other Guys around us have to play better. Our teams Only going to be As Good As the Guys that play around me and  shouldering the blame for much of Philadelphia s postseason woes is Barkley another fact he has a hard time accepting. A people always blame us for teams not doing Well. They say we do too much. Its not that we want to do too much its just that our teams not Good enough. Its no coincidence that when Chicago bulls Scottie Pippen started playing great the bulls won the championship. People have been blaming Michael Jordan. Michael does no to want to go out and score 40 Points a night but unfortunately when you play with players who Arentt As Good you have to do More than you a like. Now Scottie plays really really Good and they win a championship that a not just by coincidence. That a just a fact. A unfortunately when you re a superstar people always blame you. Because when you get to the top people want to take shots at you. They want to bring you Down All the  Barkley who a entering his seventh year in the Aba after a Stellar collegiate career at Auburn was the 76ers�?T first round draft pick in 1984. He has appeared on the Arsinio Hall show late night with David Letterman thirty something and even a soap opera a the Young and the restless a title which in Many ways mirrors Barkley a attitude towards professional basketball. Last season a much publicized spat with a fan in which he was accused of spitting on a Young girl did no to do much for his Public image. Not that he cares. A Only about one percent of the people in the world can understand what in a doing a he said. A a there re Only one percent of the people in the world who Ever get to the Point where they re considered to be two or three of the Best at what they do. Then  understand what it takes to get to where i am. A to somebody else it might seem like in a aggressive or too hard on the other players  can to understand what it takes to get to a certain level and stay there. Its harder to stay there than get  a ninety percent of the people in the world never fulfil their expectations or reach their full potential because they done to work hard enough a he said. A to get to be Good at anything you have to work extremely hard. I mean harder than Vout a Ever think you a have to work. Most players done to accomplish that. That a the difference Between being Good and being really Good. I could practice one hour a Day and be. Good but id rather practice four hours a Day and be really  despite his problems both on and off the court Barkley remains a basketball writers dream interview. The Aba Public relations association selected him for their All interview team. A Sample from the Barkley quote Book a on his perceived Oft volatile personality a a in a the same All the time. My personality never changes. When in Mon the court the Only thing that matters to me is going out do the Best i can and  a on burnout a you just have to accept the fact that you re just going to get tired. In be have a couple lulls during the season. I think i have two periods a year where i just get tired maybe a couple weeks where i just get tired and its like a real struggle to get up to play everyday. I done to care How Good of a shape you re in and How much working out you do you just get tired a cause you re  a on the Aba salary Cap which keeps team salaries from skyrocketing like baseball salaries a when they instituted the salary Cap it was Good for basketball because it kept the salaries Down. Now i think its a hindrance. You used to be Able to work around it. Now its become More restrictive and you can to sign free agents. We re one decent player from being a legitimate contender but unfortunately it can to happen. Salaries can to go much higher. There a not much difference Between three million and four million dollars once you get to a certain  a on being overpaid a people done to complain when Arnold Schwarzenegger makes $10 million and makes a bad movie. He makes More than i do. It depends How you look at it. Obviously we re overpaid. That a a lot of Money to be paid to play basketball. But the Market can Bear it and who should make the Money other than the athletes because they re the ones doing the work. A technically i think we should be making More. Salaries Are about 10 to 15 million dollars and teams Are making 50 to 60 million dollars a year. The owners not doing anything. He a just sitting Back and watching us play. A a there re not Many Guys sitting at Home who can play basketball As Good As a Scottie Pippen. There Arentt Many peo ele sitting at Home who can play Basket All As Good a it me or Michael Jordan or Karl Malone. Anybody can go to the bakery and bake cookies everyday but there Are not Many Guys who can go out and get 25 Points and 10 rebounds a night. A sure some Guys Arentt Worth the Money they make. There Are players who Are getting paid a lot who can to play. I done to sit around saying a Man this Guys making More Money than  i done to have time to sit around and think about menial things. He makes four million i make three million. A million dollars hey once you get up to a certain Point its All relative. A on playing against certain teams and certain players a anytime you play against a superstar its a different game. When i play against the bulls or magic or Akeem or David Robinson its a Little different from playing against an expansion team. If you re going to go out with a real pretty girl then its obviously different than going out with a real ugly
