Gan Guoyang compensated the billiards hall owner for the light.
He certainly didn't want to sneak away with Barkley and see the headlines the next day, "Ah Gan and Barkley damaged billiards hall equipment and fled, NBA stars' quality so low".
Barkley called it dull, he sure wasn't short of cash, he just found the act as amusing as dining and dashing.
"Tomorrow's game is where the real fun is at, I'm going to shatter your offense."
"Cut the jokes, Sonny, we're going to make it to the finals this year!"
Barkley was quite confident in the Bullets' strength, as they acquired Moses Malone in the summer through a trade.

This was undoubtedly a very cost-effective trade, sending off Jeff Luland, who was plagued by injuries, in exchange for superstar Moses Malone, greatly strengthening the Bullets' interior lineup.
