In fact, he came out publically and gave an honest answer. Barkley said “That never bothered me because I had no idea what was going on in his private life. What was funny was people close to him called me and asked me if I knew if that stuff was going on.”
He added “I said, ‘Wait a minute, I see the guy three times a year. You see the guy 100 times a year. If y’all didn’t know what was going on, I didn’t know what was going on.’”
While the fires of this friendship are long dead, we see that the smoke continues to rise from its embers.
