    Hakeem was African? I could have sworn he spent his entire life in Houston? Like Houston born and bred. I mean, his name, Hakeem, or Akeem as the 99ers call him, just sounds like a Houstonian name. I learned something new today.

    Yes

    Houston is a pure American city where immigration thrives.

    Dream came from Africa to Houston and became pure

    This quote is pure ignorance. I'm not even from Nigeria & feel offended by this. Robert Horry knows better to say this out loud

    I'm not surprised. MJ had the utmost respect for Hakeem's brilliance.
    Hakeem didn't fear him. Everyone else did.

    if Dream and MJ were on the same team, they can probably win 10 rings in a row

    If one was ‘afraid’ of Sabonis would it be OK to say, “I am afraid of the big Lithuanian”? Can you say “That German was a heck of a player” when talking about Nowitzki?

    Dream should be mentioned in every GOAT conversation. Best I’ve ever seen.

    Quick English lesson about pronouns

    If you ask Michael Jordan about A?
    He would say this about A

    He refers to Michael Jordan

    That easily could have have happened. Add Drexler on top of that.

    He shouldn't have put this out there. Him putting that out there was uneccesary

    If you imply because he's German you're "afraid" of him then yes, then it's offensive

    MJ is a racist. This is how you end up drafting Adam Morrison.
