Dwight's going to love it here. People have always been asking Shaq about Dwight since they both played in Orlando and LA, and Shaq always trashes him cuz he is insecure. Hakeem on the other hand, wants to make Dwight better. Gotta love the dream. Respect.
With all due and considerable respect to our obvious benefactor here, Hakeem IS the "clutch" in clutch city! He took Houston's collective hands off of our collective throat and placed a championship trophy in each one. 'nuff said
I believe Dream was definitely a factor on Dwight coming to Houston. He's not even hooping and he still helps us win.
See, this is the stuff that the Lakers will NEVER understand. Douches like Shaq and Kobe are not interested in making their contemporaries BETTER. They are too busy dominating everybody around them, and masking their own insecurities. Guys like Olajuwon, Clyde, Dikembe, and Yao want to see Houston and the Rockets flourish. They want other players to come and be the next legend in line, and they will do whatever they can to help achieve that. So while Shaq is busy calling Houston a "small town", and bashing Dwight's decision to come here, Olajuwon is going to be getting to work with the big man to help him become the next legendary center in the NBA.
If you're a Rockets fan and someone ask you "who is the greatest Houston Rockets player of all time?" and you DON'T answer "Hakeem Olajuwon"...then you really don't know what you are talking about.
