Manchester United with a new goalee? http://mobile.sportingnews.com/article/4636646-kareem-abdul-jabbar-book-stealing-the-game-lakers-ucla-center-of-the-year?modid=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F Even during his playing days, his scoring numbers didn't always reflect his humble attitude towards the game. This also applies to writing, a field he'd love to see his hoops peers enter one day. Perhaps one, in particular. "Hakeem Olajuwon. He's from Nigeria, he lives in Jordan now, he's getting ready to move to London, and he's played professional basketball in Houston. I think he's seen the world from a very interesting perspective," he said. "Finding out what he thinks about the world he lives in would definitely be interesting."
So is the implication that he's moving from the Kingdom of Jordan to London? I can understand Dream making a move, considering how dangerous the region is becoming, and Jordan is surrounded by the madness that we see far too often in the news. I wish him well, of course, and I hope Jordan makes it through these trying times. It will be difficult.
I'm sure they do, eventually, if they can figure out how to make it work. They would need at least 4 or 5 European teams in their own division, in my opinion, and it would still be very difficult to pull off. Think of the travel time! I doubt that that entered into Dream's thinking, but you never know. He certainly has the money to become a minority partner and would bring enormous credibility to a London team, again in my opinion.
This is the right thing to do. Hakeem should never live in a country named "Jordan." Jordan should live in a country named "Olajuwon."
No chance. I hope we sign David De Gea for life. Dude is the only saving grace of a so far disappointing campaign.
The commish, and his predecessor, both say that problem #1 is the paucity of NBA quality arenas in Europe. And that is just one of many issues. Hakeem can live where he chooses, and I am glad he chooses Houston for some of his time.
