Once the actual game comes out I'll create an updated version so that you can replace your Magic/Larry/Michael cover with the Hakeem one if you wish. Sorry for the low-quality Hakeem picture; but it's all I had to work with.

Very nice. Would it be possible for you to do one with Hakeem in the middle of a Dream Shake?

If only I could find one that is good enough quality.
Pretty much it was either this Hakeem or post-championship Hakeem (with the ugly pajama jersey).

Specifically the picture would have to have the entirety of Hakeem in it. (There are a few exceptions, my picture cut off the shoes so I had to draw them in.

The picture would also have to be about... 800x800, a few dozen pixels give or take. Following that criteria it took me about 10 minutes to find that Hakeem picture.

Honestly though, a skilled photoshopper could just get another picture of Hakeem and just combine the two should one picture be missing a half of Hakeem or something. I can do that, albeit not realistically.

Its a bit hard to get proper tuts because everyone is obsessed about sprites and anime atm.

Here's another one you could use. It would be cool if you could add some effects around him to accentuate the "Dream Shake" motion (maybe a motion blur?). Something unique and different from what's used in the Jordan/Magic/Bird covers. You could combine the red/yellow colors somehow in those effects as well, to contrast it with the color scheme used in the other covers.

It's upsetting that they don't include the 90s rockets in all their ketchup and mustard glory. I'm thinking it's time to make a stink to their corporate.

Are you talking about a Rockets all-decade team?
Because the 94-95 Rockets are in the game.

EDIT: 93-94. My bad.

The wider/uncropped version of this is the background on my phone, it's perfect for that.

Hakeem's Fathead has his whole body. Not the greatest pose, though.
