    Clutchfans was created by Clutch
    Who was inspired by the clutch city rockets championships

    Hakeem was the main reason for Clutch city

    Therefore any Dream related content is always clutch fans related

    Count this as an educational thread

    and 1984 was arguably the best draft in NBA history.

    But I think MJ means many more drafts than 1984, like he's saying Dream is the best since then.

    MJ knows the 2nd best player in NBA history was Dream. Tied with Bird and Magic.

    I don't make it a ritual to get on Clutchfans and miss a lot of information. I for one appreciate the thread. Absolutely nothing wrong with bringing up old information, especially when it comes to Olajuwon and the 2 championship teams. Next time link to the old thread and keep the sarcasm.

    The meaning of the pic connects tinman to anything ClutchFans/Rockets related!

    Sadly, only a handful of people are old enough to decipher it...:(

    I'm with Opie.

    So many great things here.

    1. Look how flexible Hakeem is, how low he gets in the blocks.
    2. Look how Hakeem can receive a bullet pass and before he's cradled it, he's already into his move.
    3. Constantly on the balls of his feet even when he's bent at the knees and waist. Just always ready to explode into his move because he's always on the balls of his feet.

    I've never seen this video, don't lock it up. Others might not have seen it.

    But there's an argument here that took place that is being completely ignored. Jordan was completely wrong. He said he would have picked himself in front of Hakeem. This means his team is probably inferior. Hakeem > Jordan. Sorry, Jordan, but you couldn't rebound or block like the Dream and your passing skills weren't good enough to trump those two categories. Plus your FG% was lacking, Mike.

    Like Dream, if I could be like Dream. I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be like Dream. If I could be like Dream.

    Also, that Lakers All Time vs Bulls All Time would be awesome.

    Artis Gilmore/Dennis Rodman/Scottie/Jordan/Derrick Rose

    vs

    Kareem/Pau Gasol/James Worthy/Kobe/Magic (maybe Jerry West over Kobe, never saw The Logo play)

    Oddly enough, that question was brought up by Shaq, but Shaq doesn't even play in it if you ask me. Kareem > Shaq. I think the Bulls take it, but it would be a great game. But Hakeem/Big E/TMac/Drex/Calvin could take either.

    It's not arguable because it's not debatable.

    4 - Top 30 players

    2 of which are Top 10

    1 of which is the widely considered GOAT

    Plus Kevin Willis, Jerome Kersey (rip), Alvin Robinson

    Might be close to 80 all-star appearances for that group
