    Per beat reporter Royce Young on Zach Lowe podcast. They are thinking regular season doesn't matter because Hakeem and Clyde did it

    lulz...Hakeem/Rockets were reigning champ, and Drexler had the playoff experience of Finals runner-up TWICE, before that year. But they never had a triple dub like Westbrook, I guess.

    I almost puked like Richard Hendricks.

    Uh, the Rockets had the best player in the world at the time and were the defending champs.

    Someone needs to tell them that the regular season does matter because you can't win it all if you fail to make the playoffs.

    Russell, I grew up with Hakeem Olajuwon. I knew Hakeem Olajuwon. Hakeem Olajuwon was a hero of mine. Russell, you’re no Hakeem Olajuwon.

    Adams could be their Hakeem but RW is holding him back.

    I agree RW is holding back Adams, but I don't think Adams is even in the same stratosphere as Hakeem.

    I'll say he's as good as any PF/C in the league, but he can't be one of the top-50 GOAT by the time he's done, no matter what team he plays on.
