OH no no no he wasn't Akeem was a HOT HEAD who got in tons of fights etc.....he slapped Maxwell at halftime. HAKEEM after he found religion became much more mature and self aware. KPJ in his press conference this season said he had realized he was getting in his own way, it was a huge leap in maturity. DD
I think he can be a clutch scorer.. Need a bucket , I trust him more than anyone else... Notice I wouldn't dare say " need a play", because that implies precision passing.. Which he doesn't possess whatsoever... But I'd trust him to get a bucket 100%..
There's a difference between "hot head " and a person that don't take no ****... Hot heads talk and have a look at me complex! Akeem did the total opposite.. You talk, I'll shut you up!
Well speaking from experience , back then we'd try an African descendant . Tested his nuts so to speak .. Very lame of us as a youth.. Most shied away .. I'm sure mfers tried him and he had to let em know ... Like I said, shut him up!
