    impossible but i'd still like to dream (no pun intended). i'll always love my rockets but they have nowhere near the talent the elites have. what would you do to have a young dream on the rockets again? 1000 bucks? your car? i've got a great condition running cadillac sedan deville 1989. i'd give that up :) i'm so glad i grew up watching the college and pro career of dream.

    There used to be a basketball legend that said you have a chance to draft a great center once every 25yrs and the Rockets drafted 3 inside a 20yr span so it might be a long time before we get that chance again. That being said if you get a great 4 man you can build around him and win in todays NBA.

    I would give the Toyota center and the land it sits in. We would just move back to the Summit and wreck shop.

    Ditto, I would give up my addiction to this place and teaching the younger generation the truth about basketball.

    Other posters here are willing to give up their children and testicles for the Dream, but you can't part with Kyle Lowry?!!
