    Classy of Vuce to give him a high five after that.

    This vid makes me happy and sad all at once.

    Awesome to see the two of them.

    On another note, amazing that Deke has been 50 for more than a decade now.

    I see at 52 years old Dream still has a better post game than about 90% of today's NBA.

    I feel so lucky to have gotten to watch Hakeem as he played for the Rockets. He is my favorite player of all time.

    Shows how the league has gone to the small ball game. I am glad I at least got to watch the Dream play live.

    Imagine if Dream and Deke played at their peaks together for the Rox. No one would score within 15 feet of the rim. No one.

    I loved the Dream Shake! Brought back great memories! Hakeem is the best!

    Seeing him in the old Houston Rockets ketchup and mustard was unbelievable! A peak Hakeem would have destroyed all of the current stars in the NBA with ease.

    Yeah and that's just sad but it's true.

    I bet he could play like 7 mins...probably wouldn't feel good the next day though but still!

    He's 52 and still looks like he's more mobile than most backup centers - pretty good in my book!
