i think that was a little too harsh and bad writing. he didint' even mention the facts just said that the doctors told him to sit out doens't mention that there are medical reasons etc ------------------ Shane "Save Our Rockets" "Life without basketball in Houston........without an arena that is what it will be"
The article was written by a guy who "is a regular contributor to MSNBC on the Internet and covers boxing and the NFL for the Boston Globe." Given those credentials, I'm wondering why he was writing about Dream in the first place. ------------------
It was a bit overlong and certainly melodramatic. The misfit part of this quote I like: "Now he is saddled with hernia surgery, a respiratory condition, old legs and a supporting cast of misfits that couldn't have gotten into a Rockets' game in Olajuwon's heyday without a ticket. " Kenny Smith, Maxwell, Horry, Thorpe, vs. Francis, Mobley, Anderson, Thomas? ------------------
Wrong information too: What happened to Olajuwon was that Ewing dominated him like he never had before. He outscored him 16 to zero as Olajuwon went 0-for-9 from the field and often looked like someone with weights tied to his sneakers. Heavy weights. Dream scored 4 points off of free throws. After that the Rockets chances of the kind of upset that can buoy a sorry team like theirs for weeks was gone. Now he is saddled with hernia surgery, a respiratory condition, old legs and a supporting cast of misfits that couldn't have gotten into a Rockets' game in Olajuwon's heyday without a ticket. Complete garbage IMHO, and overly melodramatic, as Juan pointed out. ------------------ "Sources tell me that the Blazers held a team meeting after the two losses..." - "Pistol" Pete Vescey with the inside scoop.
