    You could've just checked the box scores instead of starting what will inevitably be yet another Hakeem-bashing thread.

    Hakeem had 8 points yesterday so he did well.
    Is he upset about the lack of playing time? Of course.
    Does he feel he should get the ball more? definately
    Does he give a flying hoot as long as they make the playoffs?
    Hell yes.

    Does he regret leaving Houston knowing what might have been if he would have stayed? Doubtful
    But I will say this he would be playing a helluvalot more than he is playing now.

    Could we see a potential buyout of Hakeems final year with the raptors? Yes it very possible


    Could he then resign with the Rockets and then retire. 100% probability

    Hakeem is not complaing about his playing time, What a bunch of jealous muthas you are. You playa hating fools cant make Hakeem the goat for this lousy assortment of nontalent the Rockets have. Give back to Hpuston, What a joke ha ha. I guess Hakeem should give them a whole new team.

    How about Rice for Hakeem + Tracy Murray? Just wanted to stir up the pot.

    Your wrong there he is very upset about his playing time
    if you follow ball so well you would notice he contributes every loss to the reason they are not getting the ball to him inside the paint.

    If you would like I could look up some quotes for you that he stated whn they have lost by 1 or 2 or even barelywon the game.

    Hakeem was traded to the Raptors with the condition he not be a complete factor to there equasion but a team player.

    There have been games where he has sat the bench the entire 4th quarter. Lenny just is not a very good coach when it comes to centers. He likes run and gun type plays and a few times they have lost I have seen hakeem open or keon clark or davis and Vince takes a shot with 2 people on him.

    By the way I am not a jealous mutha but someone who follows the Nba and not just one team. The raptors are playing better without Vince in the lineup and Hakeem is playing better as well.
    I will say this again Vince should leave toronto If he wants to have any chance of going all the way to the finals.
    You think T-mac would be the stud he is if he was still with Toronto? NOT even. T-mac played it smart and left.

    Toronto uses Vince as marketable icon nothing more nothing less.
    Nobody is hating on Hakeem I wish the big fella well but if he were here with the Rockets today we would not be in 11th place.
