This is best for the Rockets. Good luck Hakeem, I hope you guys make it to the Eastern Conference Finals. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching you play basketball for the past 20 years. ------------------ Odio arroz y frijoles!
I'm actually looking forward to see how he's used up in Toronto, and if he'll step up his game given the opportunity. Lord knows he's had enough of them here. Show us all what you can do, Hakeem. Good luck. ------------------ [This message has been edited by Hasher (edited August 01, 2001).]
WOOHOO... it's a sign and trade... At least we got picks and a trade exception... ------------------ "There are three kinds of lies: Lies, Damned Lies, and STATISTICS..." - Mark Twain -
and CD in his first offseason of cap space, in recent years (?) , never had a chance to bring in one FA to interview with the Rockets!! Thanks Hakeem, ------------------
Wow. Well, what can you say? Give us the pick and the exception and God bless. ------------------ Who's your buddy? Who's your pal? I am, aren't I?
PLAY HARDBALL CD , do you not settle for just draft picks (they will be to low). BRING IN KEON!!!!! ------------------
Holy Sh*t. Houston, the eagle has landed. The end of an era for the Rockets. This is officially Steve Francis' team now. Thanks for the memories, Hakeem. You will forever be remembered as the greatest player ever to don a Rockets uniform. You built this team into what it is today. Farewell, your true fans are still with you. ------------------ "Oh No..." -Bill Walton in 97 just before Stockton's buzzer beater
And use the draft picks and trade exception in a package for Raef Lafrentz . Not to beat a dead hourse... ------------------ Clutchcity.net... source for all your Rockets, Astros, political, music, humor, and Gordita news.
Well at least this whole situation with Hakeem is finally over we can all get on with our lives now ------------------

JEFF, do you know why nobody has mentioned KEON CLARK (in the media). Are the Raptors basically saying, "take our garbage and/or bad draft pick (with the exemption)" or take a hike!!! With Keon's contract up next year, how can Toronto afford another medium-high price player? Will CD & Co demand someone like Keon, or will they just look like FOOLS, and take the scraps? I wish they would just walk, if it gets that bad. ------------------
It's about damn time. Let's get our guys wrapped up now and see if Mark Jackson fits in here. ------------------ "I'm attempting to dream in a world where not many people dream any more." - "Rocket man" Brian Walker
