So here I am skimming through EBay looking for a Dream autographed picture in the old red uniform and I come across THIS http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1138156487 It looked pretty weird to me so I looked up Rocketsball.com to see who it was registered to and it says some Veterans Memorial address but no other info. Then I looked at some of the other items this person is selling and I see, among other very odd things, a $25,000 1971 Mercedes which will be delivered by Hakeem himself! lol This is either one of the biggest frauds I've ever seen or Dream is having a heck of an internet garage sale! ------------------ The ox is slow but the Earth is patient.
This is incredibly odd . . . check out some of their auctions . . . ------------------ "Up and down, inside out, outside in, some you lose some you win" -- DMB -> "Sweet Up and Down"

300 piece drill bit set? What? I guess $16.7 mill doesn't go as far as it used too. Either that, or they had too much money on their hands & are compulsive shoppers. Those silly Millionaires. ------------------ [This message has been edited by Hottoddie (edited April 30, 2001).]
Yes, I have to have the drill bit set that Matt and Hakeem both use....sign me up! ------------------ HEAD KNIGHT: We are now... no longer the Knights Who Say 'Ni'. KNIGHTS OF NI: Ni! Shh!

How many do you need? They've got 3 listings with a total of 2,000 sets available. I guess they wanted to make sure that no one would be disappointed. ------------------
Hey man I'm being serious...comeon now should I trust this guy. Some of his stuff is really really expensive. He sold a metal ball that Hakeem got from the Olympics. It sold for I think around $400. I am particularly interested in the his jerseys that he is going to have for sale in the future. I dont know if I should trust him. He also has those sunglasses icon thingy next to his user id. Speaking of auctions, whoever outbid me on the Hakeem Olajuwon PSA 10 GEM MINT Rookie Card auction that ended last night can kiss my A$$! Stupid thing sold for $1201! I had kept my maximum bid at $1175 ------------------

I saw those auctions as well.. . I believe all the money goes to charity. As far as the drill bits... I think this guy bought a bunch of em and is just trying to get rid of them... it is a pretty bizarre thing. I seriously doubt they belonged to Matt or Dream. I did save the sweet pic of Dream on his ride! Here it is: happy biddin' rH ------------------ visit: The Psychedelic Groove House of Rockets Basketball Love!

The guy sounds legit. I emailed him to ask him something. I told him that if I won a high price item from him would he be willing to meet me in person to exchange money and the item, and he said yes. When I told him what I am interested in and asked him when he was going to list that item he told me when Hakeem comes back from vacation. By the way does anyone have any idea how much a Hakeem game used autograph jersey from a championship game would go for? ------------------
Hey I have been keeping up with this guys auctions too! I am interested in some of the future things he might have for sale. Is there Jeff or someone who knows if Hakeem is actually involved with this guy? ------------------
Hey did the guy say who he was? I read today in the Chron that Hakeem has a new agent. Is this his new agent? lol ------------------ The ox is slow but the Earth is patient.
