    he is the dream. He will always have a place on my team. Always.








    Plus it would get that ugly Raptor taste out of my mouth.

    Can't we at least get him back as a big man coach? I know Ewing might feel threatened but quite frankly, I don't give a damn.

    Come back and play for Houston? I doubt he'll even be making a trip back to the United States anytime soon.

    What if Dr. Naismith felt the itch and got ressurected and declared Houston his new home and wanted to coach the Rockets?

    why? he didn't feel it was that necesary to retire a rocket so I dont see him wanting to come back for cheap to play his last days...

    All these scenarios remind me of Roger Dorn "re-instating" himself in Major League II.

    That movie was a flop, an embarassment to the original... and so are these propsed situations in bringing back retired players like Hakeem and Charles.

    I would love to have Dream back with the organization, BUT no way he plays. The guy is over the top, age and the shake has taken it's toll on him.


    Gawd I hate the Raptors.....

    We could probably get 10 minutes a game out of Hakeem... if they let him play using a walker, that is.
