    Rockets officials announce today that part of Hakeem Olajuwans list of demands in his counter offer to Houston’s 3yr 13 million dollar contract proposal was a return to the Red and Gold uniforms that the Rockets wore while winning two ‘World Championships’. One source close to the Rockets over heard Olajuwan telling his agent, “This deal would have been done weeks ago for the veteran minimum if I could just wear my Red and Gold uniform one last year before I retire. The pin stripes are embarrassing!” It has also been highly speculated that Dreams contract demands are so high because of the embarrassing set of pin stripped pajamas the Rockets organization has forced him to wear the last few years. Hakeem was reportedly overheard trying to explain to one over zealous Rockets fan in Whole Foods that wearing pin stripped pajamas in public was strictly forbidden in the Muslim religion. When confronted about Hakeems latest demand Rockets owner Les Alexander replied, “I am unaware of any fan or anyone in the Rockets organization expressing any displeasure about the pin stripped pajam…er…uh uniforms.” An evil tormenting laugh was barely audible from Les as he walked away. More to come!

    O.K. so this may just be fantasy but I need something to do to pass the time in the off-season. [​IMG]

    That was a silly thing to say. [​IMG]

    Silly? If I were Hakeem, that would be one of my MAJOR concerns also. The uniforms are jinxed and are a major monstrosity, to not only the Rockets, but the NBA.

    the first contract demand we've heard which makes sense [​IMG] Was it mis-heard & he wants a different uniform, like the lycra bodysuits worn by female ballers. They would be better than the PJs. hahahaahahahaha

    D'oh! (_8(|) - a thought on Hakeem leaving
