    yes he has, i don't understand why the newer fans can't use this thing called "GOOGLE" before they start posting.

    before people say 'why has dream worked with ...[]'

    they can even go to the bbs search and they'll find something

    Actually in tweets and stuff Hill has been saying that he has been working out quite often.

    Hope this pays off, since we're trading for the #2 to flip to the suns for other assets that include Gortat. ;)

    Jordan Hill is busier with his dreadlocks than working with Dream.

    Priorities, priorities. :rolleyes:

    I wonder how much Hakeem charges for these workouts? He does it so much that I believe it has to be an extra source of income.

    You know, Mchale probably is for our players.

    Mchale is the guy who can make a mediocre post player good, he never really had any physical gifts, he just had outstanding technique.

    Hakeem on the other hand is the guy you go to, in order to make the gifted very good player a great player.

    Do players actually improve THAT much after a work out with Hakeem? I doubt it.

    I'm just gonna substitute "[insert player] to workout with Hakeem" to "[insert player] to hang out with Hakeem" because I doubt it really makes much of a difference. Nothing against Hakeem, but mediocre players will keep being mediocre while great players would have improved regardless.

    Hakeem needs to just start a BIG MAN's Camp
    and be done with it

    true but the chances of learning something from Hakeem is more than if you worked out with say... Greg Oden.

    How can someone be busy with dreadlocks? Also, I wasn't aware that a professional athlete who has shown flashes of why he was a lottery pick can be considered a bum.
