    Lucky dude. Did you ask if he'll be working with any of these guys in the offseason?

    A literal "DREAM" come true for you, I'm sure! Congrats!
    I will def. have to give it a read, now that I'm aware, and it's a 99er:cool:
    Can't even imagine that conversation. He's so humble, and knowledgeable it seems in all of his interviews he's ever given.

    Just awesome, congratulations.

    Surely you spoke to him about Dwight Howard.

    Incredibly cool. Congrats on the work, the story, and getting to talk to the Dream.

    On a side note, a Mormon friend of mine said that Hakeem invited some people from his church over to his house for dinner, and they just talked about Religion. It wasn't about anyone trying to convince the other of which side was right. They said Hakeem really just wanted to know all about what they believed and to learn. Apparently he did that kind of thing with different people fairly regularly.

    I imagine he'd be really cool to talk to.

    FYI, I didn't talk with him about any player specifically. I spoke with him about his life and his new clothing line. We talked a lot about his playing days and how he still plays pickup games today...that was fascinating.

    Most excellent! He's still the best of all time, IMO.
