Will you still be a Rockets fan if we trade/waive Hakeem?

    I would still be a fan, but not to the same degree I am now.

    Absolutely. I will always be a Houston Rockets fan; I'd be no less a fan than I ever was. I'm looking forward to the future with Cat, Steve, and the others. I usually root against players that leave the Rockets via trade or for more money, but in Hakeem's case I'd probably make an exception. He did more for this team than any other player in its history probably, and I have to respect him for that.

    But I'm a Rockets fan above and beyond any player's fan.

    Yes, of course. Olajuwon possibly leaving would not affect my loyalty to the Rockets at all. The team comes first.

    I would not be a rockets fan anymore, in fact the Rockets would be my second least favorite team behind the Lakers. The Rcokets are full of a buch of assholes who suck at basketball, especially francis and mobley and rudy. They would be pretty damn close to the lakers. Mobley pisses me off almost as much as Kobe and more than shaq. Francis also pisses me off, but not as much as Mobley and Rudy is teh worst coach in the league.

    But to see Hakeem "the Dream" in another uniform is heart breaking for me. I grew up admiring him and Ralphy. Watching Kenny dish the ball inside as Hakeem made anyone and everyone look foolish in their attempt to "guard" the best center in the NBA. Ideally I would love Hakeem to go out of the NBA wearing the same (well not exactly the same) uniform he came in to the league with. But it seems for these hall of famers (ex: Ewing) the desire to last as long as possible is getting the best of them.

    I will always be a Rockets fan with or without the Dream, but can not see myself following Hakeem to his next team. Ewing fans must be dying watching him in a Sonics uni. What if Hakeem ends up in Portland, Seattle, or even the hated Utah ... arrrggg!!!

    Hakeem DON'T DO IT!!! Retire please!!

    Generation Next ... Francis please stand up... fan for life!!
