    Yes, it bothers me that you didn't know what year Hakeem retired.

    So Google refuses to accept the fact that Hakeem ever retired... It's as if tinman became a search engine.

    So what is more offensive, the fact that Google assumes you're talking about Kareem, or that the first result actually about Hakeem spells his last name "Olijuan"?

    So google just got confused with the similarity between two big names in the NBA history, Kareem and Hakeem? No way is there any similarity in between, except for the eem part of their name. :eek:

    I did search for an answer to that what year did Hakeem retire question once before, and finally I gave up doing in with Hakeem only in the sentence, adding his last name Olajuwon to it help me get the answer.

    What do you expect from someone who puts Barkley among the all-time top 10 defensive big men?
