Yeah, you seem real tore up about it. "but like all great players, he needs to know when to give it up" Why do only great players need to know when to give it up? It seems Hakeem is the only person in the NBA that should retire, at least around this board. Why is that? Why is Hakeem the only player in the NBA that should retire? That's a little weird, isn't it? I always thought that if you still wanted to play, and someone wanted to pay you, you had no reason to stop doing what you love. Maybe Hakeem is different for some reason?
