    Hakeem Olajuwon Day should at least be a thing in Houston.

    Its hard to imagine that there will ever be a Rockets player that I admire and respect more than Hakeem.

    Akeem was born. Then Akeem willed Hakeem into existence. The rest is history...

    Dream Story:

    I was a mercenary rec league player, people would pick me up on teams to fill roster spots (and add talent I'm the Lebron James of the black top). One of my friends asked me to play at the lifetime fitness league in sugarland, but I was kind of busy that day so I declined just that one game.

    Couple hours pass and my friend calls me and said I should have come because Hakeem The Dream Olajuwon started playing on the rec league team because he was there and for cardio and just finished a workout or something..

    We're not friends anymore (just kidding we're friends, but he never let's me forget it how I missed out on hooping with Dream.)

    fun story right?

    Happy birthday to the greatest player I ever saw, and the reason I fell in love with basketball in a way I never did with soccer (to the delight of my American father haha)

    Happy birthday to the greatest Rockets ever. May his greatness rubs off on our team and bless us with the number 1 pick. He needs to represent us for the lottery event.
