It'd be a really bad PR move to trade your franchise player after he's publicly committed to the team and been as productive as he as. Even if they didn't like what Dream's contributing to the team now, I can't imagine they'd be that anxious to get rid of all that capspace. ------------------
good point relavist, I also find myself questioning if he can really keep this up, but I guess will find out. ------------------ May I have another Snowball Clutch? Please may I? Ill be a good little mole.... I promise.
Is it THAT hard for you people to believe that Hakeem is playing so well again?!?!?! SHEESH!!! ------------------ Dream Rejects Every Attempt Made
Dream is playing awesome! I think the Rockets could make the playoffs this year if Dream keeps killing other team!. I mean 7 blocks in one game, that's awesome! ------------------ Larry Brown-"They (the Rockets) kicked our butts."
Along with our backcourt, Hakeem Olajuwon is playing solid. He has been a great rebounder, scorer and shot-blocker. If Olajuwon continues to excel at center and our guards continue to play athletic, score, rebound and play teamwork, the Houston Rockets would continue their winning streak. Olajuwon can be the boost that elevates the Rockets to the playoffs. ------------------
-------------- Playoffs- wouldn't that be nice? I think we have too much room to make up for to get into the playoffs but a good stretch run could lure a top FA in the offseason this summer. All in all I think Hakeem is of much better use to the Rockets by staying with then then by being traded. ------------------ Visit www.StockSurge.net for your guide for investing and the Stock Market!
I honestly wonder what spurred this little burst of youthfulness? Just because he decides to stay here, he decides to turn to superman. It is a great thing, but there is something very fishy about it if you ask me. We haven't seen Clutch or Doc Rocket around here lately, and that silence is fishy. If ya ask me, he is playing to impress someone. Not get us into the playoffs. I just don't see trade talks dying that easily. Unless it was never him to begin with. I just dont know. ------------------ May I have another Snowball Clutch? Please may I? Ill be a good little mole.... I promise.
doubtful, if the rockets were trying to showcase dream to other teams they would of probably played him in the 4th quarter of the sixers blowout, just to pad his stats. ------------------ http://www.democrats.com [This message has been edited by dc rock (edited February 10, 2001).]
