I, for one, actually think that would be pretty cool to see Hakeem, Barkley and Jordan all on the same team. If we cant resign Hakeem for what he wants, I wouldnt mind him going there. As long as we pick up good players in the draft, resign our FAs, and pick up some players in free agency (ie. Marc Jackson, Nazr Mohammed), we will be set for the playoffs. One thing is certain, we will definitely need to pick up a decent center one way or another. ------------------ "I would like to live forever, because we should not live forever, because if we were ever supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever." -Miss Alabama in the 1994 Miss Universe contest
I assume you don't like Barkley, but don't put words in Dream's mouth. Dream has commented numerous times that he liked playing with Barkley. If he didn't like playing with Barkley the Rockets wouldn't have signed him. As for Barkley not letting anyone hit a game winning shot, I could be wrong, but didn't Matt Maloney, Eddie Johnson, Cuttino Mobley and countless other players hit game winning shots with Charles on the team!? I'm assuming you watched those games when Rudy drew up plays and Cuttino hit a game winning shot against Golden State. Or when EJ hit a shot against Utah in the WCF. Or when Maloney destroyed Seattle. If you don't like a player, don't throw out revisionist history. That would be like me not like Dream and saying "I remember when Dream hogged the ball and cost us the game down the stretch. He did that all the time!" Obviously that's not true. ------------------ "I'm not here to protect my reputation, I'm here to make my reputation!

I read that thread. Where does he say ESPN took anything from this site? ------------------ "Light travels faster than sound, so some people appear to be bright until you hear them speak." -- Brian Williams (now Bison Dele) commenting on Isiah Thomas.
In the lastest 610 radio interview with Hakeem, he mentioned being "intrigued" by the possibility of joining Jordan and the Wizards. Ummmmmm, Okay. I'm intrigued by the possibility of having sex with Morgan Fairchild (or any of several playboy bunnies). That and a cup of coffee means jack. I swear to god our radio stations aren't worth ****! My immediate response to hearing this was.... REALLY! As if we haven't been discussing this on the BBS for weeks now. Wow, what an illuminating newsflash! Ugh, Duh! Whatever! ROCKET!!! ------------------

ZRB Give me a break. Typos happen....especially in my emails. Clearly, Hakeem Olajuwon or is it Hock'em A-Large-One? Phituweeeeee....... Joke, nothing intended towards the great one. ------------------
Just making sure. I bothers me when Rocket fans can't spell Olajiwan's name right. They should show more respect to Hackeem. ------------------ "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning how to put food on their family while being put to death." It's back... Protrolls.com!
