    PS... Hakeem played for 17 years for the Rocket and took them to 2 championships, and 3 NBA Finals.. Don't try to compare him with unworthy players

    You dummy, if he was here for 17 years, he should have won 17 championships. If you didn't lift the trophy, your season sucked.

    He went to 3 finals, and won two championships. You know what 3 finals and two championships mean? It means he won two championships. There you go again with second place bull**** again.

    LOL. Tinman making stupid pointless threads again. Was the Rockets fanbase all happy and giddy between the years of 1988-1992? No, right? Maybe you weren't around then. From 1993-1995, it was good times.

    Stop being an idiot. I NEVER compared T-Mac and Hakeem as a player. Grow a brain for once.

    Should have won 17 MVPs then.

    Yeah, and apparently it sucks because we couldn't get past the first round a total of 7 seasons when Hakeem was here, and missed it altogether another 3 for a total of 10. I mean, we SHOULD'VE gotten to the semis all 17 years right?

    Should I be happy we lost in the first round when we had Hakeem? I thought it sucked. I hated losing to the Lakers and Sonics, and somebody else I can't remember.

    Were there no frustrations when they didn't make it out of the first round from 1998 to 2008? I was frustrated with Tracy and Yao for not getting out of the first round.


    Does it suck when the Longhorns lose to Iowa State and Baylor the last couple of seasons? That's never a fun feeling, I'm sure.

    What does that make you? A clown. You call yourself tinman beause there's something lacking in your chest. Something T-Mac at the very least showed that night in December 2004.

    WERE YOU HAPPY OR MAD AT DURING THE HAKEEM ERA?

    Go ahead and post lyrics to some whack rap song. Embed some video from wu tang or something.


    Better yet, go embed some Getting Jiggy with it. Or Summer Time, or Men in Black or Wild Wild West.

    Are you saying it's okay for Texas to lose to Baylor, as it's okay for the Rockets to lose in the first round back in the day?

    I'm sure it's not.

    Dream was great and for couple of seasons he was the greatest player I have ever seen play the game, even better than Jordan. Although I consider Jordan the greatest player of all time.

    All of that being said, Rocket fans should be very happy to have Howard and Harden. They will never be Dream, but they are some of the greatest players in the game today.
