    Theres been a lot of speculation about where Hakeem might go, but seriously(forgive me for what i'm about to say!)...who in their right mind would pay 10mil for a has been center to play 20-30 minutes a game and have a 50% probability of being hurt most of the season. No team in their right mind would jump at this. Hakeem was great, he's just not who he use to be and nowhere near 10mil. What team has this much money to blow(besides portland) on such a small return, even though the return will be great on occasion. Washington? Orlando? Do they have 10mil for dream? so why is there any talk about these teams. what would be great is if we could trade dream(who obviously doesn't care about going to another team now.) for a trade pick, or package him. what do you say?

    I say we re-sign him for the lowest amount possible. 4-6 mil a year.
