    Out of curiosity, what do the Raptors think of Dream? Anyone know?

    He refound Allah, made his heart pure. Dont you love attaching storylines to sports events?


    I guess Hakeem going the Raptors is analogous to shipping off Han Solo's ass in frozen carbonite.

    I am not a sports fan. I am a basketball fan, and more specifically still, a Rockets fan. There is a reason for this. His name is Hakeem Olajuwon.

    I have always thought that to be a child whose father had season tickets to the Rockets during the era of Hakeem must be an awful lot like growing up with tickets to the symphony in Vienna in the late 1700's and early 1800's. Who can see Beethoven perform in person and not learn to love music?

    All I'm telling you is they're only men.Dream didn't have the best of reps from teammates prior to 93, thats a fact. He matured and came out on the other side. People viewed dream as a angry african with all the fights and visible displeasure of playing with crappy players. It hapened and it doesn't make me think any less of dream.
