    Horry played with Hakeem, Shaq and Duncan. He knows what’s up.

    Even Shaq himself gives respect to Hakeem as the one guy he couldn't dominate.

    Shaq picks Dream over himself and that’s not just him being humble… cause he’s definitely not when he doesn’t need to be.

    every year , it’s always bash the rockets championships

    @Clutch

    I was listening to mad dog radio after the Celtics loss to Miami
    And out of nowhere , the host starts bashing the rockets and saying Jordan never played those years etc
    To somehow compare the Celtics as ‘losers’

    The rockets won two titles so I don’t even know what he was talking about
    And Dream would score 70 on Jason Tatum and Al Horford

    it was so weird
    He was so mad at Boston he started bashing Hakeem

    It’s amazing how one of the classiest stars , Dream gets no respect

    Even though we know that nobody could handle 95 playoff Dream
    The dude beat Shaq in 4

    Air f*cking Jordan rides for DREAM. I mean that's a hell of an endorsement.

    Yet they don’t believe him
    Even though they aren’t nba players

    I do feel that the narrative for this makes Knicks fans feel good about themselves
    Since it’s obvious they are from New York

    It's been nearly 30 years and Knick fans still haven't recovered from Hakeem getting a finger on Starks' likely championship-winning shot.

    Nope
    Unfortunately their media darlings
    These idiots on fox sports like Broussard
    And Stephen A Smith
    Are Knicks fans and keep down playing the rockets championships

    what pisses me off the most is the disrespect to Dream

    this guy dominated both ends of the court , he won mvp and defensive player of the year in the same year

    Dream destroyed Kareem in 86
    So much greatest not mentioned and not respected

    Everyone has their narrative. Horry has rings that says his is right.

    Shaq's greatest strength was his size!!     Dream on the other hand, was an offensive/defensive 7ft ballarina who could not only impact but take over both ends of the court!! IF, IF he had the mistfortune to of play for either the Lakers or Nicks instead of the Crown Jewel of the NBA (Rockets) he would be in the GOAT convo alongside of Jordan and LeBron!! Those two media hubs pretty much dominate and dictate the NBA AGENDA!! Not saying he was/is the GOAT of the NBA, but he definetely wouldn't be direspected by the click-baiting media like this.... Dream>>>>>Shaq!!!!!

    No matter what some embiciles on ESPN or any other media oulets say, we were fortunate enough to see firsthand how special Dream was on the court and off the court! Shaq was a force, but he took a back seat whenever Dream came into town!! I digress......


    Go Rockets!!!

    i read somewhere MJ told Dream the Bulls were lucky the Rockets couldn't get passed the Sonics... a cold-blooded back handed admission from MJ, lol

    All you need to know is that no one criticizes the Rockets for drafting Hakeem instead of Jordan, even in hindsight.
