    but still,

    Hakeem > tinman

    not sure what that means since Hakeem is greater than Chuck Norris, too.

    Anyone that keeps putting Dream as a PF in any fantasy/all star thread should be required to watch the first 7 minutes of that video. He was and always will be a center.

    this is a related video, his halftime speech when they revealed the statue and his jersey with the "HOF 08" below.

    I'll always remember this game, also because I was there in the stands.

    "My goal was not be an all star or hall of famer, but to control the middle.."

    Finally, thanks Tinman. I think many people were still looking for the full video even last year.

    A few notes:
    - Still humble as ever
    - Interesting he says Rudy T gave him room to freelance :D
    - The famous announcer / sportsguy he thanked for giving him
    the nickname 'The Dream', didn't know that! what's his name again ?
    - Didn't thanks his wife, thought that was interesting..
    - Leslie is a scary cold man, doesn't even smile or anything when
    Hakeem talks about him, kind of looks like Mr. Burns from the Simpsons

    I liked how he gave credit to Moses Malone,
    another Rocket Hall of Famer and MVP.
