Great interview!
this legit
Hakeem is widely known for the accolades of the 90's, but he was an absolute beast (and much more athletic) in the mid to late 80's. The Rockets were decimated by the injury to Ralph and the drug suspensions of Lou Lloyd, Mitchell Wiggins, and John Lucas. They lost 3 starters and their 6 man from the team that crushed the Showtime Lakers. This wasted 4 years of the Dream's prime.
Also, he doesn't pick up a basketball till he's 16, then 5 years later he's the #1 pick in the draft.
LEGENDARY HAKEEM IS DEF TOP 3 CENTERS
Get a ring and you can have a spot in those rafters. Keep grinding and ignore the haters.
The DR34M! My GOAT CENTER
Imagine how outrageous Dream's stats would be today in this era! Clutch city was organic and pivotal. Etonics, leadership, teamwork, respect #34. Dream put Htown on the map!
“I am hitting him with lateral movement “ 😂😭💀
that “hitting him with lateral movement”line is a classic 😂IYKYK
This man played games fasted. Dream the goat.
Great interview you felt the genuine love
Thank you for this 🖤
Great job KD
KD post career being a media maven with an intensified focus of hoop bc he love hoop that much, will hit like Reaganomics in the 80s.
excellent interview by KD. Thank you. Hakeem is a great person as well as being a great baketball player.
THE DREAM!!!
The Dream never been any pod yet. Been waiting. Seen the one with Cade, solid also. Keep it up KD! 🔥
KD is really entertaining to listen to. He's really good at interviewing.
He actually hit us with the lateral movement 😂😂
KD is an underrated interviewer.
Durant hasn't earn that right to sit down with the dream
I need more convos like this that bridge the gap between the old school and new school. And less of whatever Klutch is doing.
Good Job KD !
Bro i got goosebumps hearing the intro – love Dream hes done so much.
Legendary!
Let the dream answer a question
If Hakeem never played a game and never scored a basket he'd still be a great man. A man of dignity and honesty. Love this guy.
