the rockets could have had hakeem and michael jordan in the same draft. i know it's random, but saw something about it on twitter that made me think back
 
Details ? 8o

Those three on the same roster seems like a fairy tale, but according to Olajuwon, it very well could've happened. In his book "Living the Dream", he claimed that in 1984, the Portland Trail Blazers offered the Rockets the No. 2 overall pick in the draft as well as Drexler for star center Ralph Sampson.

The Rockets passed on the deal and kept Sampson to form a "Twin Towers" with Olajuwon, who was selected by Houston with the top pick in the '84 draft. Portland chose Sam Bowie second overall and Jordan wound up going to the Chicago Bulls third.

But what if the Rockets didn't turn down the deal and used that No. 2 pick to draft Jordan? The NBA's landscape would have changed dramatically. That's what would have happened.

Let's say the "Big Three" of "Air Jordan", "Hakeem The Dream", and "Clyde the Glide" stay together in Houston from 1984 up until 1998. How many rings do they collect? The Rockets likely become a dynasty, winning at least 10 titles in 14 years.
 
You need to already have a reliable #1 option to get the best out of love, hes better off as the sidekick than the man if you want to be a contender
 
Cavs gonna get love without giving up wiggins. watch
If the Cavs were the Lakers, i'd believe that. The Lakers always had that luck :lol

Minnesota has until February to move Love. After that its over and they get nothing back for him unless it's a sign & trade. They should take what they can get now or at the deadline

Yup. And the trade will probably be with an Eastern Conference team so they don't assist anyone in the West.
