I've always been a rocket fan ever since i started watching basketball. I grew up in houston, so it only makes sense. But I always had an interest in what Deke was up to. He played the game like a football player, and i think thats what i loved the most. No nonsense, no bending, and he never broke. Until last night. ILast night signaled the end of a great basketball era. We will miss you, DEKE. If only i had known that Saturday night was the last time i would see the finger wag, i would have cherished it a lot more. Good luck to you in whatever you decide to do./ Deke walks into a bar when he first arrived in the states. without a grasp on the english language, Deke belts out "who wants to sex Mutombo?". LONG LIVE DEKE. LONG LIVE THE GREAT ONE.
