Jamani tumpe hongera Hasheem hapa kwa kusaidi future generation. Hata ukiangalia vizuri yeye hafanyi vizuri kwenye ligi sasa hivi kwa sababu hakupata bahati ya kuwa na resource zote zinazomjenga mchezaji kuanzia akiwa mdogo. Ameanza na miaka 15. Kumbuka yeye alisema hata raba ilikuwa ngumu kupata viwanja vibovu pia si vyakutosha. Wakati wenzake kutoka Europe, na waafrika waliotoka France, Beligium, n.k walianza wikiwa wadogo na resurces kibao viwanja vya kisasa, raba, mipira sio shida sana, mashindano ya kueleweka ya ligi za huko.
ReplyDeleteNadhani imefika wakati tumsifie huyu kijana, sio kumponda kila kukicha watanzania. Unafanya vizuri Hasheem. Endelea hivyo hivyo. Unfanya impact kubwa sana off the field.
Watanzania wakumbuke kwamba basketball sio kwenye gemu tu, pia ata huduma za jamii na kujitolea na kuchangia.
Ila pia jitahidi kidogo kwenye field pia. Jaribu kubalance summer time kwa ajili ya kujifua. Mie najua watu wankudharau sana kwenye field kwa ajili ya lebel uliyopewa "bust" lakini ukijitahidi kidogo unaweza kubadilisha hayo yote. Kama vile yule Randolph wa Memphis hakuwa mzuri sana miaka yake ya mwanzoni mpaka hapa mwishoni hivi amekuwa mzuri sana.
Tupendane, ni amri ya Mungu, na tena ni amri kuu.
ReplyDeleteMtu anapigania maisha kwa nguvu na anafanikiwa then watu mnamchukia. Angepigika akawa anakuja kuwaomba misaada napo mngemchukia. Mnataka afanye nini, afe au???? Na akifa ndio hao hao mtakaojifanya mnahuzunika kupita kiasi.
Mungu aliyaona yote hayo, na anaujua udhaifu wa binadamu. Na ndio maana hakutushauri tupendane bali ALITUAMURU tupendane.
Hasheem, Mungu azidi kukubariki na kwa kweli wewe ni mtu mwema sana na mchapa kazi kweli. Unayoyafanya ni sahihi na usisikilize maneno ya mawakala wa shetani hapa duniani, simama na Mungu tu. Pia, kama alivyoshauri mchangiaji wa kwanza, kaza buti na tupe fahari na ari zaidi kwa kufanikiwa zaidi na zaidi. Kila la kheri!
Sasa Hasheem si amwalike mwenzake amtembelee USA ili aonekane basi!
