He did that shit every damned night! The Diggity Damn DREAM!
Hakeem had the defensive prowess of Bill Russel and yet was more skilled offensively than Duncan. Not only was he likely the best defensive center to every play, but he was the most skilled offensive center as well. There were two or three others who were as dominant offensively (Kareem and Shaq), but they weren’t as good defensively.
And he has the coolest name ever!
What are you guys smoking? Was something added to the weed in Colorado recently?
Give me Shaq and Kareem all day over Olajuwon.
Agreeded. Seriously if you would take Shaq over Dream then you seriously dont get the game. In the best eras ever for centers he was dominant. His peers were names like Ewing, Shaq, Deke, the Admiral, Zo and to a lesser degree Daugherty. And he bested them all head to head.
Indeed. Whether or not Hakeem would make my Rushmore because of how many greats are actually in the league Olajuwon was one of the most versatile centers i had ever seen. I knew he and the Rockets would end up beating the Magic despite all the hype following Shaq and company that year. As dominant as Shaq was in the paint he wasnt as versatile as Hakeem was both inside and outside the paint.
I've finally selected my NBA franchise to root for.
Dummy!
