Hakeem was so ahead of his time... That spin move that he hit Ewing with (that had Sam Cassell going crazy on the bench) was absolutely insane for a big man.. Even Starks and Mason look totally bewildered 😂.. What a player
TIMESTAMP PLS
Most underrated NBA superstar of all time. Everyone talks about Stockton's assists record and how it will be hard to break it but never about Hakeem's blocks record and that is the record that no one is ever breaking.
The record Wilt Chamberlain would‘ve had. Only his last 173 games in the league alone he averaged 8 blocks a game.
Idk. Wemby could break that record, not easily I would say but he averaged around 3.5 blocks a game in only around 29mpg. If he plays for a consistent 12-15 years & plays enough games with good health, he can challenge that record & he's the only one
@frizzyrascal1493 Wilt has a special place
But Hakeem's Block record after the invention of the 3 point line makes it extra special.
This is because players were starting to shoot further away from the basket. Even midrange shots started to get closer to the 3 point line because another option was available to players if they wanted the 3.
Farther away means less opportunity especially for centers to block perimeter players shots
Today's game, the 3 is out of control and the balance seems off though.
@@peterguidry6084 That is a good argument, the game obviously changed, however the three point line wasn’t used that much back in the 90’s. The game was still heavily centered around layups and good open mid-range shots.
Hakeem is probably my third favorite center of all time, just because of his play style and the fluidity of his moves. Can’t put him above Kareem or Wilt however.
All those post moves, and his last title run ended with a 3 in shaqs face. Legendary.
Greatest center of all time
Facts🔥
I concur
I’ve always said i’d take him over shaq
@@Thewowcoolclub me too
He's in the discussion
My favorite center of all time! Hakeem!!! 💪💪💪
Hakeem is the Greatest center of all time and a top 5 player of all time in my opinion.
And he only picked up basketball at 16, what a player!
They won't see that since a lot of people will always bring up championships when it comes to the legacy of a great player.
@@caoimhinyt9765 then if that's the case ai chuck & melo are not some of the greatest players to ever live. The difference is Hakeem actually carried a team to a chip, only solo all star to ever do so! Twice!
@@rahim9nineHorry wasn't an all star? Drexler wasn't?
@@princeagyapong8419 robert horry an allstar? Clyde drexler wasn't an all star in 95 when he won a chip with Hakeem.
Man hakeem my goat center bro, i swear to god, he had everything
Olajuwon was a smooth operator also he played soccer
you right the NBA media never talk about all time block record that Hakeem holding
GOAT center
If I'm picking my all time starting 5 them Hakeem is certainly my center
@@simonforrest2522me too
The best of Wilt, Shaq, Russel, Jabbar and Olajuwon is The Dream, but people always put him at #5 lmao
he was such a goat center man, his footwork is a master class. I think more young players should take lesson from him
Don't ever underestimate the heart of a champion!
He was so smooth...😀😃😄🤠👏👏👏
The summit was so special to the Houston Rockets and the city.
I still cannot believe it is now Lakewood Church❤
The 93-94 & 94-95 Rockets would have destroyed MJ.
I believe so in one of them.
He was 5-1 in the early 90s vs Jordan bulls.
Well might have beaten him…..
Greatest center of all time!! Did everything and didn’t have a flaw in his game at all. His mid range game was ridiculous and he even hit the 3 ball when it mattered 😂😂😂
I have Hakeem over Shaq personally 😭
I was in the building. The Dream embarrassed Shaq and shot Orlando
Ewing couldn't stop Olajuwon in the 94 NBA Finals. Shaq couldn't either in the 95 NBA Finals. Olajuwon was legendary in those years.
pretty jump shot \ post moves
39:51 one of the biggest choke moments of all time
I think it’s #1 cause he had 4 chances and missed all 4. 🤯🤯🤯
When you watch too much present nba, and expect a foul to be called after almost every play
w and Amen
Him and Shaq are easily the greatest centers of all time.
As well as Wilt and Kareem
@@simonforrest2522 nah.
Future Lively🎉
We need Larry Bird next 🍀
Hakeem Olajuwon got his style from Bill Walton and Kareem Abdul Jabbar.
Moses Malone
@@mrskinszszs He definitely emulated him early on.
@mrskinszszs Moses taught him the art of being a Center but the footwork is all him.. From his footballing background in Nigeria
@@simonforrest2522 yes I know. I'm just saying if anyone helped his development it was Moses. Everything else is all Hakeem
Exactly, and speaking of Moses his role in Hakeem and Barkley career is wonderful.
Best regards.
he did because he had Kenny bringing him water
Nick Anderson mega choke
Because he was that great, but his prime is not long because of injury problems.
Hakeem had a ten year prime 1986-1996. Not bad.
It was the other half of the twin towers that caught the injuries
Look at all those unathletic plumbers... Modern fans live on RUclips yet it seems like they havent spent an hour looking at older basketball. Everybody talking how Jordan would be averaging 40 but how about Hakeem? If Jokic is scoring such much yet is so much slower, so much less explosive and less strength, just how much would Hakeem score today? Who is stopping him? And dont get me that 3point nonsense, Jokic's points are majority from midrange, post and putbacks. You'd have to double him whole game. 5:58 just show me one play like this today, just show me a center today who can go for closeout then recover in such speed and then make monster block.
