Lol at the two guys arguing in the comments! These are two of the greatest big men to have ever played the game, both carrying theyre teams in the nba and ncaa to championsips. Hakeem is hall of fame and duncan will be also. I dont get why you guys gotta argue haha
@mikenotnumber1 You are a useless piece of shit that's keeps responding for no reason except maybe you have PMS or bowel syndrome. You are not even worth a chalk outline, On your death certificate the cause of death would read 'Had it coming'
@mikenotnumber1 I never said Hakeem wasn't good. But you read what you want to a start shit on YouTube like you are going to do something else. Buddy, if I saw you on my block I would have my people break your fucking legs. Absolutely useless.
@mikenotnumber1 It was obvious to me from the first time you responded to me that you don't make any sense. Come to find out that you also like Kareem, which makes you look like more of a complete idiot.
@mikenotnumber1 Anal cavity birth, blah blah blah, it wasn't funny the first ten times you said that. SInce you are running out of fresh material, or a true argument about Hakeem to blab about, maybe it's time you wrap up these meaningless responses.
@mikenotnumber1 "bitch I'm owning you?" "Your pussy is burning?' Pay attention, you said that shit already. You don't own shit, you still haven't proven me wrong about anything. If Kareem is your number one guy, then the case against Hakeem is closed. Dummy, do you understand now? Do you understand that Kareem is better than Hakeem? Hello. wake up, argument over!! Hakeem is not and never wil be the greatest. Period. You said it, I said it. Yet you still respond to me like a jerk-off.
@mikenotnumber1 See how confused you are? You claim Kareem as your number one, and then argue against me saying that Hakeem is not the greatest ever? Sounds like the same thing to me, but I can tell you have no life so you will just vent more useless responses. Fucking nimrod, go jerk off to your doggie porn.
@mikenotnumber1 YOU need to face it. Hakeem's career is over, and he will never be thought to be the #1 NBA center ever. If you agree, then fuck off. If you disagree, then prove that statement wrong and then fuck off. You brainless chimp, why don't you prove that statement wrong? You serve no purpose in responding with your nonsense except to prove that wrong. If you respond with any more nonsense, I pray that you tumble down a 100ft razor blade and then cannonball into an alcohol pool.
@mikenotnumber1 You really are responding to me for pointless reasons. I never said he wasn't good. I said he wasn't waaaaay better than the competition he faced. Trying arguing against what I said, not what you read I said, you pointless jackass.
@mikenotnumber1 You argue in favor of Hakeem, but he is still not the greatest center to ever play the game. Prove that he is the greatest center so I know there is a point to your responses. Otherwise you are full of shit, and you will just be an angry little crab for the rest of your life.
@mikenotnumber1 Why do you keep responding? Hakeem more bad series than good. How are you destroying me when you can't prove me wrong about Hakeem not being the greatest. Hakeem is not the greatest, and that's game over.
@mikenotnumber1 Hakeem didn't dominate shit. He had four amazing years, why credit him for more than that? In your own words, You never said he was the greatest, so honestly, what the fuck is your point? You are like a nagging hooker chasing her mark down the block instead of staying on her corner.
@mikenotnumber1 I don't have to disprove what you say, cause you haven't said anything. You have said nothing in ten days. Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah!!!! I stated the Hakeem is not waaaay better and you responded to me dickhead. You haven't proved me wrong, or proved anything except you like to argue and respond to me for no reason. You angry little troll. You washed up hooker, get fucked by your pimp.
@mikenotnumber1 Running to tilte teams? So Shaq ran to the Lakers? Really? You should take the Laker logo down now cause you don't know shit. Shaq leaves the 60-22 Magic who played for a conference final for the 53-29 Lakers who couldn't get out of the first round? You are serious right? DUmbass.
@mikenotnumber1 I don't care who threw seasons, and I don't care who beat who. That's dummy talk. Talk smart. Talk entire career. Talk achievements, awards, leadership.
Talking about one game, one series is bullshit. It's dumb, stop talking like a dummy. Can you do that? Bottom line, Hakeem is not the greatest center ever. Hakeem is not waaaaay better than those other centers.
@mikenotnumber1 So you like Kareem. I see, so you twisted my words and felt possessed enough to respond. Thats how this got started. Cause you can't be that stupid to really think that Hakeem is waaaaay better than Ewing, Drob or Shaq, and Hakeem is not the greatest center in NBA history.
@mikenotnumber1 Your fave is Kareem, so why are you arguing in favor of Hakeem? I never said he wasn't good asshole, I just said he is not waaaaay better than Shaq, and some others. So what is your point? With every reply you look like a schmuck. If you are going to disagree, Disagree. You twisted what I said into what you wanted to believe I said. Maybe you should read what I've been saying and then go fuck yourself bitch.
@mikenotnumber1 You switch more often than a faggot or a tranny. The only thing I've ever said about Hakeem refers back to the first post here, he is not waaaaay better than those centers and Hakeem is not the greatest center in NBA history. most of your replies have nothing to do with Basketball!! You just curse, get mad and talk confused. Wake up, Hakeem is not the greatest. Either prove that wrong or make a point that sounds smarter than a fifth grader.
@mikenotnumber1 All you can say is 'you're fucking stupid" and other nonsense. You are full of shit one minute arguing in favor of Hakeem one minute just saying he's one of the best in the business. You are full of shit and you are loser who can't make up his mind.
@mikenotnumber1 I still don't see how Hakeem had way less help. Upsets happen all the time. The Knicks in '99 proved that superstar Ewing didn't have to be on the team for other guys to STEP UP and win games. That 'less help' argument is so weak and tired when everybody knows that you have to step your game up in the playoffs. Oh, and Hakeem missed the playoffs four times, so why bring up how rookie Shaq in '93 missed it. DUmb.
@mikenotnumber1 The only thing I've ever said about Hakeem on this thread refers back to one truth, he is not waaaaay better than Ewing, Drob or Shaq, and Hakeem is not the greatest center in NBA history. Since you never said that Hakeem is not the greatest, then what is your point? To vent? That's gay, go have a parade, fag.
@mikenotnumber1 You don't provide shit. You're a numbnut slappy bitch you talks like a scorned lover. I stated Hakeem is not the greatest and then you felt the need to reply. If you kept your mouth shut, I wouldn't even know you exist. That's the problem, you're a lonely YouTube gangster who doesn't get enough love. Angry bum take the vibrator out of your dung hole and chill out.
@mikenotnumber1 Yeah, like I said you keep going back to the same two years of Hakeems career 93-95. What about the other years? I noticed you don't even mention them for some reason. Oh yeah, cause Hakeem didn't do much those years. Oh, and thanks for changing your tune about Hakeem not being the greatest, cause he's not. Thanks for agreeing with me on what I've been saying all week, Hakeem is not the greatest.
@mikenotnumber1 1993 Shaq was a rookie and the expansion Magic were only in the league four years. How was his team better? They didn't even make the playoffs you bitch. Not in 1993. Get your facts right.
@mikenotnumber1 So if you don't think Hakeem is the greatest then what is your point in replying to me? Really, what is your point in replying to me? You have nothing better to do with your boring existence than to argue for no reason? Now you don't agree he's the greatest, so what are you debating in his favor for? You are confused, you don't know what you like. Go chase a Mr. Softee truck.
@mikenotnumber1 There isn't one NBA analyst or writer who would ever claim that Hakeem Olajuwon is the greatest center ever. He didn't accomplish enough in his career to take that claim, and he didn't have the leadership ability to motivate average talent into teammates he could trust. Kareem's teammates got better every year. Shaq's teammates got better every year. Tim Duncan's teammates got better every year. Hakeem? His teammates get injured, turn to drugs or punch fans. Fuck off Loser.
@mikenotnumber1 Losing is losing. What does getting swept have to do with anything? Come on man, make sense. Getting swept in the finals much better season than losing to mediocre first round teams. No one said Shaq or Hakeem or anybody sucked. That's your negative energy, your brain at work. All i said was Hakeem is not the greatest. You keep responding and taking issue with that. So what if Hakeem got to the finals in his second season? Does that make him the greatest? Not even close.
@mikenotnumber1 What are you stupid? This is the game of basketball not Golf. There is no handicap in basketball, you deal with the teammates that you have and motivate them to win. Period. Hakeem had a few good playoff years 3-4 tops. He didn't give his all every year, he just put up some good numbers, good highlights and went home. Stop making excuses for Hakeem.
@mikenotnumber1 You can only respond with what you feel, not with the real. You have no sense of reality talking about one game 7. That one game will never make Hakeem the greatest center ever. I understand you are too slow to know the difference between career achievement and some individual game performance. With your logic, Steve Nash would be a better point guard than John Stockton, because he got MVP's and struggled for years by himself. Stockton had help but still accomplished more.
@mikenotnumber1 Everyone must be laughing at the facts. That's great, you lonely little troll locked up in your attic, wishing you were gangster. You wish everyone felt the way you do about Hakeem, or the Lakers, or whatever you are into. Your confused. You don't understand why Hakeem can't be the greatest so you dismiss all the other great centers who are more worthy and have accomplished more greatness than Hakeem.
@mikenotnumber1 You are just another Hakeem nut hugger who thinks Hakeem did it all himself. Hakeem had the most complete defensive teams from '92-'95. Not every team needs two or three stars. You also believe Clyde and Barkely were too old on the ROckets. Dumbass, the last 5 NBA champions had an average startiing five of 32yo. 96-98 Bulls were average 33 yo. Being old is an ADVANTAGE. not an excuse. Hakeem had his opportunities to be the greatest, he's just not the greatest.
@mikenotnumber1 If Hakeem gets credit for winning, then he should take blame for losing. That's not team failure dumbass that's Hakeem's failure. Just like Lebron, Barkely's and Malone's failures. Hakeem as a leader couldn't motivate his teams to greatness, and needed sparkplugs like Sam Cassell in '94 to make the difference. Hakeem can score, but he never took a team on his back, he needed help. Look what happened before and after Cassell left the Rockets? Your so pathetic, give up already.
@mikenotnumber1 I talk basketball cause I know basketball. I'm not familiar with your queer angry Colombine murder language. Hiding behind your YouTube account trying to talk trash that you couldn't back up in person.
@mikenotnumber1 Dude you don't even make sense. You are a laughing stock with no NBA knowledge whatsoever. Refering to one game here and one game there. Try talking career achievements and maybe you might have a chance.
@mikenotnumber1 You would laugh your ass off at your own corny joke. You are your own sitcom, built in laugh track. Corny Mother Fucker you must be the most unoriginal bastard on YouTube. Go suck on some Chinese nuts. So long Gay Boy.
You are the pussy. You make Hakeem sound like a rape victim rather than a fucking professional leader of an NBA franchise. Hakeem had plenty of help stop your bitching, Pussy!! He had as many teammates with double digit scoring nights as any team. Game 7 vs Sonics he LOST. Any fool can put up amazing numbers and lose, look at Dominique. Look at Ewing!! You Fucking twerp, stop Wet Dreaming. Hakeem is not the greatest. Kareem, Shaq, even Ewing never lost 8 times in the first round. Loser.
@mikenotnumber1 Yeah!! Career!! Now you are talking. Cause Hakeem's career had just as much opportunity as Shaq, DRob, Kareem and every body else. Hakeems' problem is he could not motivate his teammates to be better. I don't dismiss shit, I acknowledge everything. Sampson didn't have injuries until his 4th season, that excuse is WEAK. Other players like Otis Thorpe and Vernon Maxwell were putting numbers just as good as Penny. Your making excuses, not making points.
@mikenotnumber1 Your were destroyed before you responded the first time. Everybody knows what happened in that 95 series. Nobody is talking about that one series jackass. That's what you don't understand. One series does not make you the best. It's about career. Hakeem's career falls short. Case closed That's what you don't get. You keep arguing the same nonsense, and talking about mothers and shit. At least respond to what I said in the first place, jerk-off.
@mikenotnumber1 You are only talking bullshit. Pointless bullshit. You are too stupid to understand the difference between one playoff series and a Hall of Fame career. Must have been real painful when your mother dropped you on your head as a baby. Brain damaged bitch.
@mikenotnumber1 Hey, lets stick to basketball, unless you are all out of reasons why Hakeem is not the best center ever. You just gave five responses that have nothing to do with facts, stats or anything. Grow up sissy, cut out the YouTube gangster crap and make a point why you prefer to fluff Hakeem so much. Useless Chode.
@mikenotnumber1 Barkley was MVP in 1993 ya ignorant bastard. Hallmarks gay greetings fired your ass for being a flaming homo who can't help but respond to my NBA facts with your nonsense. 93 MVP, you get stupider day by day, gay boy.
@mikenotnumber1 You responded to me moron remember? It's been a week since your last reach around, and you are hot to trot pounding the YouTube pavement for some new prey. Stop stealing your neighbor's Wifi from your parent's attic, and stop touching those little boys, you creep.
@mikenotnumber1 You simple minded fool, all you see is who swept who. Only a jackass sees that. I
said it before, HAKEEMS career falls short of other centers in NBA history. That is my point. What's
yours? It's about CAREER. So what if Hakeem beat Shaq, Ewing, or DRob '94 & '95? He is NOT the best ever. Hakeem SUCKED against Mark Eaton, Derrick McKey, Vlade Divac, and countless others.
Hakeem hasn't had consistent leadership ability throughout his career to justify him being the best.
@mikenotnumber1 Does Hakeem know you're his biggest fan, but not really cause you like the Lakers, but kind of, cause you are the Rockets Fluff boy? You fucking hump.
@mikenotnumber1 Anal cavity, anal conception, blah blah blah. Talk about unoriginal!! Even if I was using lines from movies at least my responses are different each time. You repeat the same angry GED type responses. Like I said. If you can't make up your mind about what you like, then you will never make sense about what your point is. You have no point. You are a rambling little troll-bitch searching for a big dick. Get a life Loser.
@mikenotnumber1 YOU responded to me you useless chode. But I get you now. Your boyfriend dumped you, so you come on to YouTube to rant about bullshit anal canal birth references? That's it sweetie, that's your whole entire life. Looking for attention like a strung out tranny. Is he tired of sword fighting a useless chode like you and looking to explore his options? Sounds just like you, a useless chode that does nothing more than respond until he has the last word. Punk.
@mikenotnumber1 You would bring up a choice of licking balls, you have so much experience licking Hakeem's, even though you claim to be a Laker cheerleader. Men's clothes? Pull your skirt down before you start talking about what you used to wear, Bitch.
@mikenotnumber1 It's easy to answer a mumbling stuttering prick like you. You answer the same way every time, angry, confused and bitter that Hakeem is not the best. Make up your mind maggot, do you like the Rockets or the Lakers? Or do you switch between both sides like a fag? Pussy.
@mikenotnumber1 When you get tired of sucking Hakeems dick, you must love sucking your own. You laugh at your own corny twat approved remarks and still don't make an intelligent point. Leading your team in those catagories, and being compared to other centers are two different thing dumbass. Two-three good playoff years doesn't make you the greatest ever dumbass. He's not the greatest, case closed. Stop sucking Hakeems dick, his cum is turning your mind into mush. Hooker.
@mikenotnumber1 Why the Spurs? I don't root for them Dumbass. You are arguing with yourself. You are getting yourself riled up with no point to make. My point is clear, Hakeem is not the best center. Maybe 5th best. Without Maxwell in '94, and Drexler in '95 Hakeem would be ringless too. Those who watched the games know the truth. You're clueless, Hakeem was like Dominique Wilkins, a highlight film with better teams. Bad enough he's a 8 time loser in the first round of the playoffs.
@mikenotnumber1 If you fathered me, I'd rather be aborted. You run around in circles flaming around calling me bitch and dweeb and can't make a decent response. First you love Hakeem, then you love Kareem. You foul-mouthed Jerry Springer fool, no one takes you serious. You run from one idea to the next. Make up your mind Richard Simmons.

@mikenotnumber1 Hakeem didn't own shit. Couldn't get out the first round nine times, what kind of ownage is that? Without Clyde in '95, Hakeem was going NO WHERE. Did you even watch the games? Leading in stats and making the difference are two different things, but your brain is to dumb to understand that.
@mikenotnumber1 Spurs? I don't root for Spurs numbnuts. You are stupid. You're a turd that even flies won't get close too. You're breath wreaks of the scent of Hakeem's nut sack. You haven't made a point yet. You make no point except that you are a YouTube wannabe tough guy. Fuckin weirdo, have some more Hakeem Ball Sack Soup. You little troll.
@mikenotnumber1 I'd like to see you make me get lost. I would. YouTube gangsters like yourself are the real pussies in public. All you do is ramble, rant curse and get angry, I bring facts. Real stats that happened. Hakeem had 1 good block, but Mad Max's 3's were the difference in 1994, so getting an older Clyde was questionable for 1995 anyway, but he was still productive. Last leg? Fuck off asshole he was only 32 yo in '95 playoffs. Stop making excuses for Hakeem, he's not that great.
@mikenotnumber1 So Kareem was 39, great, going toe to toe with a 23 yo Hakeem. You just validated my point even more numbnuts. My point is Hakeem isn't as great as you Dream-lovers make him out to be compared to the likes of Kareem. What's your point? You respond to me for stupid reasons and call me lost?? And if you are such a Kareem fan, then why would you respond to me in the first place. You were lost from the first response, dick.
@mikenotnumber1 Another meaning-less response from you. Hakeem had more complete, defensive minded teams all the way to the 12th man '93-'95. Shaq and DRob only had a couple of marketable teammates, but their defensive mindset, and stats don't really compare to the numbers that Hakeems teammates put up. 6 Rockets in double figures for the '93-'95 seasons, and Hakeem had no help?? Get your facts right, Dumbass.
@mikenotnumber1 I've mentioned Kareem on this thread since last week, and then you came out of no where and responded to me. So who cares what you are not talking about. Besides, Kareem was 38yo scoring 25ppg in the '86 playoffs and Hakeem played a little better. How is that past his prime? What did Hakeem do at 38yo? He rode the Raptors bench with 5 ppg in the playoffs. Case closed. You Hakeem nut-huggers need to loosen your grip on the Dream and get back to reality.
@mikenotnumber1 Who cares about getting punked in ONE series? I'm talking career. What Hakeem personally did against other centers, and he accomplished for his career are TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. Hakeem outplayed Kareem back in '86 playoffs, but Kareem accomplished more, and had a MUCH better career.
@spainbarcarealmadrid You can't compare what?, you can compare every position and i don't see the problem, that's how you come up with an all time ranking, that's why people think MJ is the best ever over all these great centers, by the way SHAQ > kobe
@spainbarcarealmadrid well Duncan is really a PF in name only. You can easily compare Duncan to any center because hes 7 Foot and has the game of a center. The only reason he ever even started playing PF is because the Spurs still had David Robinson. It was basically 2 centers playing at once
@Adama82 If you put Tim Duncan in Kevin Garnett's place - by putting Tim Duncan with the Wolves and Garnett with the Spurs. Tim Duncan wouldn't had 4 championships by now. Maybe one at least but not 4. The reason why Tim Duncan won his 4 titles is because he had better support cast players around him and a great coach like Popovich. He was the main part of the reason why the Spurs won the 4 titles but he couldn't do it with out his coach and good role players around him.
i love how people say bill russel could have stop him but forget that wilt avg against him about 40 points a game,why people wont give wilt his respect?that guy scored 100 points
@SunMan6A6,Wilt played in a weak era.Look at how many Short guys played him?About a foot shorter than him. The moves Chamberlain did was what every basic center does.Olajuwon would eat both Russel and wilt up.Defensively and Offensively.I still admit though that 100 points is impresive but in this age and time,he wouldn't even get 1/2 of those poinst and half of those rebounds.
@SunMan6A6,they were more guys that were WAY smaller than him incomparison. Majority of them were like 6 foot 7 to 6 foot 10.Actually pretty tiny incomparison to him.I Personally know how hard it is playing someone taller than you by 4-5 inches.Lets not talk about how much they weighed incomparison.LOL
There is no center as skilled as Olajuwon was.He dominated both ends of the floor.
@EmperorJBO russell was considered by many to be the best defensive big man of all time,yet wilt scored over 40 points on his ass,wilt never struggled against him bro
@SunMan6A6,Olajuwon would destroy Rusell.No questions asked.Unlike Wilt,Olajuwon had over 3000 post moves.Quick and agile as well for someone his size.Olajuwon can use power too just like Wilt did on him.The Dream had a great jumpshot.He would do far worse than what Wilt did to him.
wtf is all this arguement over size and bull shit tim duncan is just a hybrid player who can play to positions and olajuwon might be a lil shorter than he is listed and there both great players
you could throw in anybody and hakeem would outshow em. the only player in history who could probably have stopped hakeem is MAAYBE bill russell but to me hakeem was the greatest big man of all time
bill russel could defend him any day but i have to agree with you bill russel and hakeem are the greatest big man of all time but i still think duncan is the best pf of all time
@EmperorJBO lol jokes on you charles barkley admited duncan was better then him in a video and in a recent nba poll duncan had 64% of the votes over garnett malone and barkley
@xbobthejokerx,Duncan would get dominated in the 80's-90's era.He wouldn't even make the 1st-2nd nba all team.Trust me,Duncan dominated in a weak era.Thats why I would take Barkely and Malone over him.Hell I'll take Mchale over him.
Yeah Barkley also said the Cavaliers are going to win this year.LOL
Duncan is one of the greatest powerforwards of all time but NOT the greatest.Barkley and Malone played in the Jordan era.Duncan wouldn't even get 1 ring if he played during that 80-90's era.
@EmperorJBO lebron,d wade,carmelo,iverson,yao,dirk,garnett,pierce.kobe,shaq,nash,stuadimire,gasol enougjh said about this. NBA right now is not weak its at its peack mate
Lebron needs the ref's to save his ass. Look at how many fouls they call against the defender guarding him ESPECIALLY when he drives into the lanes.
Get out here with Pierce,Shaq,Yao,and Iverson.Iverson is no longer relevant.Pierce garbage.Shaq definately needs to quit.Hell maybe you should add T-mac on the list.I was being sarcastic.
How many great centers do we have in the game today?
@EmperorJBO Sir dwight isn't a great center. Nice guy and all, but no where near great. he's very one dimensional and once you take away his opportunites to dunk and that lil hook shot, if you wanna call it a hook shot, he has nothing..... If he developed some kind of mid range he'd be very nice.
@uzzy909 way better than davod and patrick indeed, but shaquille was too youg when the played against each other... he developed so much, he was amazing too..
I don't know...Shaq in early 2000s was really a monster. Every team of the league which wanted to win something had as first thought: "How we can stop Shaq?"
@SmoothMM It's not about proof, it's a fact that argues against Hakeem being 'waaaaaay' better than all those centers. Shaq, Ewing and Robinson spent almost every year of their career going DEEP into the playoffs. Hakeem put up some nice stats, and had some cool highlights, but he had only 2-3 good playoff runs and was not 'waaaaay' better than those guys.
@aboverim You're comparing individual greatness to a team effort. That doesn't mean Hakeem wasn't a better player than them (I wouldn't say he was "waaaaay" better but he was better.) It's not Hakeem's fault that the team didn't always play well for his 17-year career (same with the other guys' careers). It's basketball: teams have highs and lows. With the complete skill set offensively, defensively, IQ wise, and cooperative play, Hakeem was better. And he had more than "2-3" good runs.
@aboverim Personally, I would choose Hakeem over any NBA center to have played the game thus far. Who do you think should get the acknowledgement for best NBA center?
@SmoothMM Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the best ever. More accomplishments, awards, points scored, amazing playoff career. Russell second, 11 rings great rebounder, defender and on court coach/motivator. Shaq and Wilt are tied for third for their dominance, and scoring ability. Hakeem is fifth best for his highlights and defense.
@Caine I could have sworn during the all-star game (though im not sure which year was it maybe 2002) when all the stars were lined-up standing in line.The camera passed along right in front of their faces with each of them on the west allstar team and Dirk, Garnet and Duncan was standing right next to each other. Dirk(middle) was exactly an inch taller than the two while both KG and Duncan stood the same height with duncan slouching a bit.
HAKEEM WAS 6'10". To prove what Sampson wanted to do, in his 3rd year he said he wanted to be the first 7 foot point guard. He didn't have the stomach to be a center. Hakeem did. They mostly matched up HAKEEM with the centers and had Ralph play the wing. Look it up.
Oh ya dumb kiddos Hakeem was 6'10". Even HE admitted that he was 6'10" because the NBA and his Fleer cards (at the time listed him at 7 feet. If you were old enough to watch him stand next to Ewing (7ft) Robinson or Shaq (7'1"), you'd see that they TOWERED over Olajuwon. He was better than all 3, but still FAR shorter. Thanks for playing...
Chug,he is still just under 6'11",but over 6'10"-and i think it's pretty stupid to say players 1-2 inches taller can TOWER OVER Dream........besides,Olajuwon was 20 pounds more muscle than David,Ewing-definitely stronger,even if he doesn't look it-Olajuwon was 265 rock hard
Hakeem in prime destroyed every great centerthere was. Shaq, Robinson, Tim Duncan, Ewing. It wasn't even remotely close. he would just like flat out own them.
Van gundy is an idiot. Duncan is a center masquerading as a power forward. Van gundy said the game shaq played against la was the best he's ever sen him play. Dude is a bad source to quote. I'm sure most 'experts would qualify duncan as a center. A 7 footer 250 lbs who plays defense in the middle of the floor meets the classic definition of center.He played alongside drob for years, only reason he's called a pf.
Your sorta right and sorta wrong. While physical attributes USUALLY make the position, they are always the players SKILL SET that really makes them the position. Cases in point, barkely 6";4 , great PF, lebron SF but his move set is more like PG/SF. Kevin garnet, 6;11 but his abilities are more PF than C. Magic, who physically can be any position, but his skills and mind worked like a PG.
Lol at the two guys arguing in the comments! These are two of the greatest big men to have ever played the game, both carrying theyre teams in the nba and ncaa to championsips. Hakeem is hall of fame and duncan will be also. I dont get why you guys gotta argue haha

@mikenotnumber1 There isn't one NBA analyst or writer who would ever claim that Hakeem Olajuwon is the greatest center ever. He didn't accomplish enough in his career to take that claim, and he didn't have the leadership ability to motivate average talent into teammates he could trust. Kareem's teammates got better every year. Shaq's teammates got better every year. Tim Duncan's teammates got better every year. Hakeem? His teammates get injured, turn to drugs or punch fans.

@mikenotnumber1 You can only respond with what you feel, not with the real. You have no sense of reality talking about one game 7. That one game will never make Hakeem the greatest center ever.

Being old is an ADVANTAGE. not an excuse. Hakeem had his opportunities to be the greatest, he's just not the greatest.

@mikenotnumber1 If Hakeem gets credit for winning, then he should take blame for losing. That's not team failure dumbass that's Hakeem's failure. Just like Lebron, Barkely's and Malone's failures. Hakeem as a leader couldn't motivate his teams to greatness, and needed sparkplugs like Sam Cassell in '94 to make the difference. Hakeem can score, but he never took a team on his back, he needed help. Look what happened before and after Cassell left the Rockets? Your so pathetic, give up already.

I don't know...Shaq in early 2000s was really a monster. Every team of the league which wanted to win something had as first thought: "How we can stop Shaq?"

Hakeem dominated in a far greater era for Centers.

@uzzy909 I think saying Hakeem was WAY better....is definitely a stretch. Only a Hakeem mark would say that
williwo 7 months ago
@uzzy909 How is that possible? Hakeem in the playoffs has 9 career first round losses. Robinson and Ewing only have 4 each. Shaq has 3.

@aboverim How does that prove that Hakeem wasn't better than Shaq, Robinson or Ewing?
SmoothMM 7 months ago
@SmoothMM It's not about proof, it's a fact that argues against Hakeem being 'waaaaaay' better than all those centers. Shaq, Ewing and Robinson spent almost every year of their career going DEEP into the playoffs. Hakeem put up some nice stats, and had some cool highlights, but he had only 2-3 good playoff runs and was not 'waaaaay' better than those guys.
aboverim 7 months ago
@aboverim You're comparing individual greatness to a team effort. That doesn't mean Hakeem wasn't a better player than them (I wouldn't say he was "waaaaay" better but he was better.) It's not Hakeem's fault that the team didn't always play well for his 17-year career (same with the other guys' careers). It's basketball: teams have highs and lows. With the complete skill set offensively, defensively, IQ wise, and cooperative play, Hakeem was better. And he had more than "2-3" good runs.
SmoothMM 7 months ago
@aboverim Personally, I would choose Hakeem over any NBA center to have played the game thus far. Who do you think should get the acknowledgement for best NBA center?
SmoothMM 7 months ago
@SmoothMM Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the best ever. More accomplishments, awards, points scored, amazing playoff career. Russell second, 11 rings great rebounder, defender and on court coach/motivator. Shaq and Wilt are tied for third for their dominance, and scoring ability. Hakeem is fifth best for his highlights and defense.

u have to believe most super star players are shorter than what is on their profile.
As I know, Jordan, Barkley, Kobe.....all shorter than 6'6.
I guess those 7'1 are really 7'.
jimmychuang 2 years ago
Your a fool. Jordan & Kobe are legit 6'6.
Barkley is about 6'6 which is short for a Power Forward so they listed him at 6'7.
KG and Tim Duncan are listed at 6'11, both are 7'0, but since they don't play the "Center" position they list them a bit shorter.
Some guys are listed accurately some aren't.
John Starks was listed 6'5, but when he stood next to Jordan or Allan Houston they towered over him. He was 6'3.
Same with Nate Robinson, he's 5'7 but listed at 5'9.
Caine775 2 years ago
Barkley listed 6'6 actually. Some reports also claim Barkley shorter than 6'6.
I know you looks like know a lot of these stuffs, but what you say are not official, and some makes no sense.
Because KG not a center so listed shorter? What is that?
Because Starks stood next to Jordan so 6'5?
Did NBA have any clue that Starks would be main player defense MJ? Hell no, its nothing about MJ.
Also as I know 16 yrs ago, John Starks is 6'3.
Players listed taller because stand next to MJ? low IQ!

@Caine I could have sworn during the all-star game (though im not sure which year was it maybe 2002) when all the stars were lined-up standing in line.The camera passed along right in front of their faces with each of them on the west allstar team and Dirk, Garnet and Duncan was standing right next to each other. Dirk(middle) was exactly an inch taller than the two while both KG and Duncan stood the same height with duncan slouching a bit.

thats because in the nba compute the extra height of the shoes, hakeem was really 6`11 plus 1´ for shoes

HAKEEM WAS 6'10". To prove what Sampson wanted to do, in his 3rd year he said he wanted to be the first 7 foot point guard. He didn't have the stomach to be a center. Hakeem did. They mostly matched up HAKEEM with the centers and had Ralph play the wing. Look it up.

Oh ya dumb kiddos Hakeem was 6'10". Even HE admitted that he was 6'10" because the NBA and his Fleer cards (at the time listed him at 7 feet. If you were old enough to watch him stand next to Ewing (7ft) Robinson or Shaq (7'1"), you'd see that they TOWERED over Olajuwon. He was better than all 3, but still FAR shorter. Thanks for playing...

Chug,he is still just under 6'11",but over 6'10"-and i think it's pretty stupid to say players 1-2 inches taller can TOWER OVER Dream........besides,Olajuwon was 20 pounds more muscle than David,Ewing-definitely stronger,even if he doesn't look it-Olajuwon was 265 rock hard

Hakeem was a natural center, not a forward. Houston went with Hakeem at 6'11 and Sampson at 7'4.

Even though Hakeem was shorter than Sampson by 4 inches he was the center and Sampson was the power forward.

duncan is actually a center playing PF (so he cuold play with david robinson).
nowadays he plays at center with a smaller man at pf, after robinson retired.

Van gundy is an idiot. Duncan is a center masquerading as a power forward. Van gundy said the game shaq played against la was the best he's ever sen him play. Dude is a bad source to quote. I'm sure most 'experts would qualify duncan as a center. A 7 footer 250 lbs who plays defense in the middle of the floor meets the classic definition of center.He played alongside drob for years, only reason he's called a pf.
loepower 2 years ago
Your sorta right and sorta wrong. While physical attributes USUALLY make the position, they are always the players SKILL SET that really makes them the position. Cases in point, barkely 6";4 , great PF, lebron SF but his move set is more like PG/SF. Kevin garnet, 6;11 but his abilities are more PF than C. Magic, who physically can be any position, but his skills and mind worked like a PG.
