Olajuwon is the most skilled center of all time, in my opinion.

[NBA2k13CIZ]

Olajuwon > center today to Olajuwon because of Olajuwons accolades let me list them: 2 nba finals mvp 1 nba mvp 1st all time block shots 8th all time in steals (I kno shocking) Only player to win def. poty, mvp, finals mvp same season. Hall of Fame Beat: Shaq, Ewing, and Robinson(Future Centers in HOF or currentl in HOF) to win 2 NBA championships "For all the facets of the game I have to give to him(Olajuwon)"- Quoted Michael Jordan Please don't compare Pau, Dwight, or anybody to "the Dream"

[Mc Lovin]

Not only did he beat ewing and robinson. he flat out embarrassed them. Hakeem was the only center that elevated to new heights in the playoffs. Wilt, choker. russell, no offense. kareem, only performed well when he had superstars around him (magic and oscar robertson). shaq, could easily be stopped by fouling him and he'd miss the free throws. Hakeem the dream is the best center who ever played the game of basketball

[robinstigator]

One of the reasons that DREAM was so dominant was that the coaches wold emphasize to his teammates, especially the guards, that they needed to get DREAM the ball quickly. Nowadays the guards dribble and dribble and hold the ball which takes away the center's talents and attacks.

the move at 1:58, and the Rocket's bench reaction, are my favorite!!!

[Oscarwindycity]

He's got the fanciest move ever

[Angel Varela Faroppa]

best center all times!

[Thipeeshan Bala]

Man, i wish i grew up watching Hakeem. The big men in this league are nothing compared to him!

[FrankiePro25]

this guy would make a crazy point guard

[Ray Rod]

Ewing, Robinson, Shaq, Mutombo were very good... but Olajuwon was just so much better...

[Vaasu97]

true, Olajuwon is better in the post, but KD I think has better foot work, he just broke a guys ankles, lol. he doesn't attack the rim as good as Olajuwon tho

[M Unzueta]

A very close comparison, with hakeem only around 25 pounds heavier & one inch taller but KD is more of stand up shooter then a low post like Hakeem, also Hakeem has a little better foot work.
