Hakeem Olajuwon Dismantles David Robinson and the Spurs (1995 WCF Game 5)

http://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/199505300SAS.html

Hakeem had 42 points as the Rockets ripped the Spurs to help the Rockets take game 5. David Robinson had no way of stopping Hakeem. Most of this series Hakeem was doing his damage in the paint. In this game Hakeem was striking with jumpshots. Sam Cassell came off the bench and had a huge game. The Dream was the REAL MVP of the season, as this series has proven. Thought I would celebrate my one year anniversary on youtube with a rare but spectacular performance.

best center to ever play the game

[TheNimasreb]

dream's advantage over the wilt's, russell's, jabbar's and shaq's is his unlimited range. only centers that have pretty good range are the admiral, ewing, rik smits, sikma and yao ming. and the dream can destroy any of these centers any time. russell may had the most number of rings, wilt had the stats, jabbar possessed the greatest shot of all time, shaq maybe the most beloved center of all time due to his antics, but talent for talent, dream is numero uno. the best center of all time.

today in the nba a lot of players want to put a shot in your face.....make a scene and talk shit at you and stare at you then talk about it on twitter.

@shazzzam37 dont come here and try to downplay hakeem. saying every dog has its day, now thats just straight up disrespectful.

3:02 sky hook posterization

I have to say Olajuwon played a good series however, if you look at any of these clips you never see Olajuwon do anything under the rim. Everything he did was hook shots and jump shots. Olajuwon just made his shots he did not dismantle Robinson because he made his shots.... had he gone to the rim at all he would have been dominated by Robinson. Hakeem's shot was on thats it every dog has its day.
