Sampson, Olajuwon vs. Lakers - 1986 WCF (Sampson's Miracle shot)
Loading...
Uploaded by fatal9ish on Dec 13, 2009
1986 WCF, Game 5.
Lakers dominated early but Olajuwon exploded in the third quarter. He had 17 points in that period alone. Then Sampson closed out the game/series with a couple of clutch baskets, including the famous miracle game winner.
One of the greatest and most exciting games in NBA history, even with 10 minutes of highlights, there were still many I had to leave out. Highlights of Magic and Kareem are also included.

Love to see the Lakers go down in the forum in front of all of their phony fans.

@BigTimePride Akeem wasn't quite in his prime. He was in his prime during the Rockets back to back years in which he won an MVP in 93 or 94. Akeem is right up there with Kareem, plus he played with much less talented players, with the exception of the championship Kareem won with the Bucks.

maybe it's the shorts, but these guys seem to have awfully long legs

1. Kareem at 39 was still dealing death.
2. I wonder how great a player Sampson would have been if his knees didn't end his career?
-
Being a Celtics fan I have great respect for the 80s Lakers, but it's a good thing they lost this series or the Celtics would've destroyed them. Boston was unbelieveable in 86.
Note...Jabbar way past his prime and dominating against a prime Hakeem. Just goes to show how great he was.
-
I still can't believe the Lakers got dominated by two Big Men, they must of not of known how dominant Sampson and Olajuwon could be.
-
Kareem was almost 40 years old here. What a beast.

@FuShengAlex Actually, I think the 1986 finals featured a better overall frontcourt. :)
Walton, Dream, Ralph, McHale, Parish.

And great post up moves by Kareem, Hakeem and Ralph. Incredible that Jabbar could maintain playing well at such a fast paced level at an advanced age.
Look at Ralph on the baseline vs. Jabbar at 00:17. Jabbar at 1:03. And Hakeem at 2:42. Three dominating big men all playing well in the same game!!! You will NEVER see frontcourt greatness in a single game/playoff series like this again in NBA history as long as you live.
