Teddy kgb Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 HakeemHe was so awesome....think about this, you have the greatest NBA player of all-time in MJ and you don’t here a peep that Hakeem was drafted ahead of him, that’s how good he was... All I ever heard was Bowie v Jordan to the point I lost a bar bet saying Bowie went 1 and Jordan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy kgb Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 People talk about Kareem’s skyhook being ungardable (wish I could spell) but Hakeem’s turn around fade away was automatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milwaukee mike Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 olajuwon was one of the greatest players i've ever seen so underrated and under mentioned on lists of all-time greats... perhaps because he's muslim? good role model too (from what i know which isn't always much), his signature shoes were $35 and he's been married over 20 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was he better than Russell, Wilt, or Jabbar? You can make a case for being better than one of them, but not all three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
