Marcin Gortat and Garret Siler learn from Hakeem Olajuwon

Uh... you just figured that out? Wtf? That's like someone posting, "Holy cow, have you guys seen this Hakeem Ola....Oli.....Oluwon guy? He's really good!"

Anyways, I think Gortat is too old to really benefit significantly from Hakeem's tutelage unlike his former teammate Dwight who was young enough in his game to be able to incorporate the tips.

 

I see, so the cutoff line for someone to new post moves is 25 years old, because Gortat is only one and half year older than Howard

 

pretty much, past that the players are set in their ways and they are who they will be throughout their careers. for instance, if you're not a star by 25, it's extremely doubtful you will be in the future. sure, it happens, but it's rare, especially in comparison to players who breakout pre-25. on that note, lowry and brooks were just around the 25 line when they broke out. twill better hurry up.

 

and Dwight Howard has not learned yet how to get 2 rings. . Maybe the dream is not sincerely them

 

Actually the human brain is still able to learn new things up until 30 years old. If you're below 30 your brain is still young enough to learn things normally.

Being "set in your ways" really is just about overcoming muscle memory, and anyone can relearn something by continuous practice. Its not that players can't learn new things, they just don't want to anymore. If you've been doing a jumpshot a certain way for the last 8 years, not a lot of people would put in the effort to redesign their mechanics so they shoot a higher percentage.

 

Why are you a bitter human being?

 

I love Hakeem. Wish they would put this on YouTube like the Dwight Howard one.

Hopefully Gortat can use this stuff. Howard's footwork is still too crappy for Hakeem's ultra-advanced plus moves.
