    Man, Hakeem was so damn good. I love the #2 play in his top 10.

    The Dream was amazing.

    The championship video literally brought me to tears.

    The Starks block should have definitely been on there.

    That being said, I miss him. I have two of his jerseys and he will go down as my favorite basketball player of all time. His arsenal was amazing, and as great of a player that he was, he was even a more amazing person. I think the only player in the NBA today with Dream's level of humility is Yao.

    How anyone in the world could question Dream being in the top 2-3 centers of all time is beyond me. Watching his speech last night just made remember how special of a player we had.

    What about the block of Kareem's sky hook in the '86 playoffs?

    I feel he was too, but if you add in college, then he and Ewing are about the same. Look at this:

    http://www.snsportsbeat.net/2008/09/hall-of-famers-olajuwon-ewing-forever.html

    They're careers began and finsihed about the same except one won their title in college and the other in the pros.
