wow. just wow. put olajuwon of 95 with the magic of right now and see if the playoffs turn out any different. what a joke. i dont even buy that dwight is that much more athletic if more athletic at all than hakeem. hakeem ... dude was unstoppable in every facet of the game almost. no center can guard him one on one. dwight will be a great great player but as of right now, not even close to hakeem. i still think yao dominates games more than dwight.
*edit* olajuwon in his prime. he was still nba finals mvp in 95 and all but the next year was when he started to slow down. perhaps 95 was his prime but who knows.
Thanks for all the replies guys, I got a lot of laughs out of those. I know how ridiculous their comments were, but I guess that I talk about the Rockets so much that they would go against anything I said anyways. He was simply unstoppable. The way that he could pull up and either drive or just pop it from just inside the arch with such quickness and grace is something like I've never seen before.
