    Put respect on "Hakeem The Dream, Olajuwon" much deserved and still underrated. The GOAT in the post offensively and defensively

    How can you be the goat and not have a trophy named after you? Lookin at you Kareem and LeBron. I see the 2 goats got the 2 most important trophies appropriately named after them.

    GOAT was the obvious choice. NBA finally did something right.

    The honor should have gone to Ryan Bowen but I suppose Hakeem is a decent backup choice.

    Hakeem and MJ getting drafted within 2 spots of each other will never not be insane to me.
