Dude starts a topic about arguably the most skilled center ever with Kareem and y'all have nothing to say besides mentioning your hero Nik ? :-X... I remember how badly he outplayed Robinson then Shaq in 95 postseason .. Olajuwon at his best

Ignore them, man. Talking about Hakeem, you can delete the word "arguably" from your post. He was been BY FAR the most skilled center ever, it's not even close.
Odom against the Rockets. What a nice tribute, eh?

Hakeem was a beast no dout

russell > wilt > hakeem > shaq > Kareem
In terms of basketball skills Hakeem has em all beat.

He Was The Reason I Liked The Rockets Back In The Day. I Modeled My Whole Bball Game After Him.
He is my favorite bball player, no doubt.

Man i know, lol. It was just a tribute done by a player who doesn't do it regularly like Hakeem did and who haven't reached perfection like Hakeem did. It was just something funny to see.

Ok man, but this shit ain't funny no more. Celtics won a title, but don't fucking ruin this forum please. You're mastering skills than no other poster has - how to break my balls in every single post you make. We're talking about Hakeem and his skills. Stay in topic.

if ya ever read any of my past posts i've said hakeem was the fucking man
and then Laker sheep come in with their "OMG HES NOT KISSING THE ASS OF KAREEM AND SHAQ LETS KILL HIM"

Don't be paranoid, man. Nobody said "LETS KILL HIM". You have two of the most representative Laker fans in this board who posted in this topic, and they both said Hakeem was "the most skilled center ever", so what the fuck are you talking about? Don't add Laker fans in each of your posts, it's getting played out. If you're beefing with NIK ( = 1 person ), don't fucking ruin the forum. It's your beef, and i couldn't care less.
Peace.

Olajuwon was always my favorite big man to watch. I have to admit, after watching that video, it is UNREAL how unskilled todays big men are compared to those in the 80s and early 90s. NO ONE has moves like the Dream. He absolutly abused shaq in the finals in 95. That was a masterpiece of post moves in that series. He might not have been the most dominant post player, but hands down the most skilled and will probably never be duplicated with todays bigs all going towards the euro style of face up posting.

hakeem was amazing. one of the greatests to ever play the game and he only first touched a basketball at the age of 13. that said, KAREEM was the greatest center to ever play the game, and even skillwise, he definitely rivals Hakeem with his amazing arsenal and footwork. id put 1.kareem 2.wilt 3.russell 4.hakeem 5.shaq...thats my personal top 5.

Wilt, Russell and Shaq dominated the game with their body, their power moves, their rebounds, their blocks.

He had his own signature move, man. And nobody will ever be skilled enought to do it on the court again.

Kareem > Hakeem as an overall center (it's not even a discussion), but Hakeem had the best footwork and he had the best signature move, imho. Anyway it's number 1 and number 2, so..
-
Indeed.
On his signature move -
"The Dream Shake was actually one of my soccer moves which I translated to basketball. It would accomplish one of three things: one, to misdirect the opponent and make him go the opposite way; two, to freeze the opponent and leave him devastated in his tracks; three, to shake off the opponent and giving him no chance to contest the shot."

Man i'm saying Hakeem is #1 and Kareem is #2. I'm not saying skyhook wasn't wonderful. I just personally like the Dream Shake better. Plus Hakeem was quicker, he made jumpshots too, he knew how to dribble.. He looked like a fucking guard!! But Kareem was the best Center out of the two, no doubt.

thats not my only source, it's the only list i found when i googled "top 10 centers"...any source will tell you that Kareem>Hakeem, even the dumbfucks at espn. to claim otherwise is just plain dumb.

Yeah but we were saying Hakeem was more skilled, faster, had better footwork and better movements, and even arguably a better signature move than Kareem. Nobody here is saying Hakeem is the best Center in the History of basketball. It's like saying Ray Allen has the best shooting tecnique in the NBA: it doesn't mean he's better than Jordan, lol.

Somebody said Howard is the 10th best C in history.
A moron, but it was just one. I do agree with their top-5 tho'.
P.S. If you wanna know the two guys who destroyed your Russell dude they are Thorpe and Webb. If it wasn't for them he was n.1.
5 guys only said Kareem was the best C ever.
4 guys said Wilt was the best C ever.
10 guys said Bill was the best C ever. But two guys said he was #5 and #6, destroying him.
NIK, keep ignoring BSPN, please.

yeah, them 2 must be stat-guys
i remember seeing that way back, BS

Hakeem destroyed Ewing, Robinson, and O'neal all within a 14 months span. He fucking owned those guys with his stellar skills.
