Quote from: Citizen-Y on August 23, 2013, 02:56:22 PMDream didn't match up against a bunch of 5'8" white dudes. He played and dominated during the greatest era of centers in league history. But we aren't talking about Dream we are talking about the Lakers taking another loss and crying about it. Nice strawman argument.But since I'm bored I'll play your game:http://www.cigaraficionado.com/webfeatures/show/id/One-on-One-with-Michael-Jordan_6189Quote If I had to pick a center [for an all-time best team], I would take Olajuwon. That leaves out Shaq, Patrick Ewing. It leaves out Wilt Chamberlain. It leaves out a lot of people. And the reason I would take Olajuwon is very simple: he is so versatile because of what he can give you from that position. It's not just his scoring, not just his rebounding or not just his blocked shots. People don't realize he was in the top seven in steals. He always made great decisions on the court. For all facets of the game, I have to give it to him. —Michael Jordangreat...he's still not even close to being regarded as a top 3 all-time player, and thats why ur mad. u actually expected me to entertain ur angertrolling in defense mode or something?

If you take into account the amount of centers Hakeem has dominated in playoff series you can argue he's the best ever. Hakeem owned every one of them in his prime including sweeping a much younger/healthier Shaq who had just beat the Jordan/Pippen bulls earlier in the playoffs. Year before? Beat Ewing and the Knicks in the finals and we all know how David Robinson felt about facing Hakeem ** http://blacksportsonline.com/home/2013/06/dennis-rodman-thought-david-robinson-was-intimidated-by-hakeem-olajuwon/
