Hakeem would dominate in today's game. He would have better footwork than anybody. His handles would even improve in today's era bec centers today are no longer discouraged to bring down the ball or operate from outside the paint. He was a good perimeter and FT shooter which means he got a shooting touch that alot of centers dont possess. So i expect him to shoot well from the 3pt arc like embiid and jokic. His fundamentals and IQ are top notch. He's the all time leader in shot blocks and if u have AD leading the league in shotblocks today there's no question that Hakeem will be leading the league in shotblocks for multiple seasons. And lastly, the dude was mentally and physically tough.

@@peterstark4562 Yup! All that/Agree!!!! His greatness, starts with his defense, as he was top 10 in steals all time as well (he many not be any more, could be a 12 or so)? So, no matter how great he was offensively (and he was a versatile; effective; stupendously gifted offensively player for sure). His defense was equally good, if not better. Similar to Bill Russell, his blocks are only a small reflection of the amount of misses; steals; turnovers; deflections; re-directions, etc., that he actually caused. He was like a Human Cyclone on defense that extended to the three point line. Most of the guys, who are considered (whether right or wrong, I say wrong) "greater" than him by the corporate press. They, don't understand the amount of effort he applied on defense, regarding any longevity (along with not consistently playing with great management; coaching and teams) and how it effects your scoring stats. If he mostly concentrated on offense (as so many other of the great scoring centers), think about how much longer he could have played? He controlled the game defensively, better than any player I've ever seen. And offensively, he was constantly double to quadruple teamed from his 2nd season onward. So, he dominated the proceedings on both sides of the ball better than anyone. Most idiot press members, don't know this. But many of the all time players do, and have called Olajuwon the best player or Center they've ever seen (or at worst, put him in their top 2-3-5). This includes: Bill Russell; Bill Walton; Shaq; Kobe Bryant; Michael Jordan; Cedric Maxwell-who called him the most dominant he ever seen; His coach Bill Fitch (who coached, Parish; McHale and Bird), etc., to name a few. That ridiculous Herculean effort so many of us saw in 94-95 (that the press labelled "the best basketball we've ever seen"). Many Rocket/Basketball fans saw the same display during the 1986 playoffs onward, in between. It just took the rest of the press, country to catch up with what we already knew. Hakeem was a DOG Supreme!!!!

Wow....no 3's! Actual good halfcourt defense! A.mix between going to the hole and mid-range.

Storytime: During the summer before the 1986-87 season, Coach Pat Riley went to the GOAT with his plan of asking Magic to look for his shot more. So for the team's first time since 1974, the Lakers #1 scoring option would not be #33. Getting that news at almost 40 yrs old. Kareem that summer gained 25-30 pounds of muscle- while lowering his body fat. This was because he wanted more bulk in his legs for positions against the younger post players. This is why you see him bigger in this clip & any from his last 3 yrs. After Magic went on to win his first regular season MVP award , in the championship clinching game 6 against the Celtics Kareem with the added weight at 40 yrs old put 32 points on Parrish & Walton.

In that time...Sabonis&Divac came Up ..through Tkachenko
