That move is called “the dream shake” he taught it to Kobe

No big man in history is as skilled as this man. Hakeem footwork and finesse skills just on a completely different plateau than any other big.

He’s the all time leading shot blocker. So yes, he had the biggest block party lol

There will never be anything like 80’s and 90’s basketball. Literally the Golden ages of EVERYTHING.

Hakeem is probably the most skilled big man (5) of all time. Absolutely deadly on both ends of the floor, a true two way player. As soon as Jordan wasn't looking (94 & 95) Hakeem picked up a couple chips and well deserved because outside of Jordan, Hakeem was the best player in the league in the mid-90's.

Bro. Shaq tells his kids he played against the Dream. Shaq has him listed as best center of all time fyi

Olajuwon was a beast! Played against him when he played for the Houston Cougars. He dominated yet after he blocked my shot to the upper deck, he helped me up and said "good shot". A great person his whole life.

The Dream giving hall-of-famers nightmares like Krueger. Unguardable top 5 center all-time! Best footwork I have ever seen on a big. So good that even Bron asked him to tutor him. And when they asked Hakeem about Bron vs Jordan he said "It's an unfair comparison. Jordan if far more superior and in a tougher league." I think he's pretty qualified on the GOAT subject.

He dominated in the best Big-man era. He made other Hall of Famers, look bad. It was fun to watch. I was a huge Patrick Ewing fan, and he used to abuse Patrick too.

Any all time team I’m making gotta have Hakeem as my center

Greatest center ever. He would destroy any other center you put against him....ANY!!

A word of advice don't react to a single season when reacting to a player for the first time those are more context rather than the plays that people remember you are missing out on some players when they are at their most athletic.

Thats a center doing that. He had multiple quadruple double games. 2 chips. True legend

Do yourself a favor and watch more of the dream. He's legit one of the best.

Born and raised in Houston. Had a friend go to a Rocket's game in the 80's and Hakeem would practice his dream shake from behind the backboard, shooting it over the back and swishing it every time. He was incredible to watch.

Olajuwon was listed at 7', more like 6'10. There is a reason Kobe, Lebron, and Dwight Howard paid him to teach them his post moves.

Looking forward to this one. Dream was different.

I didn't see one player trying to draw an offensive foul and didn't see one flop. Man, I miss those days😔

Not only blocked Shaq. He swept him in the Finals

He ranks 1st on the NBA block list and 9th in steals. One of the Great all around players in NBA history

Watch some of those Rocket’s-Bull’s game’s during the Bull’s 3-peat from 91-93. They were epic.

I’m glad you’re reacting to some of these “old schoolers”!! Hakeem is on my top five all-time players list. Barkley needs to be on your list too! I’ve got him as the best Power Forward to play!

Them GOAT Szn videos be hard! Glad somebody else appreciates em 👏🏼

So he played in a tough and competitive time in the NBA and he made it look easy at times. Also he’s a center playing like a power forward. He was amazing. Look at the interviews of players who played him back in the day. ✌️

Best big EVER..THEY ALL KNOW! I Watched him growing up..couldnt be stopped ..

Thanks for looking at Olajuwon. Loved the video

Olajuwon had amazing footwork and could spin out of any double team. A truly great finesse center...

Thanks for the hakeem vid. I want a pt 2. The way did ewing in the finals was dirty.

I was waiting for this one

The Dream is Mr. Quadruple-Double which was only done 5 times in NBA history and he done it twice

Many forget that Amare Stoudemire, Kobe and LeBron went to Hakeem’s compound in Texas to learn his post moves.

Most versatile center of all time. Finished in the top ten in shooting pct, blocks, steals, pts, & rebs

Yoooo! I grew up watching Hakeem! This will ve epic for you man.

This man's hands made grown men feel like their efforts weren't good enough.

Even shaq admitted his toughest opponent was 'the dream' Hakeem. Man this some good old basketball.

The greatest center of all time, and my favorite: Hakeem

He was a Beast!

Hit that Michael Jordan best rare footage Voyager video.PLZ

Best center of all time. Top 5 alltime.

I wonder why ppl are giving you just a season highlight instead of an actual Hakeem career mixtape to react to..

Hakeem is the second best I ever saw to Jordan. Best big man I ever saw.

That little shake is called " The Dream Shake"!!!🏀❤🏀

………by the way, GREAT job on these videos!!!!!!

Should do Jason White Chocolate Williams, penny hardaway or Nick Van Exel! Also, full career highlights would be better than one season.

Hakeem is my no.2. On both ends of the floor he dominated and did so in the era of dominant big men.

Shaquille O'Neal still have nightmares over this guy

Best defensive player in NBA history. Locked down the paint and could hold his own on perimeter

He played soccer growing up, and always gave credit to that for his footwork. And they called it the "Dream Shake". Oh, and he isn't the all-time later in blocks for no reason.

30 is Kenny Smith. Yes, THAT Kenny Smith....😂

He's #1 all-time in blocks, 541 ahead of Mutombo! But if they counted blocks in the Wilt Chamberlain/Bill Russell era, they'd each have over 5,000, so he'd really be #3!!

Mans made shaq looks silly for an entire finals series

He is the number 1 shot blocker of all time

For 7’ footer he moves great

You're going to enjoy Dominique Wilkins, Shawn Kemp, Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady. These dudes had the greatest in game, in traffic dunks.

The Dream had a all around Game his foot work seemed like he was dancing doing moves That Dream shake made the best of em Look bad. and he could step out and hit the mid range jumper. one of the best 2 way centers all time.

The duels between him, Robinson, Ewing, and Shaq are legendary. Should definitely react to them

Hakeem Olajawon is possibly the best center ever. Excellent offensive player, excellent defensive player. He was like Joel Embid without the injuries.

With all the great centers in NBA history I believe Hakeem was the best overall. He could literally do it all on both ends of the floor. His 95 season was unreal with all the awards he won and categories he led the league in that year. He was unstoppable.

Moves on top of moves. Low post work…smooth

Oh i also told u watch the Hakeem Olajuwon vs. Shaq highlights 🎯💪🏽💯 ima bout gettin to the point !!! Big facts b

Hakeem is my pick at center all time. Wilt and Kareem is probably just as good or better.... but I just loved his game. He was fun to watch. Graceful!!!!

Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon added 3 things to the NBA... the "Dream Shake", The "Jump Hook" and the "Quadruple Double". Long Live Phi Slamma Jamma!!!

The main reason Hakeem's footwork was so smooth....he grew up playing soccer. Also there's a reason why Kobe AND Lebron went to him for post footwork

Only big man to give Shaq a problem. Hakeem is GOAT status

THE GOAT

I'm surprised they didn't show him make more three's. He was pretty good with the corner three. Especially later in his career.

Goal tending was created for Wilt Chamberlain back n the day since he reportedly had a 50 inch vert and was blocking everything back in the day. Even Kareem's sky hook a few times.

shaq and hakeem were battling fr fr

He made Shaq look bad while practicing Ramadan during those finals

Yesssssss..

😂 I’m glad your studying the history of the league, but you know Hakeem the Dream has taught so many in this current era there foot work, from big men to guards! Look him up! Also you didn’t notice that #30 was Kenny Smith from “Inside the NBA” with Shaq, Barkley & Ernie Johnson 😂 keep learn young bro! 💪🏾 ..

He was famous for the shake Soccer player in Africa that's why his footwork is so good

Hakeem is one of the most underrated players ever. Because he did his damage during the time Jordan played and he only won win jordan retired then when he came back but was rusty so mj wasn't the same. Hakeem is the all time leader in blocks. He's definitely one of the top 5 defenders of all time. Prime Hakeem is top 5 all time. He is the only player ever to finish seasons in the top 10 in 4 categories. He finished top 10 in points, rebounds, blocks, steals.

#30 is Kenny Smith. From TNT

He had a block party against the defending championship the Laker back in 1986. 5 blocks all highlights.

React to DRAZEN PETROVIK. he was a beast and shot threes in the 90s or better yet CHRIS JACKSON. he was the steph curry of the 90s

Hakeem is the best defensive player of all time and easily top 5 player all time. He was a superstar on both ends of the court.

1 the greatest centers in nba history!!

Greatest Center I’ve ever 0:01 seen! Would embarrass the league today. Don’t think for a second that he wouldn’t have developed a great 3 ball as well. 😊

THE DREAM!!!!

When you say dream shake.. this is why we say that. Hakeem the dream olajuwon..

He is #1 blocks 4.6 a game 3800 plus blocks. When he retired he was in top 10 In 5 category Blocks Shooting % Steals Points Rebounds Bol is number 2

Hakeem is one of the goat 🐐

Greatest two-way big man! He was 6'11,255 lbs!!!

I hope you react to Penny Hardaway bro. I know he got hurt but damn was he a beast. Also was on the verge of being Magic Johnson 2.0.

That #30 was Kenny the Jet Smith

That Hakeem was the best culmination of a big man with a hook like Kareem abdul jabbar guick feet like a small forward and butter soft hands for midrange shots. As you've noticed in the comments one year truly doesn't do Hakeem justice. But much respect for upping your basketball IQ young sir. ( Ironically another of my picks for you played for Houston...TRACEY MCGRADY yes all caps) take your time and do a series on Allen Iverson from beginning to his hall of fame speech he is Hip Hop personified and that's why he was so hated because the nba hated our culture just sought to prophet from our athletics. ( like wise with Hip Hop, both are altered because of this fact.) "Southern Bboy respectfully since 83 repping Hip Hop and Boulevard homes projects nicely to the present"

Ok this is it. I’m glad you are reacting to all these other great players at that time. You will now understand even more why MJ is crazy for what he’s done to them.

Some 00's guys you need to watch soon... KG, AI, and Tracy McGrady

Keep in mind that Hakeem was drafted before Mike and nobody has ever said nothing. They only talk about Portland, lol... ps that number 30 was Kenny the jet Smith.

Number ONE shot blocker all time!

Best post footwork in NBA history

Loved growing up watching the The Dream Shake from #34Dream. 🚀🚀🚀🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

In 1990 he averaged 24.3 points 14.0 rebounds 2.9 assists 2.1 steals 4.6 blocks 2.1 steals for a center?? Then add in almost 5 blocks per game lol. That's insane. If he would of been more of a scorer he would of been even better. Which is crazy to think about.

Man the Goat to me

Shaq called him the best center he ever played against. Also, he is the all time leader in blocks. The highlights you’re watching were when he was number three.

That thumbnail lead me to believe it was going to be a Vinnie Del Negro highlights reaction.

He’s the all time leader in blocks my guy

Gotta check out Spud Web bro 5’7 dunking, dude has CRAZY UPS!!

Glad to see the youngbloods checking out the old school. My All-Time Team. I can't see this 12 losing a single game to anyone. Offense, defense, rebounding, toughness, etc. There are no weaknesses. PG: Magic SG: Jordan SF: Bird PF: Olajuwon C: Shaq Bench PG: AI SG: Kobe SF: Pippen SF: LeBron PF: Rodman PF: Giannis C: Kareem Beat it with your best 12 if you dare.
