Backpicks: Hakeem Olajuwon #6

A buddy texted this to me a little while ago. This website, Backpicks, is doing a Greatest of All-Time list of players, and they have Hakeem coming in at #6.

This guy does not appear to be a biased Rockets fan; but rather someone who spent a lot of time going through plays & gathering data. They provide a lot of great clips; but my favorite thing from this was saying that these are not highlights...this is just how Hakeem played on a regular basis!

This is some good stuff here if you have some time to appreciate one of the greatest ever to play the game. I'm not familiar with Backpicks beyond this, but I'm curious to see what else they have out there.

Not surprising to see a couple of hypersensitive Spurs fanboys talking salty in the comments.
It's funny how some of the take exception to the fact that Dream is widely regarded as better than Timmy but I guess it makes sense when you realize most of those complaining weren't following the game during Olajuwon's era.
