Hakeem Olajuwon - My Journey [HD]

Hakeem Olajuwon was born in Lagos, Nigeria in 1963. When he was 18 he moved to the United States to play basketball for Guy Lewis at the University of Houston. He led the Cougars to 3 Final Four appearances. He suffered 2 heartbreaking losses in the 1983 and 84 NCAA Championship games. One to North Carolina State coached by Jim Valvano. The other to John Thompson, Patrick Ewing and the Georgetown Hoyas. After weighing his options Hakeem would leave school after his junior year and enter the 1984 NBA Draft. Surprisingly enough he was drafted by the Houston Rockets, number one overall. Hakeem, together with fellow 7 footer Ralph Sampson would go on to be known as the "Twin Towers." In only his second season Hakeem would take his Rockets all the way to the 1986 NBA Finals. Although the Rockets would go on to lose to Larry Bird and the Boston Celtics the future still looked very bright in Houston. Sampson was traded in 1988 leaving Hakeem as the undisputed leader of the franchise. Carrying a heavy load on most night's due to a poor and constantly changing supporting cast Hakeem would still show the world just how talented he was. He led the league in rebounding twice (1989, 1990) averaging 13.5 and 14. He led the league in blocked shots 3 times ( 1990, 1991, and 1993). In the 93-94 season Hakeem became the only player in the history of the NBA to be named Most Valuable Player, Defensive Player of the Year and Finals MVP in the same season. His Rockets would go on to win back <b>...</b>

Hakeem Olajuwon - 40 pts vs. Jazz (G4 - 1995 playoffs)

Down 1-2 and facing elimination, Hakeem delivers with a big 40 point game. Like usual, completely embarrassing defenders when guarded one on one. This was the first of 5 elimination games the Rockets faced in this playoff run, and they won all of them behind Hakeem who averaged 33/11/5/2 on 55% shooting in those elimination games. Hakeem broke open the game with a huge 27 point first half, while Drexler, who also had a 40 point game, kept the game out of reach with a big second half. www.basketball-reference.com

January 30, 1997 Nuggets@Rockets (Hakeem Olajuwon 48 points)

This is one of the best Hakeem Olajuwon performances and sets a NBA record for most points without free throws. Just amazing displaying all his offensive repertory specially in the low post. Ricky Pierce got 25 points, his season high, and started very inspirated with 12 points in the 1st quarter. The other Nuggets veteran Dale Ellis scored 20 points, 15 in the 2nd quarter. If you enjoy watching Olajuwon´s endless fakes, spin moves and Dream shakes then this is a good opportunity.

Let me tell you one thing - if you'll try to guard The Dream with undersized bigs like Victor Alexander, Clifford Rozier and Chris Gatling you just won't succeed. Even a solid big like Rony Seikaly doesn't bother Olajuwon. Hakeem drops 42 on the Warriors without any major problems and as always contributes to other departments like blocks and assists. The fact that Vernon Maxwell is clutch helps as well. December 29, 1994.

Hakeem Olajuwon - Hakeem the Dream

Hakeem Abdul Olajuwon (born Akeem Abdul Olajuwon on January 21, 1963) is a retired Nigerian-American professional basketball player in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Olajuwon played center for the Houston Rockets, whom he led to back-to-back championships in 1994 and 1995. Olajuwon was drafted by the Rockets with the first overall selection of the 1984 NBA Draft. Olajuwon combined with the 7 ft 4 in (2.24 m) Ralph Sampson, to form what was dubbed the "Twin Towers" duo. The two led the Rockets to the 1986 NBA Finals, where they lost in six games to the Boston Celtics. After Sampson was traded to the Golden State Warriors in 1988, Olajuwon became the undisputed leader of the team. He led the league in rebounding twice (1989, 1990) and shot--blocking three times (1990, 1991, 1993). In the 1993-94 season he became the only player in NBA history to win the NBA's Most Valuable Player (MVP), Defensive Player of the Year, and Finals MVP awards in the same season. In 1996, Olajuwon assisted in the gold medal-winning performance of the United States national team and was selected as one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History. He ended his career the league's all-time leader in blocked shots. Listed at 7 ft 0 in (2.13 m), Olajuwon is generally considered one of the five greatest centers to ever play the game. Olajuwon averaged 20.6 points, 11.9 rebounds and 2.68 blocks in his rookie season. He finished as runner-up to Michael Jordan in the 1985 Rookie of the Year <b>...</b>
