Like a C4.
Dude was literally the center version of Kobe. Look at those post fadeaways
Check that last pivot move into the fadeaway at 9:50 and 10:20 of that Hakeem video and watch the pivot fadeaway Kobe does here.
There's also a few videos of him making that exact same fadeaway. Same footwork and everything like Hakeem.
I wonder if that's who Jordan was studying when he was in retirement. Everyone wants to say it was Oscar Robertson's fadeaway, but Jordan looked like he took a ton of Hakeem's moves in the post for his second three peat vs the first when he was more of an attacker. As the video also shows, Hakeem was the originator of the Dirk Nowitzki fadeaway as well.

Parker and Ginobili have never started an All-Star game before.@ the thought of them winning a popularity contest.
Does Timmy have the longevity he has without those two?Answer that question.
Ginobili would have had much bigger numbers if he was the man on his own team. He came off the bench to sacrifice for the team and you're belitting his contributions?
You gonna act like Spurs fans haven't been calling Parker the best PG in the game since '07?
So a coach "selected him" to an all star game...which is way different than being voted in by the fans :yeah ok:
I disagree about Manu his style of play is so reckless you give him 32 + minutes a night and he won\t ever...ever...ever come close to playing 82 games a season....his numbers will obviously look better but you can also shave a few years off his career as well...
Spurs fans say Parker is the best pg in the league...shocking...fans of a team say that the point guard who starts for there team is the best pg in the game since whenever...of course they do...there fans... of the team and the player
You can catch me in plenty threads talking that "Tony Parker cooked your favorite point guard"...Doesn't excuse the fact that we lost to memphis as a one seed cause they decided to let parker shoot and...he couldn't...or that he not only got cooked by goran dragic the year Timmy didn't play in the playoffs he somehow let Dragic damn near single handily beat the entire team...or how about 04-05 when he was shooting 65% from the free throw line and 27% from 3...
Starting point guard for your team and pop subbing him in and out of clothes games cause he can't consistently make a free throw and can't shoot the 3...as a point guard...
You know 07 wasn\t his first year right? You know 01 was right? Go look at Parkers first four years and tell me you ever thought this dude would be a first ballot HOF....

Hakeem and it isn't close.
Exactly stats in the regular season don't matter to me the nbs is about what you do in the playoffs
Olajuwon won a title when he had Otis Thorpe as his sidekick
Prime: Hakeem and its an easy decision for me
From '06 on, he was a regular All-Star and always one of the best PGs in the league. That's nearly a decade of elite play. Nearly a decade in which Duncan's minutes were drastically cut because there was another player (actually two) on his team that could carry the offensive load.So a coach "selected him" to an all star game...which is way different than being voted in by the fans :yeah ok:

Hakeem didn't have that luxury as his career was winding down. No Kawhi Leonards were falling into his lap because of great management to extend his career even longer. :smhkobe:
lmao
Youre mentioning jobber ass role players
Fact: hakeem was a better offensive player
fact: hakeem was a better defensive player
Duncan had a better career, but if were talking prime its hakeem and its not even close
