What's new

All-Time NBA Draft (not just international)

Alright guys - I'm gonna give everyone an opportunity to give me your best offer for the 6th pick.


Give me your best shot!!!!
 
My best shot? You want my honest answer? I'm buzzed off some IPA's and gonna go crush some Dogfish. That's real beer sons. If you haven't had any, I highly recommend it.
 
OK dudes. Would love to chat. But it's 4 am right now and I have a thrilling 12 hours worktime waiting for me tomorrow (today actually). So a few hours of sleep would be nice.

C ya. I'm sure I'll have plenty to read tomorrow.
 
Hakeem Olajuwon
Best footwork in the low post in the game, great defender, passer. Great midrange game, and makes players around him better, and took Shaq to school in the finals, he won two.

Just want to give some more highlights of the Dream. With career stats and some more thoughts.

In the hall of fame

As you can see there are no centers like him, yes you can get a lot of good centers later in the draft, but all had weaknesses. The Dream was great to elite of the elite. In every category I looked at. In my mind the greatest center of all time. Absolutely no holes in his game. Also would like to add that he was one of the few superstars that didn't need another superstar to help him win a championship. Truly deserving of the third overall pick in any all time draft.
