Who was better? Personally, seeing those two elite centers squaring off was one of the best moments ever to watch in the NBA.

Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon. He could do things with the ball that most centers wouldnt think of.

Did you watch that video? The Dream absolutely dominates Robinson.. way too quick for him.

not to mention Akeem has to be the only 7'1 guy to ever have a crossover

some people just have a weakness against certain players. I still think Hakeem is better, but for example, you might have put Elden Cambell on Shaq, but would you put him on somebody else for no reason? no way.

I like them both but I think Olajuwon is better. And I do love his low post moves.

Well they were both great players, it's impossible to hate either of them, they both won a couple of titles, they were both amazing. I have to say they were equal. I really do.
