Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like Yao was the only one who successfully incorporated a Hakeem inspired style in his post game consistently throughout his career.
Kobe
kobe took more from jordan not that hakeem didnt help
VrQz Silent Yeah, I think Kobe was definately more inspired by jordan. And the nature of his game demanded more high post/baseline touches in the post, which resulted in fadeaway and turnaround shots.
matthew concepcion: and embiid but he hasn't trained with hakeem yet
matthew concepcion donatas motiejunas did it too way better than yao i guess
I think Kobe and Yao are the best students who can utilize Dream's skill smoothly
yea...
I agree, I also love how you don’t need to jump out the gym to be effective. His style of play definitely will save your legs.
Embiid
The Dream even in this day and age is still probably the smoothest post player in the world.
Swish Scope the prettiest low post player to watch ever
I would bet money he would clean up in some kind of pro am open gym to this day
Hakeem is so fluid everyone else is so robotic with the moves. Still works but when he does it, it’s just like a dance.
Underrated Legend, one of the best footwork ever.
Russell Westbrook Not one of the best, the best footwork in nba history
@@TheFrede2300 facts
One of the best yes, underrated how? 2 time champion, regular season/final MVP, HOFer...
@@poorlittlesheep4098 Because he's not in some people's top 10 all time because people like using rings as an argument for being the best.
@@batwayne708 well, rings is the benchmark to start discussion about Goat
Hakeem didn't bother teaching Dwight finesse moves I see, lmao
He did honestly and with D-MO also. Howard just still wanted to be a dick head and not do any post moves lol
GimmehMyMoney He did. Didn't make a difference.
Dwight frame was to big for that. It would’ve been cool if Dwight could’ve still managed to incorporate the Dreams moves tho
1:05 The disappointing look on The Dream's face when Dwight Howard just tries to dunk everything.
Looks like Dwight travelled when he spun around.
Also, the point is to do the shake and get a hookshot or something and not go for a dunk because he won't get that kind of space in a real game perhaps.
@asian dude Olajuwon is not teaching him how to dunk. He's trying to teach footwork, post moves, spin, hook shots. You're not gonna have the luxury to dunk all the time.
@@sonix98 You havent met Shaq have you.
@asian dude because dunk often needs so much physical confrontation and risk against opponents like shaq. point of his teaching is how to fool them. and score smoothly. The dream never risk when he post up. he really didn't have to dunk to score constantly. that's why every 90s' legendary centers bend knee to the dream.
@asian dude and get called for many many offensive fouls against a smart defender who knows how to take a charge. Or be the target of a double team and then you definitely cannot contend physically against 2 people
Kobe was actually the smoothest one.. he's pretty fluid
Its amazing how much balance and control Hakeem had had with all his size. The only person who was nearly as smooth in the video was Kobe, and he is 6'6. All the big man looked stiff trying to do those moves. Respect to Hakeem.
Facts 7,0 260 pounds and can Guard all positions.
6 10 actually Lol
You feel like there should be some monastic-like gym on a mountaintop somewhere that people would have to climb to get Hakeem's wisdom, lol.
Next up ... Javale McGee teaching people how to become a multiple time Shaqtin a Fool MVP
Nick Bailey 😭😭😭
2 times champ
Lmao this comment didnt age well
G 18 Lol people forget that McGee was considered the joke of the NBA. I don’t forget tho
@@jpbutler2220 yes. WAS. He is a very decent player now. From gsw to Lakers, he is now considered one of the best defensive centers in the league. I am happy with his growth - from joke to a real center.
Hakeem The Dream should teach me some of his moves
-Imthesystemnow
I'm the real system.
+Demian de Jesus and you're dumb
+Demian de Jesus no he didnt its saying it like anime
Jonathon Simmons is that tha real simmons from tha spurs
+Dave Destine no.
Nobody can quite pull it off.. Hakeem is just silky smooth, amazing
DWIGHT Clearly learned NOTHING
LOL!😂
Tahmar Gaither for a while he was starting to get really solid down low, but he got hurt and stopped with the training as much.
hahahahaha! LOL!
Tahmar Gaither too much of a dumb ass... Dude spent many summers training with him he didn't learned shit!
Well you could see disappointment in Hakeem's eyes lol
imagine Joel Embid's Hakeem's post moves plus his perimiter three points...
W
Man he's slow. Even if he learn dream shake the opponents can come up to him
Damn his injuries are really taking shape sucks he was the closest thing to a modern age hakeem
fun fact... he learned his post moves by watching those videos on CZcams
@@kurtcometa4818 he slow? Tell that to the centers before weakass losers hakeem is a fucking bum weak era nuff said
Only Dwight Howard could have had two of the best post players in history teaching him on a daily basis in Houston ( Hakeem and Kevin McHale) and learn absolutely nothing.
Lol
🤣🤣🤣
Dwight howard had moves in the post, just kobe fans just loved slandering him, now dwight got the last laugh
@@bigguwop9654 Dwight has almost no post moves. Also Kobe > Dwight how does he have the last laugh
@@uselessbird1848 hahahah dwight got the last laugh
6 best centers in no particular order.
1. Hakeem
2. Wilt
3. Russell
4. Moses
5. Kareem
6. Shaq
All these centers were amazing in thier own way.
He will always be one of my favorite big man in the NBA
Hakeem's body control is unparalleled, especially for a guy his size. The way he curls his body around the center of gravity and spins quickly while maintaining balance and control is just beautiful to watch.
wwbdwwbd it comes from his SOCCER playing days.
Most athletes do not train balance and body control.
I tell every kid athletes parents to buy them a BOSU BALL.
Hakeem was an amazing player glade hes teaching
The dream!!! What a weapon in his prime.. still smooth as silk.🙂
Hakeem is your favorite player’s favorite player, that’s how good he is
Kobe the only one who took his teachings and put them into actual games
Favorite NBA player of all time.
People Now Days Have No Idea How Good The Dream Really Was.
This is why legends never die
01:03 the disappointment on the Dream's face when Dwight Howard dunks: "nigga's got no finesse."
Why don't these players use any of these post moves? Only Kobe have used them... Others just wasted Hakeem's time.....
Hakeem' gets pay for this shit
lebron uses some of them.
Dwight never used em xD
yao and kobe were the best
rasas321 yao learn and did moves in games.
Greatest Center of All Time imo
He's a good man and mentor
Hakeem is a legend
I train basketball at a place in birmingham and Hakeem is a trainer there and helps me get better
The master Olajuwon, one of the best centers of the history.
beautiful
good luck in this season Simmons! ! un saludo para pau
Yao made hakeem look short
Because Yao is a 7'5" and Hakeem is 6'10 ½".
Where's Scalabrine, Kwame Brown, Joel Anthony, Anthony Bennett and Huertas?
Joel Anthony I'm MVP not Curry it was just so epic that the nba wouldn't want to show it
Joel Anthony I'm MVP not Curry ikr
Lol, implying Scalabrine needed teaching from anyone. You don't teach the teacher.
cmbunit01 next video should be Scalabrine teaching superstars how to do a 1020 from full court doing multiple front flips dunk
And that's just for warm-ups.
Hakeem is often imitated but can never be duplicated...
Only yao & kobe have post moves. The rest just washed what they learned from dream down the drain
So does Lebron. He plays A lot of back-to-basket now
LeBron at the end like "let me do my thing with this jumper and your post move will be for later"
Nah bro if you watch the original training video that's the exact move Hakeem was teaching him. Olajuwon's mid-range jumper was damn near automatic
the last move was nice 🐐🐐
What's crazy is that if Hakeem came up today, his youth coaches would have made him extend his natural jumper to the three point line. God help you at that point
Dream legend... The best center in the History..
Most underrated center of all time !
Him and moses
Legendary
if you want to play like Hakeem, some basics: you got to dribble as fast as a small foward, you must have accurate baseline and turn around jumper to make your fake show threat, you must be very good at center basics like baby hooks from different angle
that was smooth
Hakeem the dream should teach me some of that stuff
He is so smooth
Bro Hakeem Olajuwon goat
Hakeem was handchecking the hell out of Yao. Lol
Man this video is old 2011 off season training I remember this because LeBron flew down to Houston got training down and A advance MVP 1994 MVP
legend
Hakeem kinda teach them how to "dance " in basketball. Those moves are lethal.
Kobe, LeBron and Yao actually used these moves
Alperen gonna be new Hakeem
Imagine that you have a teacher like The Dream... what a dream!
Smooth
Damn is hakeem just handing out his moves to everyone.
Kobe is the best student of hakeem
1:32 oooo that's clean
they can all do it in practise but to emulate those moves in live high intensity stress action is another
The dream shake is the hardest to learn ..because it’s not just one move but many moves ..depends on the defense gives you and how to counter it.. and how to work on your footwork beautifully ..if you do it wrong it looks ugly and worst you traveling ..my opinion Hakeem , Jordan , Kobe were the best ..and no body even bother to learn it again either it’s so hard or they just want to shoot 3
Greatest center ever
Keith Testaverde kareem
that move by Dwight at 0:55 was tough af
all respect to the dream. he actually did his best to improve nba, while MJ just complained about overrated fools nowadays.
Huh Jordan literally would teach Kobe things in game ... taught Shaq never help an opponent up after a hard foul etc.
Jordan NEVER needed help/teachings/training from another Hall of Famer to be lethal offensively. He discovered and learned on his OWN. That shows who the real GOAT is.
I dont know if he is the best center but he is def the most skilled center of all time
Best C of all time
Olajuwon is so UNDERRATED. Holy Fuck.
Hakeem is still the smoothest
Kobe Bryant is the only player to execute the Dream Shake so perfectly.
SHAQ too, Look at him Vs MJ 1v1
1:37 - the most favorite move of Lebron..
Hakeem = Hamazing
GOAT
holy shit hakeem's move around 1:30 - 1:40
Moses Malone got Hakeem right . #FactZ
I wish other legends took the time to pass on their championship level skills on to the next generation. Imagine if Larry Bird was giving out 3 point shooting lessons after his retirement or if Jordan was handing out flight lessons.
3 point shooting is more of a thing you learn naturally as an nba player but with hakeem it’s different cuz he has a variety of moves
kobe is the only one who mastered what he learned from the dream
Joel Embiid going to be a beast in this league.. Imagine if he gets some pointers/knowledge from a GOAT
I saw Porzingis do a dream shake. If Olajuwan could transfer all his moves to him. God damn he would improve his post a lot
Probably the best all round player to ever play. He was so dominant on both ends of the floor.
Honestly. Coming from a KAT/T-Wolves fan (fav player but I'm solely a Wolves fan), who doesn't even like LeBron as much as Hakeem, Lebron. Best post moves + Defense? Hakeem. But ALL AROUND is passing+iq+scoring+rebounds+steals+blocks+on ball d+off ball d+handles+shooting+finishing+clutchness.
LeBron: Passing, IQ, Scoring, Rebounds, Steals (career 1.7 per game), blocks, on and off ball d, handles, finishing, dunks, and clutchness (see 2016 Finals).
Hakeem: Scoring, IQ, Rebounds, Blocks, On and Off ball D, Finishing, Passing.
Umm, dude, you realise Hakeem could steal the ball too right? Career 1.7 as well. Hakeem also had good handles. If you wanna talk about clutch. How about the winning tip in Game 1 of 1995 NBA Finals. Hakeem was the most skilled center ever.
Mo Wat & MiNNEAPOLiSTiLLiDiE There was this guy that used to play in Chicago that was all around too with the complete offensive & defensive repertoire along with the intangibles.
This guy had bball IQ, SCORING [ball in hand and catch & shoot], CLUTCH [2pt, 3pt, passing, rebounding, free throws, defending], will-to-win, finisher, quickness, on/off ball defense (learned @ school of Dean Smith), steals, blocks, underrated passer & rebounder (ex: see move to PG in '89), athleticism, hang time, great body control, hand-size, not turnover-prone, leader, post game, go-to-moves [fadeaway from outside & reverse layup from inside], footwork, fundamentals, creativity, handles, could use both hands, efficient, strength, mental toughness, stamina, etc, etc, etc.......then add the fact that his game went up in the playoffs, if you talked about him before or during the game (whether it be a coach, fan, the media or opposing player) or if he was sick or injured.
Seriously, What do y'all think about him?
Goat
No chance. How come his only 2 rings were when MJ was gone? When MJ was there he made Hakeem his bitch.
MiNNEAPOLiSTiLLiDiE Im guessin u weren't around at that time to actually watch the 90s
Luis Mendoza Nice guess but why does that matter
He needs to teach Steven adams
The Dream.
G.O.A.T
that’s a good lesson bro. i hope i could train with him one day
Yao the smoothest among the students
GOAT dream shake
Hakeem gets no respect among the masses . However among his peers and fulks who know their ball all say he's the greatest center to ever play the game. M
the dream
Olajuwon is natural.
hakeem like zidane
fine wine
I don't recall ever seeing Kenneth Faried using a single post move to score in the paint...
hakeem is fucking strong
What's with the snippet showing Dwight just breathing at 0:36? They couldn't put the other clips in its place?
No joke Kenneth faried is always wearing blue nuggets shorts
damn, Yao ming has some big ass calves
kwameopoku410 cause hes a big ass man
Honestly, the Admiral would have been a better instructer for dwight. They had similiar builds.
I gotta say Dwight Howard’s footwork really did improve once he worked with Hakeem. Didn’t always make the hook but his footwork usually looked clean
I wish Bynums body didn't betray him and he didn't give up on basketball. He had some of the best post moves the NBA has seen in a long long time.
