I don't know if he's the best big man ever. What about KD? He's almost 7 feet tall and has handles like a guard. Hell, he can cross you up, head right down the lane, right out the door, call a taxi, go to the nearest airport, join up with a record breaking team, get on the court, head out past the 3 point line, and shoot jumpers. What about him?
But, Olajuwon didn't have good enough footwork to run to the Bulls for help to get a ring. So, how can he be better than KD? Hell, I think KD could run all the way to the Spurs if he doesn't get a ring in Golden State. That's some good foot work.
A lot of the time it's positioning, today's centres are terrible at establishing a good position to set up a post up move. One of the reasons why I feel like the big man game has diminished over time is because of the zone defence. When teams line up out of the 2-3 or even the 2-1-2, centres and power forwards find it difficult to turn baseline or even drive into the key. This defence however only eliminated the power play of big men but in theory it shouldn't affect the quicker centres since the zone is subject to how an offence moves around in those zones. Teams should be investing more in the triangle offence or just the post game in general so they can open up shooters on the perimeter or draw in much needed fouls.

Totally negates the fact that everyone thinks shaq was just dunking.. His footwork wasn't hakeem but the dude had some foot work.. I hate when people say " shaq was just dunking 24/7 "
The zone defense rule makes it much easier to defend the post. It's brought the bigs out of the block, resulting in more jump shooting bigs. That's one of the reasons why centers today don't have the moves like Hakeem. I didn't realize that until Reggie pointed it out in one of the Open Court episodes, but it makes sense.
I know it's a small thing but look at who's guarding Hakeem versus the other two. Robinson, Ewing, Shaq, just some Hall of Fame centers that Hakeem humiliated.
Any up and coming big man in the game should be required to take a course on low post footwork and right a 400 word essay on why Hakeem was so great at it.
Olajuwon is a nightmare to guard, he will beat you with the dribble, spins, fakes, shakes or just shoot above you. And underrated stong guy I mean he can do bully ball against bigs too
I think Hakeems post work is too advanced for a player like Dwight or Blake... they needed to learn the simple moves and tricks from someone who strictly relied on dunks and layups... Blake is going the right way, he figured out that post isn't really his thing and he worked on his jumpshot...now he mostly shoots or drives. Dwight is still mostly a defensive presence, sadly.... but he gets good number of points every now and then. He certainly looks good in the Hawks uniform.
Post player IMO are one of the most exciting players to watch. Andrew Bynum, Z-Bo, Kobe, Melo,KG,Tim Duncan. Are great low post players, and today Roy Hibbert is resurrecting the center position and low post scoring.
I know its been 9 years my guy but even today he would destroy these kids. No era ever would be able to figure out the Dream. Hope life is well bud 9 years later.
This was an awesome video. Unfortunately the game changed after that 2015 draft. okafor was the last post dominant big man as well as al jefferson🤦🏾♂️
The game really has changed. Big guys like to try to be shooting guards it seems. To many jump shooting big men. Dirk changed the game but not every one is Dirk. Once Timmy retires all that's really left of Zbo and maybe the Gasols
The last time I remember of them using Kenny's Court was 2019? During the time they invited a kid and a asshole of a 3pt guinnes world record holder for a shooting competition. But if it's like this video? It's been a long while (whenever they probably switched the set is when they stopped). Not sure but that's what I remember
shaq just named the best 3 point shooters he had for each of his title runs! D-scott for magic, B-shaw for 3 peat, GP for the all star team with the lakers, and James posey with miami!
Thank You #TNT for doing this. Show these kids how the post works.. nothing fancy but effective. If I am 6'10 or 6'11 250lbs man.. I'd probably the most dominant NBA player now..
Barkley probably did the most with the least amount of abilities. He was 6'4, out of shape and couldn't jump high at all. He wasn't that athletic either. But he knew how to use his body unlike anyone else. The amount of rebounds and points he scored is insane with the abilities he had. If shaq stayed in shape and focused only on basketball he'd be the goat and it wouldn't be close. He'd have 8+ season mvp's, 8+ rings, 1st in career points, top two in career rebounds and points.
Barkley was a great athlete. Go back n rewatch some highlights of his time with Philly. 76er Barkley was a force of nature. I get your point though, what he did at his size, at a time when the paint was loaded is remarkable.
@@itsmeitstrue I never said Barkley wasn't athletic. But he wasn't the most athletic player ever. He used his size, power and wide frame to score and rebound. Its the reason the 5 second rule was put into place. Because Barkley would just back defenders down from way out to the rim lol.
Of all the top 50 all time NBA scorers, Shaq is number 1 in 2pt FG%, Barkley is number 2, they are literally the best shooters in history of the elite scorers.
and i also think that the big man won't be back soon. The rise of point guards in the league could only mean more kids will be imitating these guards and therefore less big man who can do decent post moves. Heck Kobe does better post moves than almost all big man today. That's how watered down the center position is these days. Once Timmy and KG retires, I think we won't be seeing good post moves by big men in a long time. Although Lamarcus shows some good moves occasionally.
+TheFrede2300 agreed, most big men today set picks to free up guards, rebound for guards, or get a dunk once in a while if the guards let them touch the ball, sad
***** It's sad i love big men, i hope a player like Jahlil Okafor can bring bigs back or at least help them get back. Only bigs i can think of that has post game and can score 20+ in the post are Gasol brothers, Cousins, Randolph and Al Jefferson
After doc rivers' whole tenure I feel like he should've pushed Blake and DJ more to focus on their low post games. Imagine how dangerous cp3 could be with even more choices. Who knows maybe some injuries wouldn't have happened.
I love how excited barjkley gets watching the dream highlights
OOOOooo WAO!

lmao! yessir
Eric Garcia very truu! chuck was a beast!
Almost 4 years later and DeAndre Jordan is still just a dunker. Just wow
Sad, but true...
He doesn't even need to be a post up player. His job is different
he's going to be in trouble when he's getting older. cant rely on athleticsm for ever dude

Great lesson from,2 if the greatest big man of all time
If Shaq's footwork is considered great, what the fuck is Hakeem's considered? Godlike?
Yes, skill wise (footwork, moves, handles) Hakeem is the best big man ever.
Vince Carter amazing?
I don't know if he's the best big man ever. What about KD? He's almost 7 feet tall and has handles like a guard. Hell, he can cross you up, head right down the lane, right out the door, call a taxi, go to the nearest airport, join up with a record breaking team, get on the court, head out past the 3 point line, and shoot jumpers. What about him?
John Hess KD compared to Olajuwon?!? Silly child!
But, Olajuwon didn't have good enough footwork to run to the Bulls for help to get a ring. So, how can he be better than KD? Hell, I think KD could run all the way to the Spurs if he doesn't get a ring in Golden State. That's some good foot work.

A lot of the time it's positioning, today's centres are terrible at establishing a good position to set up a post up move.

The last time I remember of them using Kenny's Court was 2019? During the time they invited a kid and a asshole of a 3pt guinnes world record holder for a shooting competition. But if it's like this video? It's been a long while (whenever they probably switched the set is when they stopped). Not sure but that's what I remember
Hey I was wondering how u got the custom music onto 2k5 I have been trying to do it for a while
shaq just named the best 3 point shooters he had for each of his title runs! D-scott for magic, B-shaw for 3 peat, GP for the all star team with the lakers, and James posey with miami!
Are there any more of these?
Thank You #TNT for doing this. Show these kids how the post works.. nothing fancy but effective. If I am 6'10 or 6'11 250lbs man.. I'd probably the most dominant NBA player now..
Shaq is nimble with those size 23 feet.
IM STILL RIGHT DERE DOE LOOOL 4:00
The closest thing iv'e seen to a big man that works in the post constantly is Al Jefferson.
Barkley probably did the most with the least amount of abilities. He was 6'4, out of shape and couldn't jump high at all. He wasn't that athletic either. But he knew how to use his body unlike anyone else. The amount of rebounds and points he scored is insane with the abilities he had. If shaq stayed in shape and focused only on basketball he'd be the goat and it wouldn't be close. He'd have 8+ season mvp's, 8+ rings, 1st in career points, top two in career rebounds and points.
Barkley was a great athlete. Go back n rewatch some highlights of his time with Philly. 76er Barkley was a force of nature. I get your point though, what he did at his size, at a time when the paint was loaded is remarkable.
@@itsmeitstrue I never said Barkley wasn't athletic. But he wasn't the most athletic player ever. He used his size, power and wide frame to score and rebound. Its the reason the 5 second rule was put into place. Because Barkley would just back defenders down from way out to the rim lol.
@@865style They didnt call him the round mound of rebound for nothing! 😂
Of all the top 50 all time NBA scorers, Shaq is number 1 in 2pt FG%, Barkley is number 2, they are literally the best shooters in history of the elite scorers.
and i also think that the big man won't be back soon. The rise of point guards in the league could only mean more kids will be imitating these guards and therefore less big man who can do decent post moves. Heck Kobe does better post moves than almost all big man today. That's how watered down the center position is these days. Once Timmy and KG retires, I think we won't be seeing good post moves by big men in a long time. Although Lamarcus shows some good moves occasionally.
Willing to bet a lot of hakeems footwork and deception came from his soccer background
That gives me food old nba days, what are the big men doing now?
Tim Duncan still doin the same fundamental moves and brought the spurs another championship, idk what the other big men are doing 😴
Big men aren't really doing much these days which is very sad in my eyes. Shooters are in and shooting teams dominate the league atm
+TheFrede2300 agreed, most big men today set picks to free up guards, rebound for guards, or get a dunk once in a while if the guards let them touch the ball, sad
***** It's sad i love big men, i hope a player like Jahlil Okafor can bring bigs back or at least help them get back. Only bigs i can think of that has post game and can score 20+ in the post are Gasol brothers, Cousins, Randolph and Al Jefferson
+TheFrede2300 the grizzlies are my team as long as zbo and marc are around, surround them with a few great spot up shooters and they can win it all
Blake and deandre need to spend an off season with hakeem!
+Joshua Han hakeem would never accept him haha
i didn’t know charles never jump hooked, it just seems like the most common move for a big man to do
He was only 6'4
After doc rivers' whole tenure I feel like he should've pushed Blake and DJ more to focus on their low post games. Imagine how dangerous cp3 could be with even more choices. Who knows maybe some injuries wouldn't have happened.
I think the 2 guys we have closest to that are LaMarcus Alridge and Brook Lopez. But they aren't anywhere NEAR Hakeem's level
How tall is Ernie?! I always thought Shaq & even Chuck would dwarf him
Please count the total number of dribbles in this video.
I hope it works, the music adds to the game I think lol
Feet work eh Charles.
dwight, are you hearing this?
Blake Griffin
