    These sessions with Hakeem worked for Kobe because he never stopped practicing what he learned. My point is no matter what you learn you still have to continue to work on what you learned in order for it to effectively translate to your game

      Gil's point was that Hakeem's lessons only work on players who had foundations with good footwork, kobe's dad play ball and kobe played soccer when he was young, bron played WR in high school and had good control of his feet, people who are just picking it up first time with Hakeem aren't learning because he don't know how to teach at their level. I agree that you need to work on it in your own time but if you're taught wrong how are you going to practice correctly?

    Gil has a narrow mindset on this. It’s not about copying verbatim Hakeem’s moves. It’s about taking the lesson and allowing the player to shape the moves to the player. Nobody is expecting Giannis to be “Hakeem-esque” on the blocks and post, but if he can develop more moves that are better than what he has because of the teaching then it worked.

    Gilbert I can give you one who trained with Mr. Olajuwon and used the footwork effectively. Dwight Howard. There's a playoff series game against Portland when I believe he scored the first 13 points of the game and every move was Olajuwonesque. Here's the thing about Gilbert, he never had his own identity or creative move when he was playing. Remember he said once that he copied others. Not saying that's a bad thing but we don't remember him for nothing of his own. You got Olajuwon-Dream Shake. Kareem-Skyhook. Dirk-Stepback. Jordan-Fadeaway(and so many others). Tim Hardaway-Crossover. Gervin-Finger Roll. Magic-No Look Pass. Harden-version of Stepback 3. So many other players that may not have their own signature move but their creativity had them separated from the rest. Gilbert has nothing to offer the game because he was easy to replace. He doesn't come up in conversations about great players. Not a Hall of Famer. No Rings. Not really consider a fierce competitor. Tell me this; would a young player today pay 50,000--75,000 or 100,000 to train with Jordan? Would there even be a debate about it?

But he became a guy that was able to stay in the league and a lot of that had to do with the KNOWLEDGE and skill he gained from Hakeem. Hell, whose to say Hakeem realized offense wasn't going to be his calling and started training him on how to be a better defender based upon his natural skill set. Maybe his footwork training was more defensive and not offensive.

    Gil is 100% correct. You can't do something a week before the season, (less than 10 hours total), on something you are a novice at. And expect it to be worth it. Especially when they aren't correcting your mistakes. This is sometimes the problem with many great players teaching others. They don't know how to teach because they just expect it to be done the way as easy as they do it 90% of the time and don't correct mistakes when they see it.

    All I know is it's effective. Remember, when Lebron couldn't post up Barea and lost the finals partly or mostly because of it. The dude trained with Hakeem and came back with an excellent postup package. Since then, nobody said he has no post up moves.
    With regard to the amount, it's about how you value your time. If I'm at work or have a business, and I'm making 50,000 a day, if you want my day to be only for you, then pay me 50k. Hakeem is a businessman. He's worth 300 M, and majority of it is not from NBA. Only about 110 million of it is from NBA salary.

    Although I would say this, unless ur willing to work hard on the most Hakeem will teach you, don’t pay for it. It’s a waste of your money. Post game is no longer a big part of NBA, if lucky, player will receive the ball to get to work like twice per game, both time they expect you to being a Jurassic World Dinosaur amongst animals right away.
    What I trying to say that it’s might be better to use that money for something else like a fitness trainer, dietician, shooting trainer, or something that would suit you and what the team need more rather than post play.

    Gilbert Arenas is a professional hater. Kobe is from Arenas’ era, and he worked out with Hakeem Olajuwon, and Kobe said he got better. Arenas thinks because everyone has switched to the 3 point shot game, low post play has no place, even for actual big men that play in the low post.
