    I don't care what nobody say I got Hakeem over Shaq, Kobe, Steph, KD. This guy took away Barkley, Malone, Stockton, Robinson's, Rodman, Shaq and Penny soul in their primes. He took their lunch and ate it and nothing they could have done guy was a beast. Best player in the 1990s besides Jordan.

While Steph is only offensively gifted he's not ahead of Hakeem, that guy was NBA first team and NBA all defensive team throughout the latter 80s and the 90s. Hakeem is in my top 10 while Steph is top 15 at best.

      Definitely!
      The Rockets were the 6th seed!
      Lowest seed to ever win the title.
      No home court advantage in any of the playoff series.
      They beat the top 3 teams in the West to get to the Finals
      Then they swept the top team in the East.
      Hakeem basically carried that team. Drexler was a great player but wasn't an all star that year meaning Hakeem was the only one on that Rockets squad!!

      The Rockets also played in a system where they moved the ball around as a team instead of heavily relying on PG play like most teams, it was extremely difficult to gameplan for them that's why trying to use single coverage on the Rockets wasn't that effective overall they had a lot of good facilitators. The Magic is a good team to compare them to because both played an identical style of ball they usually relied on Penny and Shaq in having their offense run properly, what the Rockets did particularly late in those games was not double team often and the Magic would go through shooting droughts. The Bulls did the same thing the following year, the difference was they did it for the majority of the games and not just in the latter half.

    The '95 Rockets run was ridiculous. Beat a Malone-Stockton Jazz team (60 wins), a prime Barkley Suns team (59 wins) and a prime Robinson-Rodman Spurs team (62 wins). And they did this without homecourt in any round before sweeping the 57 win Magic led by Shaq and Penny, again without homecourt. This and the Dirk led 2011 run have to be the greatest runs to the title in NBA history.

      You know how they say no team in that era could match up w/the Bulls especially when they had Rodman? This Rockets team actually could, the Bulls most dangerous lineup was when they went small with Kukoc and Rodman at PF/C Horry was practically a more athletic version of Kukoc and the Rockets in the WCF with the Spurs showed they could handle Rodman down the stretch most of the games. Robinson/Rodman and O'Neal/Grant were the top 2 C/PF rebounding frontcourts that year so they were actually stronger than the one the Bulls had, the 96 Magic were the closest thing to the Rockets that Bulls team went up against and the Magic had a lot of injuries in that series.

    Kids these days think Joel Embiid is a great player and MVP calibre...

      Joel Embiid is good
      Though he is far away from standard of Hakeem, not in the same tier tbh

      Yeah for those who are too young, Trump was a Democrat and they loved him! He was even at Chelsea Clintons wedding, then he switched parties and the same people called him Hitler!

      I will be real and state that who is the GOAT is open to opinion, a lot of variables to consider, but for me, the player he played against he will always be the GOAT!
